Environment Options

• This can be a UNIX socket (unix://), Windows named pipe (npipe://) or TCP connection (tcp://). If it's a pipe or socket, be sure to mount the connection as a volume. If the connection is proxied, ensure that GET requests are allowed on the /containers endpoint.
• By default, this value is unset and the connection will use /var/run/docker.sock.

• 'pushbullet@your_api_key@your_device_id'
• 'pushover@your_user_key@your_app_api_token'
• 'discord@webhook_url'
• 'ntfy@topic_title'
• 'slack@bot_user_oauth_token@your_chat_id'
• 'gotify@server_url@app_token'
• 'telegram@your_bot_id@your_chat_id'
• 'apprise@apprise_url@config_id@tag' (Only one tag is supported, and server_avatar is not currently supported)
• 'matrix@https://matrix.org@user:matrix.org@access-token@room-id:matrix.org' (For Matrix, add the userid 'without' the leading @ sign. Values are server, userid, access-token, room-id)

Advanced NTFY Setting

Use these settings if you host your own Ntfy server, or otherwise require authentication to connect.

Item	Required	Description
CUSTOM_NTFY_SERVER	False	The URL for your self-hosted Ntfy server (Else will use https://nttp.sh)
NTFY_USER	False	The username to login (on ntfy.sh or your own server. Optional if you have your own server open)
NTFY_PASS	False	The password to login (on ntfy.sh or your own server)

This feature allows you to specify (with labels in your yaml) 'either' to monitor or exclude specific containers.

• If it is set to false, then all containers will be monitored, except for any containers with the following label:

   labels:
     monocker.enable: 'false'

• If it is set to true, only containers with the following label will be monitored

   labels:
     monocker.enable: 'true'

• If you just want to monitor everything, then set LABEL_ENABLE: 'false' or just leave it out altogether, and dont worry about labelling any other containers.
