Brrr Nodes

The Brrr Nodes bring Brrr into KNIME – a dead-simple push notification service for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. No accounts, no dashboards, no nonsense. Just a webhook that puts a notification on your device.

If you've ever kicked off a long-running KNIME workflow and then spent the next hour checking whether it's done yet, this is for you.

What is Brrr?

Brrr is a lightweight push notification service. You install the Brrr app on your Apple device, grab your personal webhook URL from inside the app, and that's it – you're ready to receive notifications. No sign-up, no email confirmation, nothing.

Notifications are not stored on Brrr's backend. Message history stays on your device only, which makes it a comfortable choice even for workflows that deal with sensitive data.

Why use it from KNIME?

KNIME workflows can take a while. They can also fail. With Brrr Nodes you can drop a notification at the end of any workflow or in an error branch and get an instant ping on your phone or Mac the moment something happens. It beats staring at the progress bar.

Some things people use it for:

• "Your model is done training" – fire a notification at the end of a long pipeline
• "Something broke" – put a node in the error branch of a try/catch to alert on failures
• "Your data export is ready" – notify yourself (or a colleague) when a scheduled job completes
• "Is it still alive?" – build a workflow that checks something periodically and pushes an alert if it goes wrong

Getting Started

1. Install the Brrr Nodes into your KNIME Analytics Platform
2. Install the Brrr app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac
3. Copy your webhook secret from the app
4. Drop a Send Notification node into your workflow and paste the secret
5. Run the workflow – your device goes brrr
