Notica Notifications
- Source: https://notica.us/
- Icon Support: No
- Message Format: Text
- Message Limit: 32768 Characters per message
Account Setup
Notica doesn't require you to create an account at all. You just have to visit their website at least once to both:
- Get your token
- Enable Browser Notifications (to be sent from the Notica website)
The website will generate you a URL to post to that looks like this:
https://notica.us/?abc123
This effectively equates to: https://notica.us/?{token}
Note: disregard the question mark on the URL as it is not part of the token.
From here you have two options, you can directly pass the Notica URL into apprise exactly how it is shown to you from the website, or you can reconstruct the URL into an Apprised based one (which equates to slightly faster load times) as: notica://{token}
Syntax
Valid syntaxes are as follows:
https://notica.us/?{token}
notica://{token}
For self hosted solutions, you can use the following:
notica://{host}/{token}
notica://{host}:{port}/{token}
notica://{user}@{host}/{token}
notica://{user}@{host}:{port}/{token}
notica://{user}:{password}@{host}/{token}
notica://{user}:{password}@{host}:{port}/{token}
Parameter Breakdown
Variable | Required | Description |
---|---|---|
token | Yes | The Token that was generated for you after visiting their website. Alternatively this should be the token used by your self hosted solution. |
A self hosted solution allows for a few more parameters:
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 xml:// and 443 for all xmls:// 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. |
Example
Send a notica notification:
# Assuming our {token} is abc123
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
notica://abc123
Header Manipulation
Self-hosted solutions may require users to set special HTTP headers when they post their data to their server. This can be accomplished by just sticking a hyphen (-) in front of any parameter you specify on your URL string.
# Below would set the header:
# X-Token: abcdefg
#
# Assuming our {hostname} is localhost
# Assuming our {token} is abc123
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
"notica://localhost/abc123/?-X-Token=abcdefg"
# Multiple headers just require more entries defined with a hyphen in front:
# Below would set the headers:
# X-Token: abcdefg
# X-Apprise: is great
#
# Assuming our {hostname} is localhost
# Assuming our {token} is abc123
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
"notica://localhost/abc123/?-X-Token=abcdefg&-X-Apprise=is%20great"
