A simple tracking pixel generator that uses ntfy for pixel access alerts.
Each pixel is associated with a tag and a timestamp that are included in the access notification. This service is stateless, meaning it has no database - pixel-associated info is stored in the pixel URL itself.
This service is meant to be self-hosted and single-user. To prevent unauthorized usage, the ntfy topic doubles as a password, and must be provided when the pixel is generated.
Environment variables needed (a .env file can be used for this):
NTFY_TOPIC: The ntfy topic - this MUST be 32 characters long (if not provided, a topic is auto-generated and printed to the console).NTFY_TOKEN: A ntfy access token (optional).NTFY_SERVER_URL: The ntfy server URL (optional - defaults to ntfy.sh).PORT: The port to listen on (optional - defaults to3000).
