Notifications with Bash
Reading of notifications is not supported, but setting notifications is.
LoxBerry 1.0.3
This function is available starting with LoxBerry V1.0.3. If you use that function, set this minimum version in your plugin.cfg.
Easy notification (notify)
An easy notification can be set with the following code. The parameters are equivalent to LoxBerry::Log::notify
Syntax
notify <package> <name> "<Message>" [err]
For the package, use your plugin's folder name (in Perl/PHP this is $lbpplugindir).
The name parameter defines a name of the group the notification belongs to.
The message needs to be quoted, otherwise it is not seen as one parameter from the notify function.
Set the fourth parameter to "err" or "error" to indicate an error. If you omit this parameter, it will be set as an informational notification.
Example
notify
# Source the functions. Don't forget the dot in front, followed by a white-space . $LBHOMEDIR/libs/bashlib/notify.sh # Do anything in your script # ... # An error notification notify sonos daemon "The Sonos daemon has a communication problem." err # An info notification notify backup cronjob "The backup was successful."
Extended notification (notify_ext)
The extended notification can add additional attributes to a notification. The parameters listed below are equivalent to them of LoxBerry::Log::notify_ext.
The parameters PACKAGE, NAME, MESSAGE and SEVERITY are mandatory. At all, only 9 parameters are possible, therefore you can add up to 5 custom attributes along to the mandatory fields.
Example
notify
# Source the functions. Don't forget the dot in front, followed by a white-space . $LBHOMEDIR/libs/bashlib/notify.sh # Do anything in your script # ... # An error notification notify_ext PACKAGE=sonos NAME=daemon MESSAGE="The Sonos daemon has a communication problem." SEVERITY=3 customattribute="hello how are you?" additionalattribute="Welcome" # An info notification notify_ext PACKAGE=sonos NAME=daemon MESSAGE="The Sonos daemon has a communication problem." SEVERITY=6 customattribute="hello how are you?" additionalattribute="Welcome"
