SwayNotificationCenter

A simple notification daemon with a gui built for Sway (potentially any wm with wlroots).

Features

• A panel to view previous notifications
• Show album art for notifications like Spotify
• Do not disturb
• Click notification to execute default action
• Show alternative notification actions
• Customization through a CSS file
• The same features as any other basic notification daemon

Planned Features

• Slick animations 😎
• Other build scripts than a PKGBUILD (debian and/or RHEL systems)

Install

Arch: The package is available on the AUR

Other:

meson build
ninja -C build
meson install -C build

Run

To start the daemon (remember to kill any other notification daemon before running)

./build/src/swaync

To toggle the panel

./build/src/swaync-client -t

Configuring

To customize the appearance of the widgets, you'll need to create a style.css file in ~/.config/swaync/style.css.
At the time of writing, creating the file will override the default theme which is located for most systems at /etc/xdg/swaync/style.css

Screenshots

I wonder how this would look with some blur 🤔
