JoliNotif

PHP >= 5.4

JoliNotif is a PHP library to send notifications to your desktop directly from your script. It takes care of using the right command available, without having to worry if you're running on Linux, Windows or MacOS.

For example, if you have a long running PHP task - like executing a large test suite, launching a deployment script - you can use JoliNotif to inform your users that a task just finished.

Installation

Use Composer to install JoliNotif in your project:

composer require "jolicode/jolinotif"

Usage

Use the NotifierFactory to create a Notifier according to which notifiers are available on your system, then use it to send your notification:

use Joli\JoliNotif\Notification;
use Joli\JoliNotif\NotifierFactory;

// Create a Notifier (or null if no notifier supported)
$notifier = NotifierFactory::create();

if ($notifier) {
    // Create your notification
    $notification =
        (new Notification())
        ->setTitle('Notification title')
        ->setBody('This is the body of your notification')
        ->setIcon(__DIR__.'/path/to/your/icon.png')
    ;

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