README

This package aims to provide an easy and fluent interface to construct and execute commands for various desktop notification programs.

Requirements

PHP 5.4+ and one of the following notification programs:

OS X

Growl & GrowlNotify

• Growl
• GrowlNotify

terminal-notifier

$ gem install terminal-notifier
$ brew install terminal-notifier

Linux

notify-send

$ apt-get install libnotify-bin
$ yum install libnotify

Windows

Growl & GrowlNotify

• Growl
• GrowlNotify

Installation

Composer

$ composer require bcrowe/growl

Usage

Create a new instance of the Growl class. You can optionally supply a Builder class and its path if you don't wish for the package to choose a notification program based on your system:

<?php
use BryanCrowe\Growl\Growl;

$Growl = new Growl;

// Or...

use BryanCrowe\Growl\Growl;
use BryanCrowe\Growl\Builder\GrowlNotifyBuilder;

$Growl = new Growl(new GrowlNotifyBuilder('/usr/local/bin/growlnotify'));
?>

Now, you can set key/value options for a Builder to use with the setOption() or setOptions() methods. After setting options, the last thing to do is build the command with buildCommand() or run it with execute():

<?php
(new Growl)
    ->setOption('title', 'Hello World')
    ->setOption('message', 'How are you doing?')
    ->setOption('sticky', true)
    ->execute();

// Or...

$Growl = new Growl;
$Growl->setOptions([
        'title' => 'Hello World',
        'message' => 'How are you doing?',
        'sticky' => true
    ])
    ->buildCommand();

exec($Growl);
?>

By default, this package will escape all command arguments that are supplied as options. If you want to change this, there are two options. Either completely disable escaping, or provide a safe-list of option keys that will be bypassed while escaping is enabled.

<?php
// Completely disable escaping...
(new Growl)
    ->setOptions([
        'title' => 'Hello World',
        'message' => 'How are you doing?',
        'url' => 'http://www.google.com'
    ])
    ->setEscape(false)
    ->execute();

// Set a safe-list of option keys. Can be an array of option keys, or a string.
(new Growl)
    ->setOptions([
        'title' => 'Hello World',
        'message' => $mySafeMessage,
        'url' => $mySafeURL
    ])
    ->setSafe(['message', 'url'])
    ->execute();
?>
