<![CDATA[How to invoke sendNotification from a outside shell script]]>Hi,

I wanted to send a notification to modules from a shell script.
How can I send notifications to magicmirror modules from external application or script?

Please help me?

So if your external app can touch the endpoint, It can convert it to MagicMirror notification.

Example of using IFTTT.

in one of my implementations, i write a file in the outside script, and my MM modules looks for the file and then processes it… which then sends notifications to other modules…
you could also use tcp/ip sockets, or websockets, or … there is no single builtin way
