<?php

if (isset($argv) && count($argv) > 1) {
  array_shift($argv);
  $notificationText = implode(' ', $argv);

} else {
  $notificationText = 'Hey Oli';
}

$accessCode = "API-KEY-REMOVED";

$data = [
  'notification' => $notificationText,
  'accessCode'   => $accessCode
];

$dataString = json_encode($data);

$curl = curl_init($path);
