DSBMobile is a very common service in Germany for schools to manage substitution plans. There are several apps for the common mobile phone platforms. After some problems with the DSBmobile app for Android I started looking for an API for DSBMobile to make the query more comfortable. Here I came across the Python library DSBApi and got inspired by it and built a Docker container from it, which filters out only the necessary entries for the coming day, prepares them and distributes them with the Pushover service.
- You need a DSBMobile login from the school (user and password)
- You need a Pushover account and you need to create a new application for that (UserKey, ApiKey)
The docker container grab the configuration via environment variables.
| Environment variable name | Description | Required | Default value |
|---|---|---|---|
DSB_USERNAME |
The login username for DSBMobile | MANDATORY | |
DSB_PASSWORD |
The login password for DSBMobile | MANDATORY | |
PUSHOVER_USER_KEY |
The user key of your pushover account | MANDATORY | |
PUSHOVER_API_KEY |
The application key of your pushover application | MANDATORY | |
FILTER_SCHOOLCLASS |
The name of the school class in DSBMobile (regexp) | OPTIONAL | |
LOGLEVEL |
The loglevel of the application inside the container, can be one of: debug, info, warning, error |
OPTIONAL | info |
DSB_TABLE_FIELDS |
The table format of the DSBMobile tables, a comma separated list of attribute names | OPTIONAL | type,class,lesson,subject,room,new_subject,new_teacher,teacher |
docker run --rm \

-e PUSHOVER_API_KEY='PushoverApiKey' \
-e FILTER_SCHOOLCLASS='6a?b?cd?' \
-e DSB_TABLE_FIELDS='class,lesson,new_subject,room,subject,new_teacher,type,text' \

I would appreciate a small donation to support the further development of my open source projects.
