About JoliNotif

JoliNotif is a cross-platform PHP library to display desktop notifications. It works on Linux, Windows or macOS.

Requires PHP >= 8.1 (support for PHP 5 was available in version 1.x, for PHP 7.0 and 7.1 in version < 2.1.0, for PHP 7.2 and 7.3 in version < 2.4.0, for PHP < 8.0 in version 2.6.0).

Note

This library can not be used in a web context (FPM or equivalent). Use it in your CLI scripts or in a CRON

Installation

Use Composer to install JoliNotif in your project:

composer require "jolicode/jolinotif"

Usage

include __DIR__.'/vendor/autoload.php';

use Joli\JoliNotif\Notification;
use Joli\JoliNotif\DefaultNotifier;

$notifier = new DefaultNotifier();

// Create your notification
$notification =
    (new Notification())
    ->setTitle('Notification title')
    ->setBody('This is the body of your notification')
    ->setIcon(__DIR__.'/path/to/your/icon.png')
    ->addOption('subtitle', 'This is a subtitle') // Only works on macOS (AppleScriptDriver)
    ->addOption('sound', 'Frog') // Only works on macOS (AppleScriptDriver & TerminalNotifierDriver)
;

// Send it
$notifier->send($notification);

A shell executable is also provided to use JoliNotif from CLI:

jolinotif --title "Hello" --body "World"
