Hyprnotify

A DBus Implementation for 'hyprctl notify'

Hyprnotify is a Freedesktop.org compliant notification daemon implementing hyprctl notify as its backend.

(back to top)

To get hyprnotify you can either download the binary build by github actions. Or build it locally.

hyprnotify is available on the AUR. You can install it with a AUR helper like yay.

yay -S hyprnotify

You can download the release binaries directly from the releases page.

• go compiler
• alsa-lib or libasound for sound support
• libnotify to send notifications with notify-send (optional)

1. Clone the repo and cd into it

   git clone https://github.com/codelif/hyprnotify.git
   cd hyprnotify

2. Build

   go build ./cmd/hyprnotify

3. Run the binary

   ./hyprnotify

(back to top)

Execute the daemon:

hyprnotify

Send a notification:

notify-send "Hello, World!"

Add a font-size hint:

notify-send "This is very big!" -h int:x-hyprnotify-font-size:40

Add an urgency hint and last for 20 seconds:

notify-send "This is serious stuff!" -u critical -t 20000 

ID	Icon	Preview
0	WARNING
1	INFO
2	HINT
3	ERROR
4	CONFUSED
5	OK

A notification sound is played along with a notification.

To disable this behaviour pass --silent flag when executing.

hyprnotify --silent

--no-sound and -s also works the same way.

When using replace-id with notify-send

notify-send --replace-id=10 "Hello"

All the notifications with IDs of more than replace-id will also be deleted. (11, 12, 13...)
This is due to the inherent design of hyprctl dismissnotify. So, it is not fixable.

Due to this, it is advisable to use it to replace only the latest notification.
