Apprise

Notifications are now handled by apprise. Apprise lets you send notifications to a large number of supported notification services. Check https://github.com/caronc/apprise/wiki for a detailed list.

To enable Apprise notifications, make a copy of apprise_config.template_json in the config directory and name it apprise_config.json. Then add apprise formatted urls for your desired notification services as json blobs.

Apprise Example blobs:

[
  {
  "url": "tgram://{bot_token}/{chat_id}"
  },
  {
  "url": "twilio://{AccountSID}:{AuthToken}@{FromPhoneNo}/{PhoneNo}"
  },
  {
  "url": "slack://{OAuthToken}/#{channel}"
  }
]

Pavlok

To enable shock notifications to your Pavlok Shockwatch, store the url from the pavlok app in the pavlok_config.json file, you can copy the template from pavlok_config.template_json.

WARNING: This feature does not currently support adjusting the intensity, it will always be max (255).

{
  "base_url": "url goes here"
}

Testing notifications

Once you have setup your apprise_config.json you can test it by running python app.py test-notifications from within your pipenv shell. This will send a test notification to all configured notification services.
