Push Notifications to Rocket.Chat in Gitlab CI - gitlab

Question

I am trying to setup notifications to my Rocket.Chat server through my .gitlab-ci.yml file. I have my test and deploy stages working, but my notify stage is erroring out. I followed the instructions from here, but I adjusted the notify scripts to work with Rocket.Chat instead of Pushbullet.
Here is my .gitlab-ci.yml:
stages:
- test
- deploy
- notify
test:
stage: test
image: homeassistant/amd64-homeassistant
script:
- hass --script check_config -c .
deploy:
stage: deploy
only:
- master
before_script:
- 'which ssh-agent || ( apk update && apk add openssh-client )'
- eval $(ssh-agent -s)
- echo "$SSH_PRIVATE_KEY" | tr -d '\r' | ssh-add - > /dev/null
- mkdir -p ~/.ssh
- chmod 700 ~/.ssh
- echo "$SSH_KNOWN_HOSTS" > ~/.ssh/known_hosts
- chmod 644 ~/.ssh/known_hosts
script:
- ssh $DEPLOY_USER#$DEPLOY_HOST "cd '$DEPLOY_PATH'; git pull; sudo systemctl restart home-assistant#homeassistant"
notify_success:
stage: notify
allow_failure: true
only:
- master
script:
- curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data '{"text":"New Hass config deployed successfully!"}' https://chat.bryantgeeks.com/hooks/$ROCKET_CHAT_TOKEN
notify_fail:
stage: notify
allow_failure: true
only:
- master
when: on_failure
script:
- curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data '{"text":"New Hass config failed. Please check for errors!"}' https://chat.bryantgeeks.com/hooks/$ROCKET_CHAT_TOKEN
I get this error in the CI Lint:
Status: syntax is incorrect
Error: jobs:notify_success:script config should be a string or an array of strings
If I change the notify script lines to have single quotes around it ('), I get the following error in CI Lint:
Status: syntax is incorrect
Error: (): did not find expected key while parsing a block mapping at line 33 column 7
If I try double quotes around the script line ("), I get the following error:
Status: syntax is incorrect
Error: (): did not find expected '-' indicator while parsing a block collection at line 33 column 5
I'm not sure what else to try or where to look at this point for how to correct this. Any help is appreciated.

YAML really doesn't like :'s in strings. The culprit is the : in 'Content-Type: application/json'
Sometimes using the multiline string format helps, like this:
notify_success:
stage: notify
allow_failure: true
only:
- master
script: |
curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data '{"text":"New Hass config deployed successfully!"}' https://chat.bryantgeeks.com/hooks/$ROCKET_CHAT_TOKEN
