Malicious npm Packages Inject SSH Backdoors via Typosquatted Libraries
Socket’s threat research team has detected six malicious npm packages typosquatting popular libraries to insert SSH backdoors.
This is a pure-python replacement for notify-python, using python-dbus to communicate with the notifications server directly. It's compatible with Python 2 and 3, and its callbacks can work with Gtk 3 or Qt 4 applications.
To use it, first call notify2.init('app name')
, then create and show notifications::
n = notify2.Notification("Summary",
"Some body text",
"notification-message-im" # Icon name
)
n.show()
API docs are available on ReadTheDocs <https://notify2.readthedocs.org/en/latest/>
_,
or you can refer to docstrings.
Based on the notifications spec at: http://developer.gnome.org/notification-spec/
There are a few differences from pynotify you should be aware of:
mainloop
parameter
to init
.attach_to_widget
and attach_to_status_icon
are not
implemented. You can calculate the location you want the notification to
appear and call Notification
.set_property
and get_property
are not implemented. The summary, body
and icon are accessible as attributes of a Notification
instance.Several pynotify functions, especially getters and setters, are only supported for compatibility. You are encouraged to use more direct, Pythonic alternatives.
