Add IFTTT Service to get much more interaction possibilities #33

At the moment the integrations for notifications are manually added into the code. To get more personalized notification possibilities you can add an IFTTT service. So the users are more flexible to choose how they want to be notified and can trigger at "car is charged to x%" notification a IOT device at home or can write something in a google docs s.o.

Just an idea to do less manual API configurations in out PWA

Already thought about it, but never had the chance to focus on this. Useful idea. I hope I will find some time very soon.

Currently, with API and new beta WebHook feature introduced soon, you can achieve something similar, but IFTTT is of course way easier to Integrate.

Just tested a bid with ifttt. Its possible to create a personal web hook so only by wget some url you can trigger whatever you want. Users has to paste the web hook url and needs to setup his account with an event for example "car_battery_full" and after that evnotify can trigger his event.

In my case the living room lights blink if car is full. (reaching the threshold as an example)
