Linuxgsm: [Alerts] New Notification platforms

[NickParks]

Im Hijacking this post to list the work being done on alerts. @dgibbs64

The following alert systems are being added

Working on now:

• [x] Pushbullet
• [x] Email
• [x] IFTTT
• [x] Discord
• [x] Telegram
• [x] Pushover
• [x] Email API (MailGun)
• [x] Rocket.chat
• [x] Slack
  Ones being looked in too:
• [ ] Syslog
• [ ] SNMP
• [ ] Trello
• [ ] Cachet
• [ ] Sendgrid

Hello,

So I was looking at the monitor functions and noticed it only has push bullet & email support.

These are perfectly fine and usable, but I was thinking that it would be nice to also include support for Telegram or Discord?

Obviously both would take extra configurations and such just like the rest but I feel it would make life a lot easier for people (especially the Discord one considering how many people are starting to transfer over to discord).

I understand these would take time and there's higher up things on the priority, but just a thought :)

And if it's not too much of a hassle would it be difficult to add a method to send a POST request to a specified URL? Could include data like server name/details/etc. Personally I would find this super useful as a replacement for my current monitoring system.

Sweet ideas. Telegram API seems to be pretty similar to Pushbullet. A post to an URL shouldn't be that hard to implement. As for Discord, i don't know about their API, but it seems to be pretty well elaborated, so seems doable.

[dgibbs64]

Yeah this is a great idea. I think discord support would be really great. @Scarsz I think might be the best person for this one

Integration with Discord seems to be very easy as well :)

It can also be made compatible with Slack, which makes it automatically compatible with Discord.

To sum up, requested platforms are:

• Discord
• Slack
• Telegram
• Pushover
• More... ?

Rework to alert functions will probably be required.

[NickParks]

Little late to reply.

But yes, basically the most used gaming services which are Discord, Telegram, etc. As well whatever the staff/development team may use which is slack/telegram.

And if possible to add a straight up POST mechanic into it, it may not work with all services but it definitely opens the door for more possibilities without having to have you guys add them for us.

Could give you a little bash script for discord+Webhook if you are interested and didnt already work that one out^^

[dgibbs64]

@faflfama Yeah that would be great. Im working on other areas currently so haven't had a chance to look in to this yet. So any exmaples would be awesome 👍

[derklompi]

Telegram is now up and running https://github.com/GameServerManagers/LinuxGSM/wiki/Telegram

It will be available next release

[MarkL4YG]

I'd like to throw in "Cachet" into the list.
Documentation here

Edit:I'd wait for the next stable release though since there are major changes under way. I'll keep you updated of course if theres interest in this.

[dgibbs64]

It's a bit corporate but HipChat would be nice as well.

Any chance for Slack in the foreseeable future?
