feature request: ntfy token support

[ksurl]

add support for access tokens: https://docs.ntfy.sh/config/#access-tokens in place of username:password

[piksel]

You can simply just omit the username, and it should work I think?

[ksurl]

no it gets a 401 unauthorized. using this format: ntfy://:token@ntfy.domain/topic

it works with a query param with generic webhook like generic+https://ntfy.domain/topic?auth=param

you generate the param string with echo -n "Bearer TOKEN" | base64 | tr -d '='

[MyWay]

+1 for this

ntfy://:token@ntfy.domain/topic does seem to work for me but I'm unable to get the title to display, only shows a random 12 characters when using ntfy://:token@ntfy.domain/topic?Title=foo. Other params like Tag and Priority do work however.

[piksel]

@cwschulz Applications can override the title, which is probably why it's a random string (I'm guessing it's the docker container hostname). If you are using watchtower you can add the --notification-skip-title flag to keep the title in the query string.

Which version are you using and in what app? It was not working when i first opened this issue. Good news if its in the release version now.

[ksurl]

this is now supported with #377

use generic+https://ntfy.$DOMAIN/topic?@authorization=Bearer+$TOKEN

[mrjackyliang]

Can the documentation be updated to show examples on how I can best use this?

I read the implementation and tests and I only have a subset of knowledge on how I can leverage it.

[piksel]

Yeah. I plan to add native support for this as well in the ntfy service though, so I think that when I get time to work on this I would rather do that.

Awesomeness! Thanks for working on it!!

I was about to make a long post about @cwschulz's suggestion working in Watchtower, but I now think that this issue is probably just missing a commit that enables this feature, because even using shoutrrr directly works:

$ docker run -it --rm containrrr/shoutrrr --version
shoutrrr version 0.8.0

$ docker run -it --rm containrrr/shoutrrr send -u ntfy://:tk_3fxREDACTED@ntfy.DOMAIN/TOPIC -m 'shoutrrr CLI'
Notification sent

I didn't see anything in the Ntfy service documentation about tokens being supported. A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one
