okay, got it working. Titan gave me the script he was using. Seems there's a few of these notify.pl scripts floating around. His worked for me.
So now that that's done, next is to get it working with the notify bar scripts (inspired by z3bra) I've been using. Doesn't require dbus or dunst for displaying notifications. Not quite as full featured as dunst, but its a cool option.
Still some kinks to work out, but its working. Thanks to Titan and Rusty for helping to test

I have in $HOME/bin a file name popchat

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
## popchat                                                                      
## inspired by z3bra
                                                                  
duration=10
# size and color
baropt='-d -g 450x30+100+35 -B #ff0c0b0a -F #fff9f9f9'  
# display                                                
(echo " $@"; sleep ${duration}) | bar ${baropt}

then comment out the "EXEC - notify-send" on line 41 and replace with

Code: Select all

"EXEC - popchat"
and to center it
"EXEC - popchat %{c}"

you'll see duplicate messages so on line 59 comment out

Code: Select all

notify($server, $summary, $stripped);

and replace with

Code: Select all

notify($server, $summary);

it doesn't auto expand per content, but you can find a happy-medium length to work with

using fnotify for irssi, sending IRC notifications to bar. fnotify collects all notifications to you in a fnotify file in ~/.irssi/. I'm just printing out the last line (most recent) to the bar script, then because I haven't figured a more practical solution yet, clear the file once printed to clear the notification on next read. Not ideal as lose all notifications collected, say if away for awhile.
So my super lame implementation phase 1 is

Code: Select all

#! /bin/bash
file="$HOME/.irssi/fnotify"
#filetmp="$HOME/tmp/fnotify"
awk 'END{print}' $file
> $file

Look, I know, it sucks. But it works for me. If I come up with anything better, I'll share.

Here's an incomplete list of my weechat setup ( also thanks to dcat and earsplit for providing the unicode characters.
I'm currently busy right now but once i'm done ( which is going to be a while ), i'll post an update here with more tweaks and details.

** Install the following scripts **

# For ricing and looking up settings ( You should NEVER edit your weechat.conf by hand )
/script install iset.pl

# For a prettier Buffer list:
/script install buffers.pl

# For highlights
/script install newsbar.pl

# For changing the highlight msg or line colors
/script install colorize_lines.pl

** Now comes the Fun part **

# Normal nick colors ( I don't need a rainbow )
/set weechat.color.chat_nick_colors white

# For higlighted text color ( black to ensure so that it doesn't get in the way )
/set weechat.color.chat_highlight_bg black
/set weechat.color.chat_highlight yellow

# For changing my nick color
/set weechat.color.chat_nick_self blue

# Hide the Title Bar
/bar hide title

# Hide the Status bar
/bar hide status

# Prettier nicklist

/bar set nicklist position top
/bar set nicklist size 20
/bar set nicklist filling_left_right horizontal
/bar set nicklist filling_top_bottom columns_vertical

# Thanks to dcat
/set buffers.look.name_crop_suffix "…"

# Max Nick length allowed
/set weechat.look.prefix_align_max "7"

# When nick length is longer than limit this character will be shown
/set weechat.look.prefix_align_more "…"

# Thanks to earsplit
/set weechat.look.bar_more_down ▼
/set weechat.look.bar_more_left ◀
/set weechat.look.bar_more_right ▶
/set weechat.look.bar_more_up ▲

/set weechat.look.prefix_suffix "│"
/set weechat.color.chat_prefix_suffix darkgray
/set weechat.color.separator darkgray

# Character used for nick autocompleition
/set weechat.completion.nick_completer ,

# For removing the annoying -- line break ( Yes, don't provide any arguments for the first one )
/set weechat.look.read_marker_string
/set weechat.color.chat_read_marker black

# Highlight sorting:
/set plugins.var.perl.newsbar.most_recent last

# Change the color of the buffer name of channel when higlighted
/set buffers.color.hotlist_highlight_fg red

** Help commands ( tl;dr man pages )**

# For the script command
/help script

# For setting up Key Binds
/help key

# For the buffers.pl
/help buffers.pl

mmmh, we like unicode ;)
nice config

Posted: **Tue Mar 10, 2015 3:46 pm**

cool stark, thanks! out of curiosity and because i always like to hear reasons: why shouldnt you EVER edit your weechat.conf file by hand? does it get overwritten by the program so it is useless? will it break shit? i dont like it when somebody tells me i cannot do something. it makes me want to do it. :D

Posted: **Tue Mar 10, 2015 3:50 pm**

^ No major reasons, just because you don't need to as iset.pl exists :D

Posted: **Tue Mar 10, 2015 4:06 pm**

Nice write up stark. Thanks for the contribution

Ha rho. I already busted his balls on irc. Brvause as you know I'm all about the conf file. Isnt that the linux way anyway?
But fwiw the isset add on was pretty nice.

Posted: **Tue Mar 10, 2015 4:36 pm**

epic post, stark :)

Posted: **Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:09 pm**

Posted: **Wed Mar 11, 2015 12:56 am**

my favorite

Code: Select all

# Max Nick length allowed
/set weechat.look.prefix_align_max "7"

b/c rusty's name screws up my alignment .... haha
