Maco

Mako (wayland notif daemon), but for Mac.

MAJOR WORK IN PROGRESS

Maco is currently in very early stages of development. The project aims to create a notification daemon for macOS inspired by Mako (the Wayland notification daemon).

Current Status:

  • Basic GUI functionality implemented using tkinter
  • Generates CSV of macOS notification database
  • Displays notifications in GUI window
  • Reads configuration from ~/.config/maco/config
  • Configurable settings from config file:
    • Appearance:
      • Border color and radius
      • Background color
      • Font family, size, and color
    • Layout:
      • Window dimensions (width, height)
      • Margin and padding
    • Behavior:
      • Notification display duration in ms
      • Anchor (top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right, center-left, center-right, center)
  • Maps application names from bundle identifiers in app_id_list.json
  • Supports blacklist from separate file
  • Implements configuration compatible with Mako

Please note that this project is highly experimental and subject to significant changes.

Future Plans:

  • Improve multi-screen support
  • Add interactive features (e.g., clicking on notifications for actions)
  • Create man pages for documentation
  • Develop a background daemon for continuous operation
  • Implement live config updates via hotkeys
  • Add real-time notification display
  • Create a notification preview feature for styling
  • Develop more extensive rules file for app name mapping
  • Enhance configuration options:
    • Set notification icon/photo
    • Set notification opacity
    • Set notification output display (which monitor)
  • Implement notification grouping and stacking
  • Add support for notification urgency levels
  • Implement notification history and recall
  • Add support for notification sounds
  • Develop a CLI tool for sending test notifications
  • Implement notification filtering and Do Not Disturb mode
  • Add support for rich text and HTML content in notifications
  • Implement notification actions (e.g., reply to messages, snooze reminders)
  • Add support for notification replacement and updates
  • Develop a plugin system for extending functionality?
  • Package python application into binary
