Hi, I am following your repository and thought might be a good idea to offer to send to Telegram too. So the user got both options. We ususally do have the Telegram already for home automation.. Just a proposal. Regards, Andreas

Thanks for your idea. It might be a good idea to send a telegram notification especially for home automation users. Currently I'm not sure if I got enough time to change the script. But feel free to integrate this function.
