1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000 Welcome back to the deep dive. 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,680 So today we're looking at, well, it's more than just a piece of technology. 3 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:10,160 We're really examining kind of declaration of digital independence. 4 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:14,880 We're diving into how you can fundamentally reshape your infrastructure 5 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:20,000 to get total control over your real time alerts and your messaging. 6 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,240 Yeah, I mean, have you ever tried to automate a critical alert 7 00:00:23,240 --> 00:00:25,880 maybe from a server or just a home script? 8 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,360 And then you find the commercial service 9 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,840 you're relying on is, I don't know, rate limiting you. 10 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:34,320 Or even worse, it's gathering metadata about when your systems are under stress. 11 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,840 Exactly. That frustration that the lack of autonomy is precisely 12 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,240 what this project we're exploring today called Goatify was built to solve. 13 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,720 It's just a really elegant open source tool for self-hosted messaging. 14 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,560 And our mission today, especially for the learner, is to, you know, 15 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,960 cut through the jargon and show you the straightforward elegance of Goatify. 16 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:56,000 It's a simple, reliable, self-hosted solution to two pretty big problems. 17 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,960 Information overload and vendor lock-in with commercial push services. 18 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,800 So we're aiming for digital autonomy that's actually achievable. 19 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,280 Yeah, even for someone who's just starting out on their self-hosting journey. 20 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,360 And the promise is pretty powerful. 21 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:14,000 A straightforward, reliable way to push messages and get instant notifications 22 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,960 from all your services, all your scripts, all your devices. 23 00:01:17,960 --> 00:01:20,720 And it's all managed by you on hardware you control. 24 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:25,220 It's about being informed, but, you know, instantly without compromising your 25 00:01:25,220 --> 00:01:25,720 privacy. 26 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,760 And without relying on some centralized corporate gatekeepers. 27 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,280 Right. And of course, taking control of this kind of infrastructure 28 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,520 requires some reliable support, which brings us to our partner for this deep dive. 29 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,960 We want to thank the supporter of this deep dive, Safe Server. 30 00:01:39,960 --> 00:01:43,280 Safe Server handles the hosting of this type of self-hosted software 31 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,360 and actively supports you in your digital transformation, 32 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,480 which makes that jump to autonomy a whole lot simpler. 33 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:54,960 You can find more information about their services at www.safeserver.de. 34 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,800 Okay, so let's unpack this. Let's start with the genesis, the why. 35 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,760 I mean, why did the creators feel the need to build Goatify from the ground up? 36 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,160 You know, when services like email or even commercial push notifications 37 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,080 were already out there, what problem was left unsolved? 38 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,360 Well, what's fascinating here is that the motivation wasn't really 39 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,680 about inventing some totally new concept. 40 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:18,200 It was more about providing a rock solid 41 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,360 community maintained implementation of an old one. 42 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,520 They saw a pretty glaring gap in the open source world. 43 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,320 They needed a, and I'm quoting here, simple server for sending 44 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,320 and receiving messages in real time per WebSocket. 45 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,800 And the source material specifically mentions that a lot of the existing 46 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,960 open source notification projects were just abandoned. 47 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,760 Right. And imagine building a crucial piece of your infrastructure 48 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,240 on a platform that just suddenly stops getting maintained. 49 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,440 It introduces this fragility. 50 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,440 So the creators had this core non-negotiable requirement. 51 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,600 The tool had to be something that can be self-hosted and, 52 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,280 you know, maintained robustly. 53 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,040 And that need for self-hosting, that's the strategic pivot, isn't it? 54 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,680 Because when you look at the landscape, there are, as the source says, 55 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,480 many free and commercial push services out there. 56 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,080 But those services, they inherently know a massive amount 57 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,440 about the metadata of your operational environment. 58 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,600 Exactly. The core philosophical benefit, 59 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,440 which is also the practical benefit for you, is made really explicit. 60 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,920 You control your data. Think about it. 61 00:03:18,920 --> 00:03:22,240 When you route all your system alerts from backup complete 62 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,080 to server temperature critical through a third-party service, 63 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,480 well, that third party collects data. 64 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,520 Data on when you're busiest, how often your systems are alerting. 65 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,800 And what level of criticality they operate at. 66 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,760 That metadata trail can be incredibly revealing. 67 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,800 The Goatify just eliminates that exposure entirely. 68 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,720 It means the only entity that knows your server is panicking 69 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:46,000 at three in the morning is, well, you. 70 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,720 It fundamentally alters your privacy posture. 71 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,160 You aren't just gaining convenience. 