Installation
============
The easiest way is to install from pypi:
pip install apprise
Command Line
============
A small command line tool is also provided with this package called apprise. If you know the server url's you wish to notify, you can simply provide them all on the command line and send your notifications that way:
Send a notification to as many servers as you want to specify
apprise -t 'my title' -b 'my notification body' \
'mailto://myemail:mypass@gmail.com' \
'pbul://o.gn5kj6nfhv736I7jC3cj3QLRiyhgl98b'
If you don't specify a --body (-b) then stdin is used allowing you to use the tool as part of your every day administration:
cat /proc/cpuinfo | apprise -t 'cpu info' \
'mailto://myemail:mypass@gmail.com'
Developers
==========
To send a notification from within your python application, just do the following:
import apprise
# Create an Apprise instance
apobj = apprise.Apprise()
# Add all of the notification services by their server url.
# A sample email notification
apobj.add('mailto://myemail:mypass@gmail.com')
# A sample pushbullet notification
apobj.add('pbul://o.gn5kj6nfhv736I7jC3cj3QLRiyhgl98b')
# Then notify these services any time you desire. The below would
# notify all of the services loaded into our Apprise object.
apobj.notify(
title='my notification title',
body='what a great notification service!',
)
