Release v1.6.0
Details
📣 New Notification Services:
💡 Features
-
mqtt://
added log entry on successful transmission for both consistency and to align with other plugins (#946) -
Refactored URLBase() object to prepare for API Webhook support in the Apprise API (#973)
-
A global change to handles
user=
directive a better and auto-solves ambiguous situations where the URL looks like this:schema://username@hostname?user=username2
(#947).In the past the
username
would get lost and be trumped withusername2
. This is fine, but to may Apprise more versatile, Now in these circumstances Apprise will interpret it as:schema://password@hostname?user=username
. This change does not disrupt other common formatting such as:schema://username:password@hostname
schema://username@hostname
schema://hostname?user=username&password=password
-
Default Attachment maximum attachment size changed from 5MB to 1GB (be3baed). This just makes it easier to use the API and CLI without issues. It lets the upstream service complain if the attachment is too large instead of Apprise restricting you.
-
xml://
custom URL parsing better handles customized XML elements (inserted, renamed and deleted); (#945). -
Configuration now supports Groups. You can now assign pre-defined tags to groups and trigger your notifications off of them. (#967)
-
Groups are processed at the end, so there is no requirement to define it at the front or end of your configuration files.
-
Group definitions stack as well (so defining the same group again with append any entries to what was already assigned.
-
You can assign more groups to groups
-
You can assign multiple groups in one single declaration
-
Here is a simple TEXT example:
# assign "tag1" and "tag2" to the group "group" group = tag1, tag2 # Group assigned to a group plus another tag groupA = group, tag3 # Support multi-assignments (also stackable) # both groupB and groupC would acquire tag1 and tag4 groupB, groupC = tag1, tag4 # Append another tag into a group already defined group = tag4 # Just some URLs defined as examples tag1 = mailto://credentials tag2 = mailto://credentials tag3 = mailto://credentials tag4 = mailto://credentials
If you were to send your notification to the tag
group
it would in fact trigger bothtag1
,tag2
, andtag4
:apprise -g 'group' -b "Test Message!"
-
Here is a simple YAML example:
# You must define a groups section groups: group: tag1, tag2 groupA: group, tag3 group: tag4 # Support multi assignments: groupB, groupC: tag1, tag4 # Another way you can define your groups: groupD: - tagX: Place an optional comment here; this is ignored and only tagX is retrieved - tagY: Another spot to place an optional comment # You can also just list them: groupG: - tag1 - tag3 - group # Define your tags as usual here: urls: - json://localhost: - tag: tag1 - form://localhost: - tag: tag2 - mailto://credentials: - tag: tag3 - mailto://credentials: - tag: tag4
