- PyGObject This script is an org.freedesktop.Notifications implementation that serve as simple notification system for Waybar using DBus. It allows an user to listen to org.freedesktop.Notifications Session Bus and create a /tmp/notifications file with the the latest notification in JSON format to use with Waybar. It can own the System Bus and act as a Session to System Bus Proxy to let other users send Notifications over the System Bus (useful in case of an user-sandboxed application).
To run as Session DBus
./waybar-notifications -u -d
To run as System DBus:
./waybar-notifications -s -d
NOTE: A proxy between the user's Session DBus and System DBus is initialized.
To run as proxy:
./waybar-notifications -p -d
