A notification daemon in the style of dunst but with an emphasis on beauty. Written in GTK, uses your GNOME colors if they're set, but can be used and themed via CSS.
If you want something battle-tested with active development and features, use dunst. I used it before I wrote this and it works perfectly well. If you want to support people writing software in Rust, if you want true background transparency (dunst only supports setting the entire window's opacity), use ninomiya.
Build it using cargo build. Run the daemon using ninomiya; if you want
logging, run like RUST_LOG=debug. Valid log levels are error, warn,
info, debug, and trace (which will spam stdout).
You can also use it to send notifications by invoking it like
ninomiya notify --app-name "some app" --body "body" --summary "the summary"
If you run the daemon with --testing, it will listen on a separate DBus name;
you can then invoke ninomiya --testing notify to send to that. This is useful
for checking it out without messing with your actual notification setup, or for
debugging it when you're hacking on it.
It's named after an anime character I like. Fans of Gatchaman Crowds might point out that there's a more appropriate name for a daemon that shows you NOTEs, but I like Rui.
