Emacs support
- Emacs server needs to be running.
You can start it with M-x server-start or adding (server-start) to your emacs config.
The default script doesn't do much and probably is useless. E.g. it doesn't reset the colors, it doesn't show messages, etc.
Instead, create a file e.g. ~/.emacs.notiffany.erb with the following contents:
(progn
(unless (boundp 'notiffany-original-background) (setq notiffany-original-background (face-background 'mode-line)))
(unless (boundp 'notiffany-original-foreground) (setq notiffany-original-foreground (face-foreground 'mode-line)))
(set-face-attribute 'mode-line nil :background "<%= bgcolor %>" :foreground "<%= color %>")
(message "<%= message %>")
(run-at-time "5 sec" nil (lambda ()
(set-face-attribute 'mode-line nil
:background notiffany-original-background
:foreground notiffany-original-foreground)))
)
The above should add a message, highlight the modeline bar to green (with white text) and reset the colors after 5 seconds.
Notice that ERB is used to insert the values from Notiffany.
The following variables are currently available: color, bgcolor and message.
Set the elisp_file option to point to your file above.
E.g. if you're using Guard, you may want a ~/.guard.rb file with the following:
notification(:emacs, {
elisp_file: '~/.emacs.notiffany.erb',
success: "ForestGreen", # background of modeline bar when successful
failed: "Firebrick", # background of modeline bar when failed
default: "Black", # default color (which is a bit silly since it's for both bg and font)
fontcolor: "White", # color of the font
})If you're using Guard, enable debugging with bundle exec guard -d and it should show you whether Emacs notifier is available and what was sent to it.
Open an issue otherwise.
