Gotify Notifications

Source: https://github.com/gotify/server
Icon Support: No
Message Format: Text
Message Limit: 32768 Characters per Message

Syntax

Valid syntaxes are as follows:

gotify://{hostname}/{token}
gotifys://{hostname}/{token}
gotifys://{hostname}:{port}/{token}
gotifys://{hostname}/{path}/{token}
gotifys://{hostname}:{port}/{path}/{token}
gotifys://{hostname}/{token}/?priority=high

Secure connections (via https) should be referenced using gotifys:// where as insecure connections (via http) should be referenced via gotify://.

Parameter Breakdown

Variable	Required	Description
hostname	Yes	The Gotify server you're sending your notification to.
token	Yes	The Application Token you generated on your Gotify Server
port	No	The port the Gotify server is listening on. By default the port is 80 for gotify:// and 443 for all gotifys:// references.
path	No	For those that host their Gotify server on a hostname that requires you to specify an additional path prefix may just include this as part of their URL string (the default is '/'). What is important here is the final entry of your URL must still be the token.
priority	No	The priority level to pass the message along as. Possible values are low, moderate, normal, and high. If no priority is specified then normal is used.
format	No	The message format to announce to Gotify. By default all information is identified as `text`. But you can alternatively set this value to `markdown` as well.

Example

Send a Gotify message:

# Assuming our {hostname} is localhost
# Assuming our {token} is abcdefghijklmn
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
   "gotify://gotify.server.local/abcdefghijklmn"

# If your server is being hosted elsewhere and requires you to specify an
# additional path to get to it, you can notify it as follows:
# Assuming our {hostname} is localhost
# Assuming our {token} is abcdefghijklmn
# Assuming our {path} is /my/gotify/path/
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
   "gotify://gotify.server.local/my/gotify/path/abcdefghijklmn"

There is also markdown support if you want to leverage it; simply add format=markdown into your URL:

# Assuming our {hostname} is localhost
# Assuming our {token} is abcdefghijklmn
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
   "gotify://gotify.server.local/abcdefghijklmn?format=markdown"
#                                                ^      ^
#                                                |      |

Setup

Here is how I set up a quick Gotify server to test against. This may or may not be useful to other people.

Docker

Based on this source:

# Docker (assuming a connection to docker.io)
sudo docker pull gotify/server

sudo docker run -p 80:80 -v /var/gotify/data:$(pwd)/data gotify/server
# Then visit http://localhost
