This gist describes how to send messages via push to your phone using pushover API

pushover.py

import requests

USER_TOKEN = u'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' #replace with your user key
APP_TOKEN = u'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' #replace with your APP token/key

HEADERS = { "Content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" }

def sendPush(message, title, url, url_title):
    parameters = { u'token': APP_TOKEN,
                    u'user': USER_TOKEN,
                 u'message': message,
                   u'title': title,
                     u'url': url,
               u'url_title': url_title }
    r = requests.post(u'https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json', data=parameters, headers=HEADERS)
    print(r.headers)
    if r.status_code == requests.codes.ok:
        print(u'Push sent successfully')
    else:
        print(u'Error sending push')
