Gotify desktop
Small Gotify daemon to receive messages and forward them as desktop notifications.
Features
- Read Gotify messages, and forward them as standard desktop notification (works on Linux/MacOS, and likely other Unix flavors)
- Forward message priority
- Auto reconnect if server connection is lost (unreliable network, laptop suspend...), and get missed messages
- Automatically download, cache, and show app icons
- Fast and self contained binary (no runtime dependencies)
- Optional features:
- ignore messages below a given priority level
- delete messages once received
- run command on each received message
