ntfy is a notification tool that sends desktop notifications when long-running commands complete, either successfully or with errors. It supports various notification backends, such as Notify-OSD, desktop files, or Slack.
This tutorial will explain how to install ntfy on Fedora CoreOS latest, using the command-line interface.
Before starting, you need to ensure that:
ntfy requires Python 3.5 or later, as well as some Python packages. To install the required dependencies, run the following commands:
sudo dnf update
sudo dnf install python3 python3-pip
Now, it's time to install ntfy. You can install it via pip, which is the Python package manager. Run the following command to install ntfy:
sudo pip3 install ntfy
To test whether ntfy is working correctly, run the following command:
ntfy send test message
This should display a desktop notification that says "test message". If you don't see any notification, make sure that your desktop environment supports notifications and that the notification daemon is running.
ntfy is a useful tool for receiving notifications when long-running commands complete, and it's easy to install on Fedora CoreOS latest via pip.
Congratulations, you've successfully installed ntfy on your Fedora CoreOS instance. Now you can use it to get notified about command progress and completion.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