72 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,640 You are literally removing a layer of trust and risk. 73 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,120 So, yeah, the value prop is simplicity, reliability, and total control. 74 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,040 So if that's the why, let's really dig into the what. 75 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,920 How does this system actually work? 76 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,320 What's the engine under the hood? 77 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,040 OK, so the heart of the project is the Goatify server. 78 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,720 And it's built around, let's say, three functional pillars 79 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,280 that all need to talk to each other. 80 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:11,440 Great. What's the first pillar? 81 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,680 Pillar one is sending messages. 82 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,120 This is handled through a REST API. 83 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,440 And we should probably break that down. 84 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,800 A REST API is just a perfectly standardized web address 85 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,200 you can send information to. 86 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,240 That's a great way to put it. 87 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:24,800 For a beginner, this is crucial. 88 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,360 It means any modern programming language, any shell script. 89 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,920 I mean, any web hook can push a message to Goatify 90 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,200 just by sending a structured web request. 91 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,840 So if I have a simple script that finishes a task, 92 00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:39,400 I can just use a quick command, like cURL, 93 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,200 to hit that API endpoint, push the message, 94 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:43,920 and Goatify just captures it. 95 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:44,800 Precisely. 96 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,120 The REST API is the standardized door for information 97 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,200 entering the system. 98 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:50,760 OK, so that's getting messages in. 99 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:51,960 What about getting them out? 100 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,520 That's pillar two, receiving messages. 101 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,600 And this is the real-time secret sauce. 102 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,400 It's handled via WebSocket. 103 00:04:58,400 --> 00:04:59,440 WebSocket. 104 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,240 So if the REST API is like placing an order at a counter? 105 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,080 Then the WebSocket is like having a direct, dedicated, 106 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,200 persistent telephone line that's always 107 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,840 open between your server and your client device, 108 00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:10,640 like your phone. 109 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,520 And that persistence is so important, isn't it? 110 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,400 I mean, why not just have the mobile app constantly check 111 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:17,800 the server every minute? 112 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:18,640 That process. 113 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:19,240 Polling, right? 114 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:20,520 Yeah, polling is slow. 115 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,720 And it's incredibly inefficient on the battery and the network. 116 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,240 For a true instant notification, you 117 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,400 really need that two-way persistent connection 118 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,120 that a WebSocket provides. 119 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,680 When the server gets that message via the REST API, boom, 120 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,520 it immediately sends it down the already open WebSocket 121 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:38,160 connection. 122 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,200 It's instant. 123 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,560 That does raise a critical question for mobile users, 124 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:42,400 though. 125 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,460 If that connection is persistent, 126 00:05:44,460 --> 00:05:46,300 the telephone line is always open. 127 00:05:46,300 --> 00:05:48,600 Doesn't that create a huge battery drain? 128 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,120 That's why people often rely on native Google or Apple 129 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:51,920 services. 130 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:52,920 That's a great question. 131 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,280 And it's where the advantage of using a modern lightweight 132 00:05:55,280 --> 00:05:58,360 protocol comes in, and also the fact it's written in Go. 133 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,760 While any persistent connection will use more power 134 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,760 than a sleeping one, the overhead is minimized. 135 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,080 The mobile clients are designed to manage that connection 136 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,160 efficiently, so the power drain is focused purely 137 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:10,580 on maintaining that link. 138 00:06:10,580 --> 00:06:11,240 That makes sense. 139 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:12,200 It's a key distinction. 140 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,100 And then there's pillar three, the admin side. 141 00:06:14,100 --> 00:06:14,600 Right. 142 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,640 The third function is just management. 143 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:18,640 This is straightforward but essential. 144 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,800 Creating users, generating specific API tokens 145 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,040 for your different applications, and controlling 146 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:25,480 which clients can connect. 147 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,360 And the great news is, you don't have 148 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,360 to live on the command line to do all this. 149 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:30,640 No, not at all. 150 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:35,000 The server, quoting again, includes a sleek web ooey. 151 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,440 For anyone new to this, that web interface 152 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,000 is your control panel. 153 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,140 It makes management infinitely easier. 154 00:06:41,140 --> 00:06:44,440 And you mentioned it's written in Go or Golang. 155 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,400 Why does that matter for someone just getting started? 156 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,560 Well, Go is famous for its stability. 