Allow to configure not loading naughty.dbus

[blueyed]

I am using the following hack to not load naughty.dbus in my config, but it might still be loaded when something requires naughty later.

local _dbus = dbus; dbus = nil
local naughty = require("naughty")
dbus = _dbus

(to skip loading in

awesome/lib/naughty/init.lua

Lines 8 to 10 in 503c11e

	if dbus then
	naughty.dbus = require("naughty.dbus")
	end

)

Apart from avoiding this hack, it would be good to configure this more explicitly, in case you want to use dunst etc for notifications (over DBUS) instead.

Does this belong/fit into naughty.config?

How about package.loaded["naughty.dbus"] = {}?
Dunno about adding something like this to naughty.config.

none of the above hacks seem to work for me. I also thing this would be a great addition as a config option, so i can use naughty for custom awesome trickery and xfce4-notifyd for notifications, since it has the brightness/volume bars etc.

@topisani
The 1st one should work: you need to wrap the already existing require("naughty").

[topisani]

yeah thats what i tried, it didnt seem like it worked... anyway, i just commented out those three lines from the file mentioned by OP and did a manual build - that worked.

The code affecting this issue has been replaced. It is still not possible to really configure using naughty or not, but assuming you want to disable naughty because it wasn't a very good notification engine, you might want to revisit it now that much effort has been spent into making it good. If support for external notification system is really required, report a bug with a good argument. Note that external bars are already unsupported, so this doesn't set a precedent.

Does anyone have updates on this? What's the current workaround?

[juanibiapina]

Looks like package.loaded["naughty.dbus"] = {} is the hack in 4.3.

i think is good idea to have naughty.disable() instead of forcing users to do monkey-patching

(i myself using naughty though)
