Server start/stop and container names

[the4tress]

Love this project!

Would it be possible to also listen for server start/stop messages and pass the container name? I have multiple containers running on a server and would like to be able to know which server somebody joined.

Yes, that's a reasonable idea.

I'll add some kind of message template so you can customize what's in the messages.

I'm feeding all of this into a Node-RED flow and pushing to Slack. The template idea would be great!

I realized this morning it would be useful to have an option to just send a JSON object rather than a formatted message, so I'll do that too. Had not heard of Node-RED so I'll take a look at that.

Thanks for the responsiveness! I'll get a short video of how I'm using Node-RED put together so you can see the flow. Basically its GUI programming working with JSON objects.

Pretty close to releasing the next version, but it's getting late here.
I had a play with Node-RED while testing and got an interesting flow going. Thanks for letting me know about it.

Sorry to pile on, but I had one more request for parsing/returning data. I recently needed to use the user's xuid to update the permissions.json. Would you be able to return that as well?

[edward3h]

Yes I can do that. I made a note on #7

I released 0.3. Check the main project page for the updated instructions and let me know how you get on!

Awesome, thank you! I'm out this weekend but will definitely give it a shot next week.

Thanks!!
