Summary

The author of this text is a developer who has been working on improving notifications in their pipeline using the Dagger notify module, which allows sending notifications to Slack and Discord from a Dagger pipeline. This was popular among community members, with one implementation even being adopted by a company evaluating Dagger for production use. The author then learned about Novu, an open-source notifications infrastructure platform that makes it easy to programmatically manage transactional notifications to multiple destinations with a simple cross-language API. Inspired by the success of the Dagger notify module, the author created a Novu module using the Novu Go library, which allows sending notifications to Slack, Discord, email, and SMS with a single call to the Dagger CLI. The module is still in development, but it has the potential to greatly simplify notification management for developers.
