Lunasea Notifications

Overview

Valid syntax is as follows:

  • lunasea://{toFireBaseUser}
  • lunasea://{toFireBaseUser1}/{toFireBaseUser2}/{toFireBaseUserN}
  • lunasea://+{toFireBaseDevice}
  • lunasea://+{toFireBaseDevice1}/{toFireBaseDevice2}/{toFireBaseDeviceN}

You can mix and match as well:

  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@/+{toFireBaseUser1}/{toFireBaseDevice1}/

This works the exact same way; you can just additionally specify your connection details to your local server:

  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@{hostname}/{toFireBaseUser}
  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@{hostname}/{toFireBaseUser1}/{toFireBaseUser2}/{toFireBaseUserN}
  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@{hostname}/+{toFireBaseDevice}
  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@{hostname}//+{toFireBaseDevice1}/{toFireBaseDevice2}/{toFireBaseDeviceN}
  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@{hostname}:{port}/{toFireBaseUser}
  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@{hostname}:{port}/{toFireBaseUser1}/{toFireBaseUser2}/{toFireBaseUserN}
  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@{hostname}:{port}/+{toFireBaseDevice}
  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@{hostname}:{port}//+{toFireBaseDevice1}/{toFireBaseDevice2}/{toFireBaseDeviceN}

Note: The {user}/{pass} is purely optional.

You can mix and match as well:

  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@{hostname}/+{toFireBaseUser1}/{toFireBaseDevice1}/
  • lunasea://{user}:{pass}@{hostname}:{port}/+{toFireBaseUser1}/{toFireBaseDevice1}/

Use lunaseas:// for a Secure (https://) connection and lunasea:// for Insecure (http://).

lsea:// and lseas:// can also be used as an alias to lunasee:// and lunaseas:// (respectively) if you choose.

VariableRequiredDescription
to*NoOne or more Firebase User IDs or Device IDs p you wish to send your notification to. You can use comma’s to separate multiple entries if you wish.
imageNoMap the image associated with the notification type to the payload. By default this is set to no.
modeNoThe default mode to treat the URL provided as. Possible values are cloud and private. This is detected if no otherwise specified. When set to private, a hostname must be provided as part of the URL. When set to cloud, all elements are presumed to be notification end points and https://lunasea.app is used. In cloud mode, all transactions are secure (regardless if you specify lunasea:// or lsea://).
VariableDescription
overflowThis parameter can be set to either split, truncate, or upstream. This determines how Apprise delivers the message you pass it. By default this is set to upstream
👉 upstream: Do nothing at all; pass the message exactly as you received it to the service.
👉 truncate: Ensure that the message will fit within the service’s documented upstream message limit. If more information was passed then the defined limit, the overhead information is truncated.
👉 split: similar to truncate except if the message doesn’t fit within the service’s documented upstream message limit, it is split into smaller chunks and they are all delivered sequentially there-after.
formatThis parameter can be set to either text, html, or markdown. Some services support the ability to post content by several different means. The default of this varies (it can be one of the 3 mentioned at any time depending on which service you choose). You can optionally force this setting to stray from the defaults if you wish. If the service doesn’t support different types of transmission formats, then this field is ignored.
verifyExternal requests made to secure locations (such as through the use of https) will have certificates associated with them. By default, Apprise will verify that these certificates are valid; if they are not then no notification will be sent to the source. In some occasions, a user might not have a certificate authority to verify the key against or they trust the source; in this case you will want to set this flag to no. By default it is set to yes.
ctoThis stands for Socket Connect Timeout. This is the number of seconds Requests will wait for your client to establish a connection to a remote machine (corresponding to the connect()) call on the socket. The default value is 4.0 seconds.
rtoThis stands for Socket Read Timeout. This is the number of seconds the client will wait for the server to send a response. The default value is 4.0 seconds.
emojisEnable Emoji support (such as providing :+1: would translate to 👍). By default this is set to no.
Note: Depending on server side settings, the administrator has the power to disable emoji support at a global level; but default this is not the case.
tzIdentify the IANA Time Zone Database you wish to operate as. By default this is detected based on the configuration the server hosting Apprise is running on. You can set this to things like America/Toronto, or any other properly formated Timezone describing your area.

Send a LunaSea notification:

Terminal window
# Assuming our {FireBaseDeviceID} is abcd_abcd_abcd
# Send to a Device (make sure to add + at front):
apprise -t "Test Title" -b "Test Message" \
lunasea://+abcd_abcd_abcd
# Assuming our {FireBaseDeviceID} is abcd_abcd_abcd
# Assuming our {FireBaseUserID} is wxyz_wxyz_wxyz
#Send to a device (add +) and a user (optionally add @)
apprise -t "Test Title" -b "Test Message" \
lunasea://+abcd_abcd_abcd/@wxyz_wxyz_wxyz
# Running your own private server, no problem:
# Assuming our {hostname} is myhostname
# Assuming our {user} is user
# Assuming our {password} is pass
# Assuming our {FireBaseDeviceID} is abcd_abcd_abcd
# Assuming our {FireBaseUserID} is wxyz_wxyz_wxyz
apprise -t "Test Title" -b "Test Message" \
lunasea://user:pass@myhostname/+FireBaseDevice1/@FireBaseUserID
