I love LubeLogger. I've totally switched both my and my wifes cars to it for tracking gas mileage and maintenance.
If anyone would like, I can share how I got ntfy notifications working with it for maintenance reminders.
My only beef with LubeLogger (and it's a pretty minor one, given it's just the one dev) is the lack of a mobile app. I've used aCar since 2012. I have years of data logged, and IMO, having periodic reminders and widgets available at a single tap is a bit more favorable than a PWA.
I am very curious about ntfy though. Please do share.
You install the ntfy app on your phone and subscribe to channels which then can/will alert.
I poked around and it's a bit more involved than that.
You can use their public server if you want, otherwise you can spin up your own on a cheap/free VPS.
Ntfy's public server costs money. Something that's need-to-know when suggesting an app to someone who's curious about its functionality.
I already have a small cluster that I run shit on, so that's they way I would take.
they have paid features, but it is very useful even with just the free features and limits
Ah, I responded above thinking you already had ntfy set up. Ntfy is so cool, I definitely recommend taking a look at it. I use it for notifications from Home Assistant, Uptime Kuma, Proxmox, etc. There are other similar things out there like Gotify, but I seem to prefer ntfy.
how do you use it with proxmox, and for what kind of notifications?
From the GUI go to Datacenter - Notifications. Add a Notification Target of the Webhook type. Mine looks like this:
collapsed inline media
See the ntfy documentation for different types of authorization, tags (emojis), etc.
Then edit the default Notification Matcher and enable your new target.
By default I get notifications of successful/failed backup jobs. I want to set something up for drive health using SMART, but I'm just sitting down to figure that out now.
oh nice! I see this is a relatively new feature. thanks!
I use a few of those already (HA, Proxmox, etc), I'll have to check it out later.
