I have an app I’ve been working on – might be of use to some folks here:
Fang It … aka fangit
https://github.com/disuye/fangit
Basically – if you have a Github account & the Github iOS/Android app installed, fangit leverages Github infrastructure to send you real time (realistically <30 seconds) push mobile notifications of watched folders, watched files, watched file extensions, +/- regex word triggers (i.e: scan foobar.log lines for “failure” or “potato salad”).
Home Assistant already does this … but how do you know if HA has failed? What if you’re watching some other machine not integrated with HA? Run fangit, and with a tiny bit of setup, you have a parallel notification & alert channel.
All details on my github. Free & open source, runs on macOS Monterey 12+ Universal and Linux Ubuntu 24 ARM64 & x86_64
Any questions, hit me back! Will also build for Windows if someone wants to take the time (Qt 6.7.3, no dependencies).
Cheers,
Dan
