can't see notifications? #99

Closed 4nd3r closed 5 years ago

yafp commented 5 years ago

Hi,

thx for the issue.

Just to clarify: what kind of notifications are we talking about? If ttth is not in focus on my linux boxes i do get notifications on linux (arch/ubuntu) for example in WhatsApp or Mattermost.

What os are you using, which ttth version?

4nd3r commented 5 years ago

i'm using debian, i3 and riot.im - tho, there shouldn't be anything specific really, because i can see notifications fine with firefox and chromium.

notifications are enabled in riot, but i don't see them when ttth is unfocused or hidden to tray.

did some testing with https://www.bennish.net/web-notifications.html

nothing.

i added this url to ttth using nextcloud service.

it shouldn't matter what kind of service i use for custom url?

yafp commented 5 years ago

If i

i do get a notification on Arch Linux.

Regarding your question: For custom urls i would always use the service type "Custom URL" - at the bottom of the service type dropdown.

hmm, looks like i'm missing somekind of dependency, because in terminal i see:

libnotify-WARNING **: 12:36:13.263: Failed to connect to proxy

For custom urls i would always use the service type "Custom URL" - at the bottom of the service type dropdown.

ahaa, there really is, but hidden because i didn't notice scrollbar. haha.

Please check if installing libnotify solves the issue and report back. Thanks

4nd3r commented 5 years ago

libnotify is installed, but i don't have notification daemon, because firefox/chromium can display notifications without that. if i install notification daemon, for example dunst, then i can see notifications.

now, i'm not sure if this is a bug, but rather annoyance. maybe add some lines about that to README?

Good question. I guess i add it to the FAQ or 'Known issues' section of the documentation.

Added it to docs/KNOWN_ISSUES.md in my dev environment. should be commited to github in the next days.
