The name is self explanatory, it adds more actions to a notification.
One of the use case is adding a snooze/reming_me action. Another one
is "mute similar notifications".
The reason is that if actions are provided by rules, only one instance
exist. It was a mistake to couple actions with their notifications. It
could not work reliably and has to be removed.
The commit also change the notification action storage to be a copy
instead of the original table. This allows to append actions (not part
of this commit) without risking adding them to the wrong notification.
**WARNING** This break an unreleased API by removing the `notification`
property of an action.
* app_name: To be used in filters when no clients are found.
* max_width: Allow to set it from the rules, it might be different
when a `widget_template` is used.
* widget_template: Now it can be set from the rules without further
boilerplate code.
The old preset code had a primitive implementation of the rule API
used in `naughty.dbus`. Now that `gears.matcher` is extracted from
`awful.rules`, it is possible to share the code.
The first step is to only enable the old API when the new
`request::preset` isn't connected. This is the same way the legacy
popup is only enabled when nothing is connected to `request::display`.
This removes the imperative "mutex" logic from rc.lua, where it doesn't
belong. It also makes it closer to the "vision" of making `rc.lua` fully
modular.
* action icons
* persistence
* residence
* categories
* animated icons
* more ways to get icons
In addition, the commit also tries its best to attach notifications to
objects using various dubious semi compliant hints or the DBus PID. It
works often enough to be useful.
This is configurable globally or per-notification. When it is
replaced over dbus, it has a new timeout and *that* should be the
new timeout (starting when the notification is replaced).
Closes#2821
Also document the `test` property as deprecated. It exists because the
older API (`naughty.notify`) had it. It exists on purpose in the
rewrite, it cannot just be removed even if it was never in a release.
This will be shared by the notifications stored in a wibox/wibar and the
ones using a popup. It extends the constraint and margins container
to take care of some boilerplate code. While other widgets have their
own public API, those 2 are private since they are not different enough
to warrent a new public module.
There is some boilerplate code that make using the widget_template
harder when using the raw `wibox.container.background`. This widget
takes care of it.
It is a normal textbox with some extra boilerplate code. Having this
in a separate widget allows the notification to be defined from rc.lua
without a ton of beautiful options and connect_signal.
This way their name doesn't get mangle by the broken magic. It will also
eventually allow to `error()` in the template when the implicit
`@function` is used.
This commit also fixes a large number of issues found while
proof-reading everything.
ldoc has a magical `@classmod` module type which tries to detect
what is a method and what is a static function. It fails about as
often as it works. This commit makes everything explicit to remove
such issues.
