Introducing the Socket Python SDK
The initial version of the Socket Python SDK is now on PyPI, enabling developers to more easily interact with the Socket REST API in Python projects.
This is a Python library for working with the Growl Notification Transport Protocol <http://www.growlforwindows.com/gfw/help/gntp.aspx>
_
It should work as a dropin replacement for the older Python bindings
You can install with pip
::
$ pip install gntp
then test the module
::
$ python -m gntp.notifier
::
# GNTP uses the standard Python logging
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
import gntp.notifier
# Simple "fire and forget" notification
gntp.notifier.mini("Here's a quick message")
# More complete example
growl = gntp.notifier.GrowlNotifier(
applicationName = "My Application Name",
notifications = ["New Updates","New Messages"],
defaultNotifications = ["New Messages"],
# hostname = "computer.example.com", # Defaults to localhost
# password = "abc123" # Defaults to a blank password
)
growl.register()
# Send one message
growl.notify(
noteType = "New Messages",
title = "You have a new message",
description = "A longer message description",
icon = "http://example.com/icon.png",
sticky = False,
priority = 1,
)
# Try to send a different type of message
# This one may fail since it is not in our list
# of defaultNotifications
growl.notify(
noteType = "New Updates",
title = "There is a new update to download",
description = "A longer message description",
icon = "http://example.com/icon.png",
sticky = False,
priority = -1,
)
URL based images do not work in the OSX version of
growl <http://code.google.com/p/growl/issues/detail?id=423>
_ 1.4
You can send the image along with the notification to get around this.
::
image = open('/path/to/image.png', 'rb').read()
growl.notify(
noteType = "New Messages",
title = "You have a new message",
description = "This time we embed the image",
icon = image,
)
.. note:: With Growl 2 and above user can choose to pass notification to system
wide notifications center. In this case icon
argument would be ignored
by the notification center (there would always be Growl icon instead).
