Usage

With rofi

rofi -show notify -modi notify:.../rotify/notify.py                 #Send notification

rofi -show checknotifs -modi checknotifs:.../rotify/checknotifs.py  #Check notifications

notify

usage: notify [-h] [-c CONFIG] [-t TITLE] [-p PRIORITY] [message ...]

Send notifications via Gotify

positional arguments:
  message               Message to send to Gotify

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -c CONFIG, --config CONFIG
                        specify a config file (default: ~/.config/rotify/config.yml)
  -t TITLE, --title TITLE
                        specify title (default: from config file, see --config)
  -p PRIORITY, --priority PRIORITY
                        specify priority (default: from config file, see --config)

Check Gotify notifications

There's also a handy wrapper, rotify.sh, which you can use to call checknotifs and notify, with or without rofi

rotify - send/read Gotify notifications
 
rotify [options]
 
options:
-c        config path [default ~/.config/rotify/config.yml]
-s        send notification via rofi
-r        read notifications via rofi
-d        delete all notifications without rofi
-i        send selected text without rofi
-h        show this help

Windows

If you feel like you have an appetite for fairly disappointing results and a not particularly "nice" experience, but you agree that something is better than nothing, you can get these scripts running in Windows. I'll touch on it briefly.

I'm using Powertoys Run as a launcher, which can run shell scripts.

  • Enable the scripts toggle in Powertoys Run
  • Clone scripts, add them to PATH and reboot (PToys Run uses the Windows indexer and rebooting is the easiest way to make sure the indexes are up to date)
  • Update the script shebangs to #!python to get them working on Windows, point them to the new config path
  • Remove all the nice xdg-open and xclip stuff from checknotifs.py, since that won't work on Windows and make sure it waits for user input before exiting, the script runs outside the launcher in a termimnal window
  • Open PToys Run with the hotkey and type in >notify.py message to send a notification, >checknotifs.py to list them
