Code a notification trigger

Pick a system to trigger a notification. Write code to have this system make an HTTP POST request to tattler server’s API.

In curl the request to send notification password_changed in scope mywebapp to user your@email.com looks like this:

curl -X POST 'http://127.0.0.1:11503/notification/mywebapp/password_changed/?user=your@email.com'

Notice the 3 essential parameters:

  1. The scope name: mywebapp

  2. The event name: password_changed

  3. The recipient ID: your@email.com

You usually do not provide the user’s address from the triggering system. Instead, your backend systems only provide some ID (e.g. user ID) from which tattler resolves all necessary contacts by itself with an addressbook plug-in.

You currently have 3 APIs to call tattler:

  1. an HTTP API

  2. A high-level python API.

  3. A low-level python API.
