About:
Noti is a command-line utility that triggers desktop notifications upon the completion of a specified process. It allows users to run any command or script and get an immediate visual alert when the task finishes, eliminating the need to constantly monitor long-running terminal jobs. This tool is particularly useful for developers and system administrators who need to be notified of completion for tasks like compilations, data backups, or downloads.
Key Features:
  • Cross-platform support for macOS, Linux, and Windows
  • Supports multiple notification services including Apple Script, Notify-send, and Pushover
  • Simple CLI syntax to wrap any command or script
  • Configurable via a YAML file for custom providers and messages
Use Cases:
  • Notifying when a long software compilation or build process has finished
  • Alerting when a large file download or data backup is complete
  • Signaling the end of a resource-intensive machine learning model training
Alternatives:
  • terminal-notifier – macOS-specific, whereas Noti provides cross-platform support and more provider integrations.
  • alerter – Similar macOS utility, but Noti is designed to be a more generic, multi-platform solution.
