[Win10 Issue] Update SnoreToast Version to latest. Not sending notifications anymore. #315

Open cjbenavides88 opened 4 years ago

cjbenavides88 commented 4 years ago

Problem

SnoreToast current version is not working anymore with Windows 10 latest updates.

Context

I use laravel-mix in my workflow and it's not fun when I don't get notification when the script finished its tasks. It simply don't show any notification.

Proposal

I would like to suggest updating SnoreToast dependency to the latest (v7) since it's current version is not working anymore with the latest updates for Windows 10. I have to manually update the SnoreToast.EXE file to make it work for every project. Would be nice if it is included as a part of the package.

I am having the same issue, also using laravel-mix 😑, it would be great to get this updated. @cjbenavides88 how do you manually update the SnoreToast.EXE file to make it work?

  1. Download latest SnoreToast
  2. Run NPM INSTALL in your project
  3. Under node_modules search for snoretoast.exe

Sadly I am not on my PC right now to give you the exact path, but that's my workflow to solve that issue.

Thanks @cjbenavides88 , It works! The path to SnoreToast.exe is node_modules/node-notifier/vendor/snoreToast. Would still be amazing to get this fixed!

Snoretoast is already on latest 0.7.0 since November 2019, see PR #293
