An Efficient Linux-specific login monitor for your Pushover. It pushes you when someone logins on your machine. Written in C, uses almost no resources beacuse of Inotify, /var/log/lastlog and cURL.

This program can't work without Pushover. Get yourself one if you haven't already: https://pushover.net

You need to create an application token (i.e. register) to use this program.

It is easy as pie: just go over https://pushover.net/apps/build (assuming that you are logged in) and fill the form. You'll be redirected to a page with your token.

Mind that you can use it on Linux machines only.

Clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/somu/pushlogind.git
cd pushlogind

Then you configure it. Use ./configure -h to see all avaliable params. There are two mandatory params: --user for your user token and --token for your application token (go over “Registration” chapter of this README if you don’t know what it is). For example:

./configure --user aynQmp6OfoHzu1oF2vPWc0dDhO1HTB \
            --token arYm28oFmGHzuo5nAmpOwQ8mfOamoq

Configure script is written in Python, so if you haven’t got it, go directly to src/config.h and make the changes as described there in the comments.

Then run make install to compile the program and will put it into /usr/bin. It will also put an init script to /etc/init.d if the folder is detected. Alternatively you can run make and decide yourself where to put it.

See ya!
