FYI (for your information) is a command line utility to send desktop notifications to the user via a notification daemon implementing XDG desktop notifications.
It is almost a notify-send clone, with the following differences:
notify-send does not implement --close.
notify-send does not expose activation tokens (needed for window focus/activation) in any meaningful way. It prints it as a debug message when G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all; fyi prints it when you use --print-token.
fyi has consistent syntax in its --action and --hintoptions.
fyi can print the reason a notification was closed, with --print-reason.
fyi can query the notification daemon for its name and version information.
fyi can query the notification daemon for its capabilities.
fyi has a single run-time dependency: dbus (the original D-Bus implementation).
NOTE: fyi exposes a bug in fnott (<=1.7.0), which has already been fixed upstream, so in case there's interest in adding fyi to the repo, maybe we should wait until the next version of fnott is released (@travankor).
Does the requested package meet the package requirements?