157 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,040 It's really performant. 158 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,880 And it has an incredibly small memory footprint. 159 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,500 For a notification server that needs to run 247 160 00:06:56,500 --> 00:07:00,600 on minimal resources, maybe a tiny VPS or a Raspberry Pi. 161 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,560 Go provides that stability without the huge resource 162 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,280 overhead you'd get with other languages. 163 00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:06,040 Exactly. 164 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,700 And for the setup itself, the developers 165 00:07:07,700 --> 00:07:09,080 have made it dramatically simpler. 166 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,440 They automatically build Docker images on every single release. 167 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,140 Which is the gold standard for easy deployment now. 168 00:07:15,140 --> 00:07:17,520 If you know Docker, this means you can install the entire 169 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,160 Go Defy server with all its dependencies perfectly 170 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,320 contained in just a few commands. 171 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,040 And that isolation is critical for keeping your notification 172 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,160 service stable and separate from everything else on your server. 173 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,200 This is where it gets really interesting for me, 174 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,920 because a server is pretty useless without clients, right? 175 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,480 Go Defy isn't just a back end. 176 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,200 It's a full ecosystem. 177 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:37,960 It is. 178 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,120 And the most important component for daily use 179 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,600 is obviously the mobile client, Go Defy Android. 180 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:44,920 This is the app on your phone that 181 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,880 subscribes to that persistent message stream via the web 182 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:48,400 socket. 183 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,680 So My Server Script pushes a message. 184 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,240 The Go Defy server gets it via that REST API. 185 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,800 And the client instantly displays it. 186 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,320 What does the app actually do when it gets the data? 187 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,520 It creates a standard traditional push 188 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,920 notification right on your phone screen. 189 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,000 And this is how your internal infrastructure 190 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,480 can alert you instantly. 191 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,960 But, and this is the crucial part, 192 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,560 without ever involving Google's push services. 193 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,280 Which guarantees that end-to-end data control. 194 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,480 I do see the source material has the legal note 195 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,520 about Google Play and the Google Play logo 196 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,560 are trademarks of Google LLC. 197 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,320 Right, which just reminds us where you download the client, 198 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:31,120 but the actual message routing is 100% self-hosted. 199 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,480 That is a fundamental difference compared 200 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,780 to using something like PushOver or even Telegram, 201 00:08:36,780 --> 00:08:39,320 where the message still have to pass through a corporate server 202 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:40,680 before it hits your device. 203 00:08:40,680 --> 00:08:41,640 Absolutely. 204 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,760 And the ecosystem also supports pushing messages in other ways. 205 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,640 There's also the GoDeFi clay. 206 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,860 The command line interface, who is that for? 207 00:08:48,860 --> 00:08:51,000 It's really designed for system administrators 208 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,880 and automation scripts, people who prefer 209 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,640 interacting with the terminal. 210 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,040 The source confirms the CLIs is not required. 211 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,840 You can just use the REST API directly with cURL. 212 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,600 But the CLI offers a more user-friendly scripted 213 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,200 alternative when you're already in a Linux environment. 214 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,560 It just simplifies that API interaction. 215 00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:09,360 And moving back to the server itself, 216 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,840 we have to talk about longevity and customization. 217 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,120 For any long-term infrastructure project, 218 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,520 features like plugins and clear documentation 219 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:17,640 are just paramount. 220 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:18,520 They really are. 221 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,880 And beyond basic user management, 222 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,800 the server supports plugins. 223 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,880 This allows the community or power users 224 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,800 to extend the functionality. 225 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,360 For instance, you could integrate 226 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,680 specific types of authentication or message 227 00:09:30,680 --> 00:09:33,760 processing before an alert even goes out. 228 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,760 It keeps the core server light, but allows for complexity 229 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:37,560 if you need it. 230 00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:38,660 And the documentation. 231 00:09:38,660 --> 00:09:39,840 It's robust. 232 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,160 It covers installation, configuration, 233 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:46,280 and most importantly, detailed instructions for that REST API. 234 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,480 If you want to integrate this with your own projects, 235 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,480 the API docs are your guide. 236 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,920 And for people building mission-critical automation, 237 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,840 knowing the code is reliable is, well, it's essential. 238 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,640 How does Goatify make sure it's not 239 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,180 going to become one of those abandoned projects?
