Nice idea! But why go all the way with the python venv etc? Just using curl + GCM would seem quite sufficient.

(oh, and: don't you need some app installed either way for receiving the notifications on your phone?

That's correct. Pushbullet does not have any complicated session handshake and management so just a simple request with predefined headers and content will suffice. I use it this way with logstash http output.

You'll have to use the Pushbullet app to receive these notifications.
