About:
Notify is a flexible tool that streams output from any command-line interface and forwards it to various notification services. It supports a wide range of platforms including Slack, Discord, Telegram, and email, allowing for seamless integration into existing workflows. This utility is ideal for automating alerts and monitoring tasks, ensuring you stay updated on critical events without constant manual oversight.
Key Features:
  • Multi-platform support (Slack, Discord, Telegram, SMTP, etc.)
  • Pipes standard output from any CLI command
  • Simple configuration via YAML or CLI flags
  • Supports custom message formatting and templates
Use Cases:
  • Sending alerts from monitoring scripts to a team Slack channel
  • Notifying on job completion or failure in CI/CD pipelines
  • Forwarding logs or specific command outputs to a private Telegram bot
Alternatives:
  • ntfy – ntfy is a standalone pub-sub notification service, while Notify is focused on piping CLI output to various endpoints.
  • curl – Using raw curl commands is more manual and less feature-rich for templating and managing multiple integrations.
