Based on the "Miscellaneous" category.
Alternatively, view notifier alternatives based on common mentions on social networks and blogs.

Do you think we are missing an alternative of notifier or a related project?

Add another 'Miscellaneous' Package

README

Notifier

OSX notifications in a pluggable architecture for other kinds of notifications.

Borrows heavily from the fabulous navinpeiris/ex_unit_notifier! Thanks, Navin. You're awesome.

demo

Requirements

For icon support, you must install terminal-notifier

> brew install terminal-notifier

Usage

Add it to your dependencies

# mix.exs
def deps do
  [{:notifier, "~> 0.0.1"}]
end
> mix deps.get
Notifier.notify("This is my message.")

Notifier.notify("MY TITLE", "This is my message.")

# All the options, local image
Notifier.notify(%{
  title: "MY TITLE", 
  message: "This is my message.",
  sound: "Basso",
  icon: "/Users/yourname/Pictures/cute_picture.png"
})

# All the options, remote image
Notifier.notify(%{
  title: "MY TITLE", 
  message: "This is my message.",
  sound: "Basso",
  icon: "http://www.gnu.org/graphics/heckert_gnu.small.png"
})

# Some options
Notifier.notify(%{
  sound: "Basso", 
  title: "MY TITLE", 
  message: "This is my message."
})

# Fewer options
Notifier.notify(%{title: "MY TITLE", message: "This is my message."})
Notifier.notify(%{title: "MY TITLE"})
Notifier.notify(%{message: "This is my message."})

Selecting a Plugin

You may optionally specify which plugin Notifier uses.

config.exs

config :notifier, :plugin, Notifier.TerminalNotifierPlugin
# config :notifier, :plugin, Notifier.ApplescriptPlugin
# config :notifier, :plugin, Notifier.PutsPlugin

Adding your own Plugin

Let's say you want to use Growl or some other style of notification. No problem! Implement the Notifier.Plugin behavior like so:

defmodule Notifier.MyPlugin do
  @behaviour Notifier.Plugin

  def notify(%{title: title, message: message, sound: sound, icon: icon}) do
    # Whatever magic you do to notify the person at the screen.
  end

  def available? do
    # Return true if this plugin will work in this environment, false otherwise.
  end
end

Then set your config to use your notifier.

config.exs

config :notifier, :plugin, MyNamespace.MyPlugin

If you do this, I'd love a pull request so I can add it to the package.
