# Dependencies:
|
|
+ Awesome Window Manager (git master branch)
|
|
+ canberra-gtk-play (optional)
|
|
|
|
# Instructions:
|
|
+ Clone the repo.
|
|
+ Just copy the `notif-center` folder to `$HOME/.config/awesome/`.
|
|
+ Then `require` it in your `wibox panel`.
|
|
+ For example, let's put it in the top panel of a default `rc.lua`:
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
s.mywibox = awful.wibar({ position = "top", screen = s })
|
|
|
|
-- Add widgets to the wibox
|
|
s.mywibox.widget = {
|
|
layout = wibox.layout.align.horizontal,
|
|
{ -- Left widgets
|
|
layout = wibox.layout.fixed.horizontal,
|
|
mylauncher,
|
|
s.mytaglist,
|
|
s.mypromptbox,
|
|
},
|
|
s.mytasklist, -- Middle widget
|
|
{ -- Right widgets
|
|
layout = wibox.layout.fixed.horizontal,
|
|
mykeyboardlayout,
|
|
wibox.widget.systray(),
|
|
mytextclock,
|
|
s.mylayoutbox,
|
|
-- Let's put the notification center button after the layoutbox
|
|
require('notif-center')
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
+ After that, it is recommended to add a `request::display` signal listener in your `rc.lua`:
|
|
+ Add the snippet below:
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
-- request::display signal listener
|
|
naughty.connect_signal('request::display', function(n)
|
|
naughty.layout.box {notification = n}
|
|
end)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
+ For `Do not disturb` button to work, add the snippet below to the `request::display` signal listener mentioned above:
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
-- We will use `destroy_all_notifications()` instead of `suspend()` because suspending naughty will also suspend the notification-center. It's a hackish way to hide the pop-ups, but hey, it's working.
|
|
|
|
-- Don't display notification pop-ups when the panel is visible and dont disturb mode is enabled.
|
|
if _G.panel_visible or _G.dont_disturb then
|
|
naughty.destroy_all_notifications()
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Extras
|
|
You can also add a system sound effects when there is a new notification by installing `canberra-gtk-play`. Again, after that, add the snippet below inside inside the `request::display` signal.
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
-- Add sound effects if it's not do not disturb mode
|
|
if not _G.dont_disturb then
|
|
-- Add Sound fx to notif
|
|
-- Depends: canberra-gtk-play
|
|
awful.spawn('canberra-gtk-play -i message', false)
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Note:
|
|
+ If you have a problem, try to solve it or just open an issue.
|
|
+ Putting the widget folder to a different path other than `$HOME/.config/awesome` may cause some issues. It is because there is some hard-coded paths in some of the files. Tinkering it by yourself is recommended. ;)
|
|
+ Change the colors of notification panel widget in `$HOME/.config/awesome/notif-center/init.lua`
