Wired is light and fully customizable notification daemon that provides you with powerful and extensible layout tools.
- Layout - position every element how you want it, see wiki for more info.
- Programmable and Interactable Layout Elements - code your own or use layout elements from wired and contributors (accepting pull requests!).
- Text blocks which scroll.
- Backgrounds which reflect state (paused, active, extended, etc).
- Layout elements can fire events on click (open url, etc).
- More soon.
- First Class Mouse Actions - close, pause, and open urls within a notification with a click.
- Open an issue if you have ideas of more actions.
- Every notification is a different window - pretty sick of stuff only being able to show one notification at a time honestly.

See the Config wiki page for configuration settings.
See the wiki for everything else you need to know about using Wired.
Making your own layout elements is designed to be as easy as possible. Anybody who knows basic Rust should be able to make a layout element. See the wiki for a detailed tutorial on making and adding a layout element to Wired.

$ git clone https://github.com/Toqozz/wired-notify.git
$ cd wired-notify
$ cargo build --release
$ ./target/release/wiredWired is available on the AUR!
$ yay -S wiredThere's also a -git version which tracks master. Beware! No guarantees are made about stability on the master branch. However, I do appreciate any help finding bugs before they make it to a release:
$ yay -S wired-gitFlake support was added to Nix in version 2.4. As of Nix 2.8, you must enable the nix-command and flakes experimental features.
Wired can be run directly from the repository, using:
nix run 'github:Toqozz/wired-notify'To install Wired to your user profile:
# note: the systemd service will not be available if installed with this method
nix profile install 'github:Toqozz/wired-notify'To use it in another flake:
{
inputs = {
wired.url = "github:Toqozz/wired-notify";
};
}{
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-unstable";
wired.url = "github:Toqozz/wired-notify";
};
outputs = { self, nixpkgs, wired }: let
std = nixpkgs.lib;
system = "x86_64-linux";
in {
nixosConfigurations.alice = std.nixosSystem {
inherit system;
modules = [
./configuration.nix
{
environment.systemPackages = [ wired.packages.${system}.wired ];
}
];
};
};
}This flake also provides a module for home-manager if you installed it standalone. To use it in your configuration:
{
# ...
outputs = { self, nixpkgs, home-manager, wired, ... }: {
homeConfigurations.alice = let
system = "x86_64-linux";
in home-manager.lib.homeManagerConfiguration {
pkgs = import nixpkgs {
inherit system;
overlays = [ wired.overlays.default ];
};
modules = [
wired.homeManagerModules.default
({ ... }: {
services.wired = {
enable = true;
config = ./wired.ron;
};
})
];
};
};
}If you're using home-manager as a NixOS-Module, then you simply need to add the provided overlay and home-manager-module to nixpkgs.overlays and home-manager.sharedModules:
nixpkgs.overlays = [
inputs.wired-notify.overlays.default
];
home-manager.sharedModules = [
inputs.wired-notify.homeManagerModules.default
];then you'll have services.wired in your home-manager config.
Wired is available from the official repositories,
$ pkgin install wired-notifyor, if you prefer to build from source
$ cd /usr/pkgsrc/x11/wired-notify
$ make installMake sure you have DNF installed, and run the script with sudo permissions, otherwise the necessary dependencies cannot be installed.
$ cd wired-notify
$ chmod +x installer.sh
$ sudo ./installer.shThe recommended way to start Wired is just to put the following in your autostart script:
/path/to/wired &
There is also a wired.service file in the root of the repository if you want to use systemd. Just copy it to /usr/local/lib/systemd/user/wired.service (or your distro equivalent) and run:
$ systemctl enable --now --user wired.service
