## FORM HTTP POST Notifications
|
||||||
|
* **Source**: n/a
|
||||||
|
* **Icon Support**: No
|
||||||
|
* **Attachment Support**: yes
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is just a custom Notification that allows you to have this tool post to a web server as a simple FORM (`application/x-www-form-urlencoded`). This is useful for those who want to be notified via their own custom methods.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The *type* will be one of the following:
|
||||||
|
* **info**: An informative type message
|
||||||
|
* **success**: A successful report
|
||||||
|
* **failure**: A failure report
|
||||||
|
* **warning**: A warning report
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Syntax
|
||||||
|
Valid syntax is as follows:
|
||||||
|
* `form://{hostname}`
|
||||||
|
* `form://{hostname}:{port}`
|
||||||
|
* `form://{user}:{password}@{hostname}`
|
||||||
|
* `form://{user}:{password}@{hostname}:{port}`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The secure versions:
|
||||||
|
* `forms://{hostname}`
|
||||||
|
* `forms://{hostname}:{port}`
|
||||||
|
* `forms://{user}:{password}@{hostname}`
|
||||||
|
* `forms://{user}:{password}@{hostname}:{port}`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Parameter Breakdown
|
||||||
|
| Variable | Required | Description
|
||||||
|
| ----------- | -------- | -----------
|
||||||
|
| hostname | Yes | The Web Server's hostname
|
||||||
|
| port | No | The port our Web server is listening on. By default the port is **80** for **form://** and **443** for all **forms://** references.
|
||||||
|
| user | No | If you're system is set up to use HTTP-AUTH, you can provide _username_ for authentication to it.
|
||||||
|
| password | No | If you're system is set up to use HTTP-AUTH, you can provide _password_ for authentication to it.
|
||||||
|
| method | No | Optionally specify the server http method; possible options are `post`, `put`, `get`, `delete`, and `head`. By default if no method is specified then `post` is used.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note:**: If you include file attachments; each one is concatenated into the same single post to the upstream server. The `Content-Type` header request also changes from `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` to `multipart/form-data` in this case.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Example
|
||||||
|
Send a FORM Based web request to our web server listening on port 80:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Assuming our {hostname} is my.server.local
|
||||||
|
apprise form://my.server.local
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Header Manipulation
|
||||||
|
Some users may require special HTTP headers to be present when they post their data to their server. This can be accomplished by just sticking a plus symbol (**+**) in front of any parameter you specify on your URL string.
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Below would set the header:
|
||||||
|
# X-Token: abcdefg
|
||||||
|
#
|
||||||
|
# Assuming our {hostname} is localhost
|
||||||
|
# Assuming our {port} is 8080
|
||||||
|
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
|
||||||
|
"form://localhost:8080/path/?+X-Token=abcdefg"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Multiple headers just require more entries defined:
|
||||||
|
# Below would set the headers:
|
||||||
|
# X-Token: abcdefg
|
||||||
|
# X-Apprise: is great
|
||||||
|
#
|
||||||
|
# Assuming our {hostname} is localhost
|
||||||
|
# Assuming our {port} is 8080
|
||||||
|
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
|
||||||
|
"form://localhost:8080/path/?+X-Token=abcdefg&+X-Apprise=is%20great"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Payload Manipulation
|
||||||
|
The payload can have entries added to it in addition to the default `body`, `title`, and `type` values. This can be accomplished by just sticking a colon symbol (**:**) in front of any parameter you specify on your URL string.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Below would set the header:
|
||||||
|
# X-Token: abcdefg
|
||||||
|
#
|
||||||
|
# Assuming our {hostname} is localhost
|
||||||
|
# Assuming we want to include app=mysystem as part of the payload:
|
||||||
|
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
|
||||||
|
"form://localhost/?:app=payload"
|
||||||
|
```
