Pipe output to a notification service

[hvalev]

Hi, since this project is essentially automating away the task of updating the quality profiles and custom formats for media, it would also make sense to be able to send the output of the tool as a notification to an array of services. Gotify and Apprise come to mind. I'm not sure what the best way to do that is, but below is an ad-hoc solution with the CLI from apprise. Perhaps it may be worthwhile to include it in the docs if anyone else is interested.

./trash radarr --config config.yml | apprise -vv 'discord://xxx/yyy'

There are also log files that you can tail or do a cat to pipe out whole files to wherever you want after commands are done running. Note that by default, log files are more verbose than command line output (effectively the same as using the --debug option)

For sure, log files will always be better. This is simply so that you can receive periodic updates (e.g. weekly) somewhere and you don't have to make a mental note to log in and read logs to check if everything is working fine. The benefit for me in piping the command output is that it runs at the specified time of the cron job executing the trash updater. And you do get warnings if there are discrepancies. Anyway, thank you for this handy tool and the ARM64 support!
