    Apprise - Push Notifications that work with just about every platform!

  • For stuff that only supports email, I used mailrise. It's a mail gateway that uses apprise to convert emails to notifications. I ended up having to build this myself from source because there was a bug in apprise involving markdown and long messages in discord that isn't in the released apprise builds. Hopefully that'll get updated soon so you can use the official docker images.

  • mailrise

    An SMTP gateway for Apprise notifications.

  • I ended up having to build mailrise from source so I could change it to use the nightly build of apprise instead of version 1.1 (which still had the bug). I actually just went back and tested that apprise 1.2 seems to be splitting both markdown and text messages properly for discord. I'll have to build an updated mailrise docker image and try again there. I'll file an issue if I run into problems.

  • discord-sh

  • For systems that can run scripts I went with discord.sh. It's a bash script that sends text to discord. I use this to send the output of stuff like apt list --upgradable to discord.
