Gotify is a lightweight, self-hosted server for sending and receiving notifications in real time. It provides a simple REST API for publishing messages and a WebSocket stream for subscribing to them, with a built-in web interface for users and administrators.

Key Features

  • Send notifications via REST API using application tokens
  • Receive messages in real time via WebSocket connections
  • Web UI for viewing messages and managing the server
  • User, client, and application management
  • Plugin system for extending server functionality

Use Cases

  • Push alerts from scripts, CI jobs, and homelab services to a central inbox
  • Provide a lightweight in-house notification hub for internal tools
  • Replace third-party push services for privacy-focused notification delivery

Gotify is designed to be simple, privacy-friendly, and easy to deploy while still supporting common notification workflows through its API, web UI, and extensibility options.
