ntfy service

[jpmens]

ntfy sends push notifications to your phone or desktop using PUT/POST.

This would be a nice candidate for mqttwarn. ntfy is fully floss.

Takers for writing the code? :-)

Sweet idea! Apprise already has a corresponding plugin, contributed by @particledecay the other day - see [1]. Either it can be used as a blueprint, or it may alternatively be used with the Apprise mqttwarn service plugin [2,3] already.

I also vote for @particledecay. He's done good work with the apprise plugin. 😄 ❤️

Hi again,

7c37406 adds documentation and a simple test case about notifications via ntfy, using Apprise.

Cheers,
Andreas.

Hello,

I try to used ntfy with mqttwarn, I can send a message on topic I want with my title but I don't find how to send tags or priority. I use this configuration :

[config:ntfy]
; Dispatch message to ntfy.
; https://github.com/caronc/apprise/wiki/URLBasics
; https://github.com/caronc/apprise/wiki/Notify_ntfy
module   = 'apprise_single'
baseuri  = 'ntfys://xxxxx:[email protected]:443/maison/monitoring'

[ntfy]
targets = ntfy
title = {title}
topic = {topic}
tags = {tags}
priority = {priority}

And I send this : {"message":"coucou","topic":"maison","tags":"grinning lady_beetle","priority":"max"}. I received message but without tags and priority.

How can I pass this parameters ?

Thank in advance.

I think we use apprise for that, so you'll have to check their documentation

Hello,
Yes it's what have done but it seen mqttwarn don't pass tags and priority parameters

[zoic21]

For information I find how to solve that :

[config:http]
timeout = 60
loglevel = DEBUG
targets = {#method     #URL               # query params or None                              # list auth # Json
  'ntfy' : [ "post",  "https://ntfy.XXXXX.net", None, ('xxxxx', 'xxxxx'), True],
  }

[ntfy]
targets = http:ntfy

Then I send : {"topic":"xxxx","message":"coucou","priority":5,"tags":["grinning","octopus"]}

[jpmens]

Thanks for reporting back, @zoic21, and glad you got it working.

Dear Loïc,

thank you for reporting your observations, and good that you have been able to make it work already.

On the other hand, I took the chance to improve the mqttwarn <-> Apprise integration with GH-619 in a more generic manner. It enhances the situation when aiming to propagate parameters to all Apprise plugins, so it will also support your use case well, as documented by 468a6e2. I will be happy if you could support us in discussing and testing this improvement.

With kind regards,
Andreas.

Hi again,

mqttwarn 0.32.0 has been released with the improvements from GH-619. Feedback about it is very welcome.

@zoic21: As mentioned at #619 (comment), please let us know if you have additional needs in this area, for example to submit the topic field through the data dictionary.

With kind regards,
Andreas.

Hi.

Based on a use case introduced by @sevmonster we've explored recently (see GH-632), we are adding a dedicated ntfy service plugin with GH-638 now, in order to have better control about all the details when communicating with the ntfy HTTP API. I will be happy about any comments and suggestions.

With kind regards,
Andreas.

Hi.

After adding a dedicated ntfy service plugin with GH-638, this comment intends to track a few corresponding backlog items. Feel free to add more suggestions and wishes.

• Support for access token authentication.

With kind regards,
Andreas.
