Filament runout notice?

[montyfert]

What is the problem?

is it posible to be notified when filament has runout , i have a filament sensor conected to the printer board which works great except for the fact it just beeps twice and pauses when the filament runs out ,
is there a way to have octoptint notify me via mqtt so i can get my google mini to say filament has run out or something like that ,
any ideas would be great
thank you
