Description:

Notifies you of song changes using native popup dialogs (via org.freedesktop.Notifications if you have it, kdialog if you don't). It is intended as a replacement for the built-in OSD.

If you are looking for notifications using libnotify, look at meerkat's NotifyAmarok: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/NotifyAmarok?content=103307.



Contact me if you want to add to the existing translations (English, Polish*, Spanish, Italian, Russian, French, German).
Feel free to leave any suggestions or requests.

Changelog:

Known Bugs:
- "Resumed Playing" is sometimes triggered when skipping tracks. (it seems trackPlayPause is being called for some reason)
- when a notifiction is reused, it disappears as per the original timeout

0.5:
Since most of the features added here, though significant, I took them from meerkat's NotifyAmarok, I think this partial jump is warranted.
- FEATURE: added new metadata tags (pretty much all the ones there are plus some from NotifyAmarok)
- FEATURE: added option to display album art in notification
- FEATURE: added ability to change paused message independently
- [0.5.1] FIX: now reuses old amaroKnotify notifications (only works with org.freedesktop.Notifications) not until Amarok fully implements its qtscriptbindings and includes some form of QProcess.execute
- [0.5.1] FIX: if the new Notifications interface does not exist, will fall back to kdialog
- [0.5.1] added French translation, courtesy of oboulonis
- [0.5.2] added German translation, courtesy of hoihappen
- [0.5.2] FIX: fixed some problems with non-ASCII characters and kdialog
- [0.5.3] updated Russian translation, courtesy of nu11
- [0.5.3] FIX: untranslated text will now default to English
- [0.5.3] FIX: fixed some more problems with accented characters affecting covers
- [0.5.4] Updated Spanish translations courtesy of Fenix-TX

0.3
- FIX: If you cancel, the configuration dialog does not retain the old settings anymore.
- FIX: If you restart, the duration value is retained.
- FEATURE: Added volume change notification
- FEATURE: added configuration controls for deciding which notifications to receive
- [0.3.1] added Italian translation, courtesy of diegolanteri
- [0.3.2] added Russian translation, courtesy of HucK
- [0.3.3] FIX: stopping or exiting will no longer trigger a notification

- [0.2.2] added Spanish translation, courtesy of Fenix-TX

0.1
- Initial Creation

 WELL DONE!

Very useful script, well dome.

On my system the notifications are adding up until their expiring time is up.

For example a volume notification is appearing each 1%, so if I raise the volume by 10% I will have 10 notifications on my screen.

Could you add a function to cancel the previous notification before a new one is displayed?

I've got a translation in Italian where can I send it?

This is also in response to the previous comment.

I'm glad you found my script useful.

I was thinking of using the dbus interface (particularly org.kde.notify and org.kde.VisualNotifications), but unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work very well from the command line, nor are there qtscript bindings for them. This would fix both problems. If anybody has any advice, please enlighten me (it would be greatly appreciated).

Unfortunately, there is no clean way to cancel notifications, but I'll attempt to address that problem.

 Great Script

This script is great. I was hoping to find something like this.

Is there any chance that (over time) things like album cover art, and/or music control buttons can be added? Or is that impossible?

Unfortunately, I cannot find a way to do this just yet with KDE 4.3.

The event method in org.kde.knotify doesn't seem to work, and the org.freedesktop.notification specification is nowhere to be found in qdbus (in fact, I can't seem to find any conclusive information about its status in regards to KDE). If anybody has some information to the contrary, I would be more than happy to listen to it.

 Broken?

The latest version seems broken, it fails to show a plasma notification and shows a plain notification instead:

Any fix for this?

Unfortunately, I do not know what might be causing this problem. What happens if you try to run db.py manually? Something like:

./db.py "title" "header" "body" 4 1

Any chance that this update fixed it?

Unfortunally, it's still broken. I tried to run you test command within the script folder, but it complains about an uninitialized key:

---
File "./db.py", line 41, in main
if metadata['arturl'] :
KeyError: 'arturl'
---

I am working on a implementation of my own for a firefox extension. Have a look at the implementation, it works:

Maybe you see the differences

 0.5 doesn't work

version 0.5 doesn't work for me in KDE 4.3: when trying to execute db.py manually I get the error:
dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided by any .service files

Also, the translation files are missing the TEXT_TITLE_HELP field, this makes the config dialog not appear at all in non-english locales

Sorry about that.

I updated to 4.3.1 recently, and completely forgot to account for this. If org.freedesktop.Notifications doesn't work, it should go back to using kdialog (which is only missing a little bit of the functionality that switching to this new service allows for). Hopefully this works for you.

And thank you for notifying me, I've updated the translation files with placeholder text.

Thanks for the quick fix. It works now, but only if "show cover art" is unchecked. I know that knotify can't show images, but it should just ignore that option instead of failing.

Also, a little cosmetic issue: the title of the popup now says "notification from kdialog" instead of "now listening", which looks a little ugly imho.

Hm. That's odd.

It should appear as "Configure amaroKnotify" under the Settings menu. However, it doesn't appear when the script isn't working... are notifications currently appearing when you play songs?

Found in debug output:
SCRIPT "amaroKnotify" : "ReferenceError: TEXT_TITLE_HELP is not defined"
I'm using ru_RU.UTF-8 locale, and this string is not defined in russian translation. When using en_US.UTF-8 configuration entry appers in setting menu. Please add this to russian translation file:
const TEXT_TITLE_HELP = "Справка";
This bug can be fixed by loading translation defined by system language, and then english translation to add untranslated entries:
if (QFile.exists(Amarok.Info.scriptPath() + '/' + languageFileName)) {
Importer.include(languageFileName);
}
Importer.include('lang/en.js');

Ah, that seems to work for me. Thanks for this solution! I will update it soon.

I have also added your translation along with some more I have gleaned from Ubuntu's translation site.

Hello,
I like Amaroknotify, but i think than i found a bug with the accents (á, é, í, ó, ú).When the name or the title of the song has accents, amaroknotify dont show any cover. Its posible than happens with other special characters

Thanks for the script and im sorry for my english
