And another Emby Notification Plugin. I swear it will be the last one, but when i had a look at the Mastdon Client API i thought that all of the bits and pieces where already there in my other two plugins. I dont even know if that Plugin is useful for anyone.
Okay it took my longer than i thought because on the one hand i didnt know that Mastodon would silently reject statuses with more than 500 Characters, while accepting an empty user-agent while GoToSocial does it vis-a-vis. This 500 Chracter feature was hard to track down because the test notifications always worked.
Nevertheless, here now we have a plugin which uses the Mastodon Client API to post Notifications of your Emby Server to a Mastodon, GotoSocial or any other Server of your choice that implements that API. Now you can inform friends and family about the newest stuff on your Emby Server, or show them what you have watched in the past.
Please keep in mind that especially bigger Instances have rate limits for Bots, so please dont spam around. Or you setup your own instance like a small GoToSocial one, that magnificent piece of software is perfect for that.
Like always you can get tha Plugin on Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/bjoerns1983/Emby.Plugin.MastodonNotification
