#prowlnotify Irssi Plugin

prowlnotify is a simple script to send push notifications from Irssi to the iPhone via Prowl (http://prowl.weks.net/).

It was originally based on BCOW's awayproxy.pl script which automatically marks you as away when your last IRC client disconnects from Irssi's proxy. Given my use of Irssi proxy, this was a perfect starting point.

By default, prowl will only send notifications when you are marked as away. This behavior can be toggled using the /prowl command:

/prowl auto	the default, send push notifications on away
/prowl off	disable push notifications
/prowl on	always send push notifications

Installation

1. Create a text file in ~/.prowlkey containing your Prowl API key.
2. Copy the script into Irssi's scripts dir (typically ~/.irssi/scripts/)
3. /script load prowlnotify.pl

TODO

• Use Irssi's settings_get_str/settings_add_str functions for storing the prowl key?
