Gotify is my favorite container and enjoy having a dedicated notification system that is self-hosted and I can have other apps send to it locally without having to go out to the cloud. For Apple devices, you have to use Safari and save it to the homescreen as an app and then you will have access to it but it does not support notify bubbles. Nothing "as an app" on iOS will thanks to Apple's lock-downs lol. Thanks for such a great and quick tutorial! Can't wait to see the Ansible video!
I'm really excited to be using Gotify and am kicking myself a bit with regards to waiting so long to use it. Ansible still scares me a bit, but we'll see what happens. I've got 2 playbooks running for updates (1 for LXCs and 1 for VMs) and they will run Saturday and Sunday morning, so that'll be when I know for sure that things are working. Once I know that things are working, I'll be doing a high-level overview on my setup, but won't be making any actual Ansible content for a while I don't think. Thanks for your help getting it set up!
I don't think this has anything to do with "apple lock-downs" there is nothing in their TOS that I can think of that would prohibit this as an app. I'd say they're just too lazy to be bothered, more than anything. If someone on their team would be interested, I'd be willing to help. - Signed, an iOS developer
I received an email from someone this morning with regards to an app for Gotify for iOS and they sent a link. Apparently there *is* an app, but I'm not sure if it's an official app: apps.apple.com/us/app/igotify/id6473452512?ign-itscg=30200&ign-itsct=apps_box_badge
@DBTechYT Thank you for mentioning my app, iGotify! :) It’s not an official app from the Gotify developers. The issue is that the Gotify developer would need a developer account to send notifications to iPhones, but he doesn’t want to purchase one. That’s why I started developing the app and the necessary container that listens to the Gotify WebSocket for receiving and sending notifications. Greets androidseb25
I'm still getting my head wrapped around it, so I'm not sure how long it's going to be before I make and actual Ansible videos. I'm planning on doing an overview of my new setup at some point in the near future, but it'll be a very high-level overview :)
Gotify has been on my list of things to try out for notifications. Cool video, I think it will be very helpful in my work flow, as I am doing some minor re-architecting of my homelab
I use a Telegram bot as the notification method for Uptime Kuma. I just finished watching your tutorial video and plan to put it into practice tomorrow.
@@LordXaosa Maybe they don't want to rely on a 3rd party messaging service and would rather have everything happen on their own setup. Why do you care that someone else is going to use a different service?
Do you have a video that shows/talks about your full hardware setup.. especially interested in processing capacity and power draw at the wall and what runs on all that :)
My setup is a bit overkill for what I'm actually doing, but I like to have more overhead than I need for stuff. I've got this video that shows what I'm hosting (or what I was hosting back in April): th-cam.com/video/JomK2bzad78/w-d-xo.html And I've got this that shows what my hardware setup was and how I consolidated it recently: th-cam.com/video/ekXSB_v8LMg/w-d-xo.html
Great video, but one small addition, if you do not expose this server to the Internet, you will receive notifications only when you are connected to the local network via VPN or another method.
im missing something here. you setup gotify and setup a notification in uptimekuma but how did gotify know where to send the notification. if i installed the app on my samsung phone how you gotify know where to send the notification. sorry for the dumb question.
Not a dumb question if you don't know the answer. Messages are sent to Gotify from, in this case Uptime Kuma. They sit in the Gotify database for the user that setup the App Token (API Token if you will). On your phone app for Gotify you would login to your Gotify instance. The phone app will monitor your instance of Gotify and will notify you of new messages in your instance of Gotify as it checks for new messages. Hope that clears this up for you
When you set up the app on your phone, it will ask you to put your gotify URL and account credentials in and then the app on your phone will log into your gotify server. If you want notifications when you're away from home, you'll need to set up a reverse proxy for gotify to be available outside your network
I might in the future when I've got a chance to install a setup that doesn't use ZFS. Everything I've got uses ZFS, but Podman doesn't support it currently :(
Go here: gotify.net/docs/install On that page there's a section that shows the different images you can use for different plaforms. Find the one for your device and change the image in the docker-compose to that and then try

Hi Trying to tie in two of your recent videos on Gotify and MySpeed. Can anyone please explain the format of 'Finished message' and 'Error message' in the Gotify Integration of MySpeed. Thanks
the demonstration is right there in the pre-filled text in the setup. Those are the variables you can use: %ping% ms %download% Mbps %upload% Mbps %error% So your Finished Message might be something like: Speed test complete. Your Ping was %ping% ms. Your Upload/Download speeds were: %download% / %upload% Mbps Your Error Message field might be: During the latest run the system encountered an error of: %error% You can customize your messages with those variables.
@@DBTechYT Hi Thanks for the quick response. Your outlined messages format was similar to my attempts. This led me to look again at the other entries. I had the server address ending with a trailing '\'. Like this: W.X.Y.Z:8200/ When I removed the back slash messages were sent. Thank you for your time. Thanks
I want help sir I want to connect SSD of my computer with Chromebook and the SSD have Windows 10 installed in it so how can i run Windows and other Windows applications from ssd in chromebook
You can go back into the app and see them on your dashboard. I actually keep them there until I do the update. Then, as I do each update, I delete the notification so I know it's done :)

I'm having my morning coffee, and had clicked off and zoned out a bit until I hear "Nope, that's wrong. So wrong." and had to see what happened haha
I like to leave the little goofs in there :)
Hey DB I'm looking forward to the ansible vids.

Great Video. Gotify is Spectacular!
Thank you for watching! I'm glad you like gotify!
Great video. Same as you I put it off but makes keeping the homelab up and running so easy.
Yes it does!
I use a Telegram bot as the notification method for Uptime Kuma. I just finished watching your tutorial video and plan to put it into practice tomorrow.
That's awesome! I'm glad the video was helpful/informative for you :)
What for? Why telegram is not enough?
@@LordXaosa Maybe they don't want to rely on a 3rd party messaging service and would rather have everything happen on their own setup. Why do you care that someone else is going to use a different service?
@@DBTechYT just curious.
@@LordXaosa The Telegram bot notification is enough, but I added Gotify as another notification method too, just for fun!😁😁😁

Yes, you are right
I also see in your list of VMs "ntfy". Any thoughts on which one is better?
Honeslty I only installed nfty because someone asked me a similar question. Gotify seems like a MUCH better application
Great video as usual.
thank you so much!!

Welcome back 🙂

Thank you so much.

Good video as always. Would you be able to create a serie of projects based on your content using Podman?
I might in the future when I've got a chance to install a setup that doesn't use ZFS. Everything I've got uses ZFS, but Podman doesn't support it currently :(
How does it not support zfs? I've not run into problems despite running on zfs
Do you have Docker Compose for Raspberry Pi?
I tried to install it through Casaos but they are not compatible

I want help sir I want to connect SSD of my computer with Chromebook and the SSD have Windows 10 installed in it so how can i run Windows and other Windows applications from ssd in chromebook
Not possible the way you're explaining it. ChromeOS (or whatever it's called these days) can't run Windows applications
Really cool!
Thanks for watching and commenting :) I hope you enjoy Gotify!
Is it possible to snooze the alerts (PC and Android) ? I have a habit of swishing alerts away and then forgetting about them 😅
You can go back into the app and see them on your dashboard. I actually keep them there until I do the update. Then, as I do each update, I delete the notification so I know it's done :)
Cool
Happy-B
Thank you!!
