[FEATURE REQUEST] IFTTT Webhook Notification

[DJay-X]

@potrudeau First of all thanks for your work on this plugin and sharing with the community. 🙏

At them moment I am using homebridge-notificationPlugin to get Notifications pushed to show in a fancy way that something was triggert. See Screenshot.
Unfortunately the plugin is not maintained since 3 years and I got the impression that is not working properly anymore. Im using 26 of this "build" notifications.

Do you see a way to integrate IFTTT Notification also to your messenger as a service?

With homebridge-notification the config looks like this

{
            "accessory": "Notification",
            "name": "Notify Wasserkocher ein",
            "ifttt_api_key": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
            "ifttt_event": "Kettle_on_03",
            "ifttt_message": "Wasserkocher ist eingeschaltet",
            "ifttt_mute_notification_interval_in_sec": 10
        },

It triggers a Webhook to IFTTT and the IFTTT App is then pushing a rich notification including an Image.

Thanks in advance for the time you invest and for your consideration.

IFTTT was always planned for this plugin! I should be available over the new few days.

The code is written and I'm currently testing. The last step before releasing is implemeting the Homebridge Plugin Settings GUI.

I will close this issue when the new version (0.0.5) will be released. ;)

Wow. Thanks for your fast reply and the positive feedback. This is awesome. Thank you so much.
Then I can finally switch to your plugin and still get richt text notifications including picture with IFTTT. 👍

However, is it also possible to use Pushover and include an image directly and a URL to open with your plugin right now?

Something like

"messages": [
              {
                  "type": "pushover",
                  "name": "Pushover message",
                  "text": "This is a test",
                  "sound": "pushover",
                  "device" : "iPhone",
                  "image" : "https://i.imgur.com/edPcUfc.png",
                  "url" : "evehome://",
                  "priority": 0
              },

Anyway, thanks again for your support and the time you are investing.

Pushover does not have an image property. But it could send HTML messages. I haven't implemented this but it could be done. Your texte could then have an html img in it.

[potrudeau]

IFTTT is now implemented. You can now use it, or use Pushover! ;P

Thanks @potrudeau
How can I use Pushover and IFTTT configured in the same config.json? 🤔

[DJay-X]

Figured it out. 😬

                    "type": "pushover",
