Quick start

Install the CLI, pair your phone, and send an update. Have the BotPager app  installed on your phone before pairing.

1. Install

curl -fsSL https://botpager.reostack.com/cli/install.sh | bash

irm https://botpager.reostack.com/cli/install.ps1 | iex

npm install --global @reostack/botpager

Follow any printed PATH instructions, then check:

botpager --version

2. Pair

botpager pair

In the app, choose Pair a computer, scan the QR code or enter the pairing code, and confirm the computer. Keep the terminal open until pairing finishes. If this computer and phone are already paired, skip this step.

3. Send

botpager devices
botpager send -d "Your phone name" --title "Hello from BotPager" "Your terminal can reach you now."

Replace Your phone name with the exact name shown by botpager devices. Open Inbox on that phone to see the message. A saved message is available there even if notifications are disabled.
