Pass-It-On

A library that provides simple notification client and server that receives messages and passes them on to endpoints.

Key Features

• A configurable server that monitors interfaces and passes notifications to endpoints.
• A configurable client to use as part of a binary to send notifications to the server.
• Traits to support extension of Interfaces and their inclusion in the configuration file.
  • Interface
  • InterfaceConfig
• Traits to support extension of Endpoints and their inclusion in the configuration file.
  • Endpoint
  • EndpointConfig

Interfaces

Interfaces can be used for both the server and the client.

| Interface | Description | |-----------|--------------------------------------------------------| | HTTP | Communication using the HTTP protocol. | | Pipe | Communication using a FIFO Named Pipe. (Unix Only) |

Endpoints

Endpoints are the destinations for notifications received by the server.

| Endpoint | Description | |--------------|---------------------------------------| | Regular File | Write notifications to a file. | | Matrix | Send notifications to Matrix room(s). |

Configuration

The Server and Client support configuration via a TOML file. At least one interface must be setup for a Client and at least one interface and endpoint must be setup for the Server.

Server Configuration Example

```toml [server] key = "sdfsf4633ghf44dfhdfhQdhdfhewaasg"

[[server.interface]] type = "pipe" path = '/path/to/pipe.fifo' groupreadpermission = true

[[server.interface]] type = "http" port = 8080

[[server.endpoint]] type = "matrix" homeserver = "example.com" username = "test1" password = "pass" sessionstorepath = '/path/to/session/store/matrixstore' sessionstorepassword = "storepass123"

[[server.endpoint.room]] room = "!dfsdfsdf:example.com" notifications = ["notificationid1", "notificationid2"]

[[server.endpoint.room]] room = "#matrix-room:example.com" notifications = ["notification_id4"]

[[server.endpoint]] type = "file" path = '/testdata/fileendpoint.txt' notifications = ["notificationid1", "notificationid3"] ```

Client Configuration Example

```toml [client] key = "sdfsf4633ghf44dfhdfhQdhdfhewaasg"

[[client.interface]] type = "pipe" path = '/path/to/pipe.fifo' groupreadpermission = true

[[client.interface]] type = "http" ip = "192.168.1.2" port = 8080 ```
