# A small guide on getting started with Apprise notifications.


## Standalone docker container: [linuxserver/apprise-api](https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/apprise-api)

Set up the docker compose as preferred:
```yaml
---
version: "2.1"
services:
  apprise-api:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/apprise-api:latest
    container_name: apprise-api
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Etc/UTC
    volumes:
      - /path/to/apprise-api/config:/config
    ports:
      - 8000:8000
    restart: unless-stopped
```

Then browse to the webui.

Here you'll click **Configuration Manager**, read the overview and then click on **Configuration**.
Under **Configuration** you'll craft/paste your notification config.

The simplest way is just paste the url's as is (like in the example above).  
There are many ways to customize with tags, groups, json and more. Read [caronc/apprise-api](https://github.com/caronc/apprise-api) for more info!  

Look at the [apprise wiki: Notification Services](https://github.com/caronc/apprise/wiki) for more info about how the url syntax for different services works.  


You can also use the [caronc/apprise-api](https://github.com/caronc/apprise-api) to host the api as a frontend to an already existing **Apprise**-setup on the host.


### Customize the **notify.sh** file.
After you're done with the setup of the container and tried your notifications, you need to follow the configuration setup (explained in detail in the README).
Briefly: Copy `default.config` to `dockcheck.config` then edit it to change the following, `APPRISE_URL` matching your environment:

```bash
NOTIFY_CHANNELS="apprise"
APPRISE_URL="http://apprise.mydomain.tld:1234/notify/apprise"
```

That's it!

## On host installed **Apprise**
Follow the official guide on [caronc/apprise](https://github.com/caronc/apprise)!

### A brief, basic "get started"

- Install **apprise**
    - python package `pip install apprise`
    - packaged in EPEL/Fedora `dnf install apprise`
    - packaged in AUR `[yay/pikaur/paru/other] apprise`

- Create a config file with your notification credentials (source of notifications):
```ini
mailto://user:password@yahoo.com
slack://token_a/token_b/token_c
kodi://example.com
```
Then either source the notifications with `-c=/path/to/config/apprise` or store them in *PATH* to skip referencing (`~/.apprise` or `~/.config/apprise`).

- Test apprise with a single notification:
    - `apprise -vv -t 'test title' -b 'test notification body' 'mailto://myemail:mypass@gmail.com'`
- Set up your notification URL's and test them.
    - Look at the [apprise wiki: Notification Services](https://github.com/caronc/apprise/wiki) for more info about how the url syntax for different services works.  

### When done, customize the **notify.sh** file.
After you're done with the setup of the container and tried your notifications, you can copy the `notify_apprise.sh` file to `notify.sh` and start editing it.

Replace the url's corresponding to the services you've configured.
```bash
send_notification() {
Updates=("$@")
UpdToString=$( printf "%s\n" "${Updates[@]}" )
FromHost=$(hostname)

printf "\nSending Apprise notification\n"

MessageTitle="$FromHost - updates available."
# Setting the MessageBody variable here.
read -d '\n' MessageBody << __EOF
Containers on $FromHost with updates available:

$UpdToString

__EOF

# Modify to fit your setup:
apprise -vv -t "$MessageTitle" -b "$MessageBody" \
   mailto://myemail:mypass@gmail.com \
   mastodons://{token}@{host} \
   pbul://o.gn5kj6nfhv736I7jC3cj3QLRiyhgl98b \
   tgram://{bot_token}/{chat_id}/

}
```

That's all!
