[RELEASE] NTFY Notifier Driver

This is a lightweight, secure Hubitat driver that lets you send push notifications via ntfy.sh or your own self-hosted NTFY server.

Built with simplicity and flexibility in mind, this driver works out of the box with the hosted ntfy.sh service — but is equally ready for self-hosted setups (including with authentication, custom ports, etc.).

:white_check_mark: Features

  • Fully compatible with ntfy.sh and self-hosted NTFY
  • Supports HTTPS or HTTP
  • Optional title and priority headers
  • Integrates cleanly with Hubitat's "Notification" capability
  • Designed for fast, lightweight usage with minimal setup

:package: Install via Hubitat Package Manager (HPM)

  1. Open HPM
