At home and at work we are running Zabbix for monitoring, for alerting I use Pushover. There are some scripts that have Zabbix and Pushover integration on share.zabbix.com, but none of them have priority support and have inline image for Pushover.
On my GitHub you can find a alertscript for Zabbix and Pushover. Pushover has also a dark theme, but the Zabbix graphs are still light. So there is an option in the script to invert the graphs. So it wont hurt your eyes so much at night when you have oncall.
cli usage
notify_pushover.sh 'Pushover_Userkey|Pushover_apptoken' 'subject' 'message'
Install
Download or Clone the notify-pushover.sh from my GitHub and copy it to the AlertScriptsPath from /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf
Adjust the following configs in the script
# Zabbix address
ZBX_URL="https://zabbixserver"
# Zabbix credentials to login
USERNAME="zabbixuser"
PASSWORD="password"
Optional adjust the following
# Image time and size
PERIOD=24h
WIDTH=800
# invert image, better for black theme pushover and better for your eyes at night.
INV=true
Configure Actions
Under configuration -> actions in Zabbix create or change the notification messages to the following. The subject wil be used for the Pushover Priority.

Configure media type
Under Administration -> Media in Zabbix add a new media. Specify the name of the script in script name and check that the parameters are correct.

You will need then to add the media to your users. For this just edit an user and add a media selecting the one you just created before. Specify the UserKey and AppToken in the Send to field, separated by a | .
