Setup Webhooks to send notification to Bark

[hywell 1]

I am configuring the webhook to send notifications to Bark. At this stage the webhook only supports the post method and there is no way to customize the content of the post request.How do I configure a webhook to send notifications to bark?

Hi, what does bark expect?

https://github.com/finb/bark

Get:

  Url

/:BarkKey/:body 
/:BarkKey/:title/:body 
/:BarkKey/:category/:title/:body 

Post:

  Json:

    { "body": "Test Bark Server", "title": "Test Title", "badge": 1, "category": "myNotificationCategory", "sound": "minuet.caf", "icon": "https://day.app/assets/images/avatar.jpg", "group": "test", "url": "https://mritd.com" }

OK so the post body needs to be formatted differently .That means one of two things needs to happen:

• A community member could build a bark plugin with everything about the notification tailored for Bark
• Or you'll need something intermediary to receive the Emby webhook, such as IFTTT, and then you can parse the Emby web hook, transform the data as needed and then pass it along to Bark.

So in terms of the plugin route, we have lots of examples, such as:

I am going to write the corresponding plugin by myself, where is the corresponding material for reference?

The easiest thing to do is start here to learn how to create plugins:

But for the most part you should be able to clone an existing notification plugin. we have a bunch that you could use as an example. This might be the simplest one:
