MQTT is compatible via Apprise Notifications https://juftin.com/camply/command_line_usage/#send-a-notification-using-apprise-compatible-services

[juftin]

pipx install "camply[apprise]"

Your APPRISE_URL env variable / config entry would be in the following format:

mqtt://hostname/topic
mqtt://user@hostname/topic
mqtts://user:pass@hostname:9883/topic

Let me know what your experience is like with that.

pipx install "camply[apprise]"

export APPRISE_URL=xxxxxxxxxxxx
camply test-notifications --notifications apprise

You may, or may not need to perform a dependency injection into the pipx environment to make that work

pipx inject camply paho-mqtt

I'm monitoring with MQTT Explorer. I've tried all the options for apprise under MQTT URL, and camply seems to send the test notification just fine, but I receive nothing on the MQTT feed. Any ideas?

[brayStorm]

pipx install "camply[apprise]" doesn't work, but pipx install apprise does. 🤷

Did you end up getting this to work @brayStorm? I noticed it's marked as closed.

[brayStorm]

Yes! Had to run pipx install apprise.
