Details

📣 New Notification Services:

• Pagertree Support added. (#817) - Thanks @armiiller
• Voip.ms Support added. (#814) - Thanks @phea
• Misskey Support added. (#831)

💡 Features

• ntfy:// added support for Icons now.
  • In addition to this, one can specify avatar_url= keyword argument to point to their own custom one (#822)
• ntfy:// support for Authentication Tokens (in addition to user/pass) (#830)
• form// has a new parameter called attach-as which allows you to over-ride the meta field id (such as file01, file02, etc) assigned to files (attachments) in the payload. (#827)
  • Some servers expect the post to come as meta01, or document, etc. Setting this value does not have any impact until 1 or more attachments are also part of the payload.
  • Simply set this ?attach-as=document, or ?attach-as=meta*. the * allows for support of multiple files. Apprise will spit out a warning if you don't provide a * when over-riding this AND you send more then 1 attachment up.

The async Re-factoring

The async_notify() handling was completely re-factored in this release. The changes properly implement the function as how it was intended to work. Previously the design was arranged in such a way to remain backwards compatible with Python v2.

After this release the following works for those who want to leverage it:

from apprise import Apprise

async my_async_function():

    # Now you can use the async_notify() call
    await apobj.async_notify(
        body='what a great notification service!',
        title='my notification title',
    )

Note: There is no breaking change to those using the notify() call however the the asynchronous handling was changed beneath it.

🐛 Bugfixes

• mqtt:// unsigned certificates can skip their verification if the user chooses to verify=No to behave like other services (#825)
• Added missing dependency python3-certifi to Apprise RPM (093cc27)
• form:// now no longer throws an exception when an attachment is provided (#826)
