HologramPlusAPI

What does this project do?

This lightweight project enhances the Hologram.io Rest API for sending messages by adding useful features & variables. These include:

NOTE: You can use the demo server over at http(s)://s.samdd.me/hologram if you don't want to host your own instance. See DiscordZero for an example of real world usage.

Here are some examples of what you can do:

Basic hello world

hologram.php?key=KEY|DEVICEID

[12:30] Hello world! (No message specified)

Variables

hologram.php?key=KEY|DEVICEID&body=IP={$IP$}

IP=34.168.56.2


hologram.php?key=KEY|DEVICEID&body=The time is {$time$}

The time is 12:30


hologram.php?key=KEY|DEVICEID&body=Hello{$nl$}World

Hello
World


hologram.php?key=KEY|DEVICEID&body={$pre$}Example title{$nl2$}Lorem ipsum

[12:30]: Example title

Lorem ipsum

Formatting

hologram.php?key=KEY|DEVICEID&title=Test&body=Hello world

[12:30]: Test: Hello world


hologram.php?key=KEY|DEVICEID&title=Notification{$nl$}&body=Lorem ipsum

[12:30]: Notification:
Lorem ipsum

SMS configuration

Overflow

By default messages are split into multiple SMS, though this can easily be change by using the ?overflow parameter.

overflow=multiple     (default) Messages will be split into multiple SMSs
overflow=trim         Messages will be trimmed so that they are 160 characters long
overflow=fail         Messages will not be sent if they exceed 160 characters

Timezone

By default HologramPlusAPI uses the Europe/London timezone, but this can easily be changed by specifying the ?timezone parameter. Refer to the timezone lists here

timezone=America/New_York     Change the {$time$} variables to the New York timezone.

Footer

Normally only one message is sent (aka the title+body). You can specify a message to be sent after all the other messages are sent by using the ?footer parameter. Example:

footer=//END OF MESSAGE      Send a separate SMS after the main one(s)

Sandbox

If you want to test out your messages without actually sending them, add the &sandbox parameter to the URL.

https://s.samdd.me/hologram?key=KEY&id=DEVICEID&timezone=America/New_York&body={$time2$}
