Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/maziggy/bambuddy/issues/1016

Problem or Use Case

The standard notifications offer too little customization for my needs.

For example, after the printer finishes printing and I receive a notification, I'd like to see the printer's maintenance status – either how many hours until it's finished or how many hours have passed. It would also be great to be able to choose whether a final photo is sent as a link or as an image file. This would be customizable for people who use Bambuddy offline but still want to see when something is finished. Overall, there should be more customization options to create more personalized notifications.

Now, let's talk about automatic tasks.

It would be great if you could automatically trigger printer-related tasks before, during, and after printing. For example, triggering an HA script after printing, turning off the lights after printing, taking a photo during printing, or activating the chamber fan at a later time to clean the air inside the printer. I think you could add several other things in the future with further development.

Proposed Solution

Customizable notifications

It would be great if an editor could be added that allowed users to first select what should happen when these notifications are sent, and then choose from all available variables that Bambuddy provides and add them, just like it does now. Additional features would include adjustable font size, color, and thickness – an editor similar to the one on GitHub.

Automatic tasks

It would be helpful to have a separate page where automatic jobs can be created.

These jobs should then be assigned to a printer and have customizable parameters.

What should be done: execute an HA script, a printer setting, or an internal execution within Bambuddy?
After how many minutes should it be executed?
How long should it run?
Should a notification be sent afterward?
When should it be executed: at the start of printing, during printing, after a power outage, or after a printer error? I think there are several other possibilities.

Perhaps this could also be extended to Bambuddy, for example, sending a notification when there's a Bambuddy update, or triggering automatic AMS drying at specific intervals. I think there might be more uses for this in the future.

I would love to see this.
Think I am going to use it for scheduling the machine to turn on and start drying at night when power is cheap.

You already can do that with the queue scheduler?!
