If a notification isn't configurable (e.g. because the application doesn't set a desktop-entry hint),
there's no way for the user to keep it out of the history if they so desire, causing excess history spam.
Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D22048
- Rename some of the classes:
NotificationServer -> Server (there's namespaces, you know)
NotificationModel -> NotificationsModel (so it's plural like JobsModel)
- Introduce NotificationGroupingCollapse
- Wire up PulseAudio-qt for eventual notification silence in dnd mode
- Touch up notification looks
- Add indentation and "line" for grouped plasmoids
- Rethink "show more" button to be at the end
- Fix buttons overlapping
- Remove NotificationDelegate item and do those few adjustments in FullRepresentation
- Cleanup job details, handle when processed > total
- Use States {} more
- Show low urgency popups by default but don't add them to history
- Rework compact representation animations a bit
For some reason they often got stuck
- Implement do not disturb mode for applications
- Add fallback timeout to ensure notifications eventually timeout
Otherwise when disabling dnd mode you will get spammed
and we would also keep apps running indefinitely waiting for the notification to close
- Install plasmanotifyrc with some sane defaults
So far only lets Spectacle show its screenshot notifications in dnd mode
- Introduce Closable role rather than hardcoding that behavior everywhere in the view
- Better app identification/grouping for jobs
- Be more lenient about app identification (firefox will match Firefox, too)
- Cleanups
- Improve compact reprsentation
- Keep popup open during interaction (context menu, drag)
- Improve "ago" label (e.g. show "Last Sunday")
- Improve group visuals (still pretty much WIP)
- Hide popups when interacted (opened file, triggered file action, etc)
Closing when having invoked an action isn't implemented yet but is probably neccessary
- Make autohide job popup setting work
- Set critical AlwaysOnTop (requires KWin patch)
- Improve error handling in ThumbnailStrip
Show file icon if thumbnail generation failed instead of a blank space
- Add heuristic for popup placement and make custom setting work
- Add deviceName and displayApplicationName (for KDE Connect)
So it can show from which device and which app this notification originally came from
- Improved service discovery (and defaultComponent handling)
Quite a few notifications, e.g. DrKonqi crashes are in plasma_workspace.notifyrc
When we get an event like this, show the original app instead
- Make blacklist for popup and history work
- Add "lastRead" property for "unread" handling vs "expired" (latter likely to be dropped)
- Add sortMode so history is strictly sorted by date (it's grouped after all)
- Begin work on do not disturb UI in plasmoid
- Also moe the NotificationPopup item back to the root folder
- Implement tracking of unknown apps, ie. once an app shows a notificaton it will show up
in the KCM so it can be configured
- Make blacklisting of notification popups (via setting in KCM) work
- Start on inhibition stuff (DBus API proposal sent to XDG mailing list)
- Cleanup, pimpl NotificationServer and Notification for export
- Wire the old dataengine up to use it for compat:
it shows notifications but is otherwise pretty broken right now
- Start writing kconfigxt and Settings code (no real code yet)
- Add a Inhibition DBus interface (no actual server-side code yet)
- Group notifications by application
Pretty much tasks grouping model from libtaskmanager slightly adjusted
- Let widget take full height when expanded in vertical panel "side bar usecase"
- Fix bugs here and there
- Notification action buttons
- Custom icon pixmaps in notifications
- Popup handling
- Notification urgency (low isn't shown as popup TBD, critical always no matter what)
- History stuff (only expired notifications end up there, none that were closed or revoked)
- Text selection and copy for body text
- Basic tray icon support
and many other things
Application jobs are shown as part of regular notifications:
- They show up as little popup that can be hidden in the history
- When finished progress popup turns into a notification
There's still some glitches and missing features, notably
- Screenshot thumbnails
- "Open" functionality for finished jobs
- History layout
- code cleanup
- and basically every configuration option
