PushArmor command-line client

Send links and text to your own devices from a terminal. Everything is end-to-end encrypted: the relay server only passes on data it cannot read.

See https://pusharmor.com for the apps and the full guide.

Install

We recommend pipx. It installs the cryptography package for you:

pipx install pusharmor

Or download pusharmor.py from the GitHub release, check its SHA-256 against pusharmor.py.sha256 from the same release, and run it with Python:

sha256sum -c pusharmor.py.sha256
python3 pusharmor.py --help

The single file needs the cryptography package. Install it from your distribution:

sudo apt install python3-cryptography    # Debian and Ubuntu
sudo dnf install python3-cryptography    # RHEL, Fedora, and related

Commands

  • pusharmor login - log in this device (open the link it shows, then paste the code).
  • pusharmor pair - list your devices; pusharmor pair ID pairs with one: compare the fingerprint on both devices, then confirm or reject.
  • pusharmor send TEXT - send a link or text to all paired devices; --to ID for one, --text to send a link as plain text. With - or piped input it reads stdin.
  • pusharmor listen - print messages as they arrive; --json, --tsv, or --exec PROG (runs PROG ID NAME PLATFORM TYPE BODY per message).
  • pusharmor rename NAME - change the name your other devices show.
  • pusharmor logout - log out; keys and paired devices stay on this device.
  • pusharmor delete ID - remove a device from your account (this device too). It asks first; without a terminal it needs --yes.

Run pusharmor COMMAND --help for details. Files live in ~/.config/pusharmor (or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pusharmor, $PUSHARMOR_CONFIG, or --config DIR).

Exit codes

Code Meaning
0 success
1 error: a failed request, a damaged or unreadable file, or a failed write on this device
2 wrong command line, or the command needs a terminal
3 not logged in, logged out, or this device was removed
4 send failed for at least one device, or there is no device to send to
70 an unexpected error in PushArmor; please report it
75 the relay server is busy or unreachable; try again later
130 stopped with Ctrl-C

Needs

  • Linux or macOS. Windows is not supported yet.
  • Python 3.9 or newer.
  • The cryptography package (version 3.3.2 or newer). pipx installs it for you.
