cohost-notification-server

Deliver cohost notifications to an IFTTT Webhook.

This repo is not affiliated with cohost.

Setup

1. Clone the repo & install the dependencies

   git clone git@github.com:mogery/cohost-notification-server.git
   cd cohost-notification-server
   npm i

2. Create your IFTTT Applet like so:

   

3. Get your IFTTT Webhook. You can find the link by clicking on the Documentation button on this site. The correct link will be under the "To trigger an Event with 3 JSON values" heading. When you have the link, you should replace {event} with cohost_notification.

4. Create a .env file in the root directory of the repo. Inside you should set 3 values. COHOST_EMAIL should be set to the e-mail address of your cohost account. COHOST_PASSWORD should be your cohost password. IFTTT_WEBHOOK should be the Webhook link that you just got. Make sure that you replaced {event} with cohost_notification.

   Here's an example .env file (fill it out with your own info though):

   COHOST_EMAIL=eggbug@cohost.org
   COHOST_PASSWORD=hunter2
   IFTTT_WEBHOOK=https://maker.ifttt.com/trigger/cohost_notification/with/key/randomstringofcharacters

Usage

node index.js

It will crash if cohost goes down, so you should probably pair it with forever:
