grunt-growl

Getting Started

Install this grunt plugin next to your project's grunt.js gruntfile with: npm install grunt-growl

Then add this line to your project's grunt.js gruntfile:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-growl');

And install a dependency terminal-notifier with RubyGems:

sudo gem install terminal-notifier

Documentation

This grunt multitask allows you to configure desktop notifications inside your gruntfile and use them inside your tasks. This tasks makes use of node-growl in order to make desktop notifications cross platform-ish.

Example

grunt.initConfig({
    growl : {
    	myMessage : {
    		message : "Some message",
    		title : "Notification Title",
    		image : __dirname + "/foo.png"
    	}
	}	
});

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-growl');

grunt.registerTask('default', 'growl:myMessage');

If you run 'grunt' you would see something like this:
