yo-yo traverses a directory for json or plist formatted code parameters for Yo, and creates notifications using yo. Installing a LaunchAgent to watch a directory and trigger yo-yo allows applications running as root to deliver notifications to the session. yo-yo deletes the notification file after successfully executing yo, promising at most once delivery. This won't work in a multi user context.

Notification file example: The keys in the json or plist file mirror yo's cli flags.

    <key>title</key>
    <string>Foo</string>
    <key>subtitle</key>
    <string>bar</string>

</plist>

yo-yo accepts the following options:

• -n: The directory containing the files for notifications.
• -p: The path to the Yo executable. Defaults to /usr/local/bin/yo.
