terminal-notifier style doesn't work

[shackra]

At work, I'm using Emacs for Mac OS X. I installed terminal-notifier using brew, and I cannot get my library to emit notifications using the terminal-notifier style provided by alert, everything I get on Message buffer is this:

hola mundo
[nil 22209 57989 289983 nil alert-remove-when-active (alert-message-remove (:message "hola mundo" :title "*scratch*" :icon nil :severity normal :category nil :buffer #<buffer *scratch*> ...)) nil 0]

Any idea what's going on? thanks!

@shackra This seems like the issue described in #30 .
My solution is to call (alert-add-rule) before (alert "msg" :style 'notifier).
This is a little strange, but it do send alert with terminal-notifier.

I don't have a Mac anymore, but thanks for the insight!

• In addition to adding (alert-add-rule) in my .emacs (or Preferences.el) file I had to change in function alert-notifier-notify in alert.el the string

"-sender" "org.gnu.Emacs" to "-sender" "org.gnu.Aquamacs"

This is because I use Aquamacs in which case "org.gnu.Emacs" will cause an error.

By the way, if you use the emacs version from https://emacsformacosx.com/, then you might not be able to run the elisp function "executable-find" which is called in alert.el. You can solve this by downloading the emacs package "exec-path-from-shell" (from https://github.com/purcell/exec-path-from-shell).

Furthermore add the following to your .emacs file, because of #30
(setq alert-default-style (quote notifier))
(setq alert-user-configuration (quote ((nil notifier nil))))
