This page tells you how to get set up Backy notifications.
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notifications can be sent on command list completion and failure.
|
|
|
|
The supported platforms for notifications are email (SMTP) and [Matrix](https://matrix.org/).
|
|
|
|
Notifications are defined by service, with the current form following below. Ids must come after the service.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
notifications:
|
|
mail:
|
|
prod-email:
|
|
host: yourhost.tld
|
|
port: 587
|
|
senderaddress: email@domain.tld
|
|
to:
|
|
- admin@domain.tld
|
|
username: smtp-username@domain.tld
|
|
password: your-password-here
|
|
|
|
matrix:

matrix:
|

home-server: your-home-server.tld
|
|
room-id: room-id
|
|
access-token: your-access-token
|
|
user-id: your-user-id
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Sections recognized are `mail` and `matrix`
|
|
|
|
There must be a section with an id (eg. `mail.test-svr`) following one of these sections.

To get your access token (assumes you are using [Element](https://element.io/)) :
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to the account you want to get the access token for. Click on the name in the top left corner, then "Settings".
|
|
2. Click the "Help & About" tab (left side of the dialog).
|
|
3. Scroll to the bottom and click on `<click to reveal>` part of Access Token.
|
|
4. Copy your access token to a safe place.
|
|
|
|
To get the room ID:
|
|
|
|
1. On Element or a similar client, navigate to the room.
|
|
2. Navigate to the settings from the top menu.
|
|
3. Click on Advanced, the room ID is there.
|
|
|
|
{{% notice info %}}

Make sure to quote the room ID, as [YAML spec defines tags using `!`](https://yaml.org/spec/1.2.2/#3212-tags).
