node-xbmc-notify

Send notifications to your XBMC from Node.js

It looks like my slightly bulkier project is being used almost exclusively for XBMC notifications. If that's the case, I'd rather release a more lightweight version that does only that.

Install:

npm install xbmc-notify

TL;DR Usage:

var xbmc = require('xbmc-notify');

// Optional config
xbmc.config({
  host     : "<xbmc host>:<port>",   //defaults to 127.0.0.1:8080
  user     : "<xbmc user>",          //defaults to null
  password : "<xbmc password>"       //defaults to null
  title    : "<msg title>"           //defsults to 'xbmc-notify'
  image    : "<optional image URI>"  //defaults to null
});


xbmc.notify("This is a title", "This is a message", "<optional image URI>");

Methods

This is an optional configuration object with the following properties:

• host - XBMC host and port
• user - XBMC user
