$ changedetection.io -d /path/to/empty/data/dir -p 5000Then visit http://127.0.0.1:5000 , You should now be able to access the UI.
Now with per-site configurable support for using a fast built in HTTP fetcher or use a Chrome based fetcher for monitoring of JavaScript websites!
docker pull dgtlmoon/changedetection.io
docker kill $(docker ps -a|grep changedetection.io|awk '{print $1}')
docker rm $(docker ps -a|grep changedetection.io|awk '{print $1}')
docker run -d --restart always -p "127.0.0.1:5000:5000" -v datastore-volume:/datastore --name changedetection.io dgtlmoon/changedetection.io

Please ⭐ star ⭐ this project and help it grow! https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/
ChangeDetection.io supports a massive amount of notifications (including email, office365, custom APIs, etc) when a web-page has a change detected thanks to the apprise library. Simply set one or more notification URL's in the [edit] tab of that watch.
Just some examples
discord://webhook_id/webhook_token
flock://app_token/g:channel_id
gitter://token/room
gchat://workspace/key/token
msteams://TokenA/TokenB/TokenC/
o365://TenantID:AccountEmail/ClientID/ClientSecret/TargetEmail
rocket://user:password@hostname/#Channel
mailto://user:pass@example.com?to=receivingAddress@example.com
json://someserver.com/custom-api
syslog://
And everything else in this list!
Now you can also customise your notification content!
Detect changes and monitor data in JSON API's by using the built-in JSONPath selectors as a filter / selector.
This will re-parse the JSON and apply formatting to the text, making it super easy to monitor and detect changes in JSON API results
When you enable a json: filter, you can even automatically extract and parse embedded JSON inside a HTML page! Amazingly handy for sites that build content based on JSON, such as many e-commerce websites.
<html>
...
<script type="application/ld+json">
{"@context":"http://schema.org","@type":"Product","name":"Nan Optipro Stage 1 Baby Formula 800g","price": 23.50 }
</script>
json:$.price would give 23.50, or you can extract the whole structure
A proxy for ChangeDetection.io can be configured by setting environment the
HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY variables, examples are also in the docker-compose.yml
NO_PROXY exclude list can be specified by following "localhost,192.168.0.0/24"
as docker run with -e
docker run -d --restart always -e HTTPS_PROXY="socks5h://10.10.1.10:1080" -p "127.0.0.1:5000:5000" -v datastore-volume:/datastore --name changedetection.io dgtlmoon/changedetection.io
With docker-compose, see the Proxy support example in docker-compose.yml.
For more information see https://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/user/advanced/#proxies
This proxy support also extends to the notifications caronc/apprise#387 (comment)
RaspberriPi and linux/arm/v6 linux/arm/v7 arm64 devices are supported!
