 # donetick-notifier
 
+> AI disclaimer: AI was used solely for creating this README, the Gitea pipelines, and the base of the webhook consumer.
+
+A PowerShell-based notifier and webhook consumer for [Donetick](https://github.com/donetick/donetick) chores.
+
+The project now has two runtime paths:
+
+- A scheduled notifier that checks the Donetick external API for chores and sends Apprise-compatible summary notifications for overdue and due-today tasks.
+- A webhook consumer that listens on port `8080`, accepts Donetick webhook payloads, and turns them into Apprise notifications.
+
+## Features
+
+- Fetches chores from `https://<DONETICKHOST>:<DONETICKPORT>/eapi/v1/chore`.
+- Authenticates to Donetick with the `secretkey` header.
+- Sends one notification for overdue chores when any exist.
+- Sends one notification for chores due today when any exist.
+- Accepts webhook events for `task.completed`, `task.reminder`, and `task.created`.
+- Falls back to a generic notification for unknown webhook event types.
+- Runs the scheduler and webhook listener together in the Docker container.
+- Includes Gitea pipelines for Docker image publishing and security scanning.
+
+## How It Runs
+
+The container entrypoint is `main.sh`.
+
+- `supercronic` runs `Start-DoneTickNotifier.ps1` on the schedule defined by `JOB_SCHEDULE`.
+- `Start-DoneTickConsumer.ps1` runs in the foreground and listens on `http://+:8080/`.
+
+The notifier and consumer both use `AppriseNotification.psm1` to send messages to the configured Apprise webhook.
+
+## Configuration
+
+All configuration is provided through environment variables.
+
+| Variable | Required | Description |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `DONETICKHOST` | Yes | Donetick host name or IP address. Do not include `https://`. |
+| `DONETICKPORT` | Yes | Donetick HTTPS port. |
+| `DONETICKAPIKEY` | Yes | Donetick external API key. Sent as the `secretkey` header. |
+| `APPRISEWEBHOOKURL` | Yes | Apprise webhook URL that accepts notification posts. |
+| `APPRISEWEBHOOKTAG` | Yes | Apprise tag value to include with each notification. |
+| `JOB_SCHEDULE` | Yes for Docker | Cron expression used by the container scheduler, such as `0 8,17 * * *`. |
+| `TZ` | No | Container timezone, such as `America/Chicago`. Recommended so notification hours match your local time. |
+
+## Docker
+
+The published image is `docker.io/blinkfink182/donetick-notifier`.
+
+### Run
+
+```sh
+docker run -d \
+  --name donetick-notifier \
+  -p 8080:8080 \
+  -e DONETICKHOST=host.docker.internal \
+  -e DONETICKPORT=8787 \
+  -e DONETICKAPIKEY=your-donetick-api-key \
+  -e APPRISEWEBHOOKURL=https://apprise.example.com/notify/config \
+  -e APPRISEWEBHOOKTAG=all \
+  -e JOB_SCHEDULE="0 8,17 * * *" \
+  -e TZ=America/Chicago \
+  docker.io/blinkfink182/donetick-notifier
+```
+
+### Docker Compose
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  donetick-notifier:
+    container_name: donetick-notifier
+    image: docker.io/blinkfink182/donetick-notifier
+    ports:
+      - 8080:8080
+    environment:
+      - DONETICKHOST=host.docker.internal
+      - DONETICKPORT=8787
+      - DONETICKAPIKEY=your-donetick-api-key
+      - APPRISEWEBHOOKURL=https://apprise.example.com/notify/config
+      - APPRISEWEBHOOKTAG=all
+      - JOB_SCHEDULE=0 8,17 * * *
+      - TZ=America/Chicago
+```
+
+Run it with:
+
+```sh
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+If Donetick and Apprise are on the same Docker network, use service names instead of `host.docker.internal`.
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  donetick-notifier:
+    image: docker.io/blinkfink182/donetick-notifier
+    ports:
+      - 8080:8080
+    environment:
+      - DONETICKHOST=donetick
+      - DONETICKPORT=8787
+      - DONETICKAPIKEY=your-donetick-api-key
+      - APPRISEWEBHOOKURL=http://apprise:8000/notify/config
+      - APPRISEWEBHOOKTAG=all
+      - JOB_SCHEDULE=0 8,17 * * *
+      - TZ=America/Chicago
+```
+
+## Build Locally
+
+```sh
+docker build -t donetick-notifier .
+```
+
+```sh
+docker run -d \
+  --name donetick-notifier \
+  -p 8080:8080 \
+  -e DONETICKHOST=host.docker.internal \
+  -e DONETICKPORT=8787 \
+  -e DONETICKAPIKEY=your-donetick-api-key \
+  -e APPRISEWEBHOOKURL=https://apprise.example.com/notify/config \
+  -e APPRISEWEBHOOKTAG=all \
+  -e JOB_SCHEDULE="0 8,17 * * *" \
+  -e TZ=America/Chicago \
+  donetick-notifier
+```
+
+## Run Without Docker
+
+PowerShell 7 or newer is recommended.
+
+Scheduled notifier:
+
+```powershell
+$env:DONETICKHOST = "donetick.example.com"
+$env:DONETICKPORT = "8787"
+$env:DONETICKAPIKEY = "your-donetick-api-key"
+$env:APPRISEWEBHOOKURL = "https://apprise.example.com/notify/config"
+$env:APPRISEWEBHOOKTAG = "all"
+
+pwsh ./Start-DoneTickNotifier.ps1
+```
+
+Webhook consumer:
+
+```powershell
+$env:APPRISEWEBHOOKURL = "https://apprise.example.com/notify/config"
+$env:APPRISEWEBHOOKTAG = "all"
+
+pwsh ./Start-DoneTickConsumer.ps1
+```
+
+The consumer listens on port `8080` by default. Stop either script with `Ctrl+C` when running interactively.
+
+## CI/CD
+
+This repository includes Gitea workflows for:
+
+- Building and pushing the Docker image on manual dispatch.
+- Tagging images as `latest` for `main`, as the ref name for `v*` tags, and as `test` for everything else.
+- Running security checks with Gitleaks, Semgrep, and Trivy.
+- Creating Gitea issues for security findings when `GITEA_TOKEN` is configured.
+- Sending Apprise notifications for Docker build success or failure.
+
+The security workflow runs on pushes, pull requests, and manual dispatch. On push, it also builds the image so Trivy can scan the resulting container.
+
+## API References
+
+The `Donetick/` directory contains request examples and collection metadata used to document and exercise the Donetick API while developing the notifier.
