# Changelog

### `v6.0.0`

#### Breaking Changes

- Dropped support for node v6. As of v6 we currently support node versions 8, 10, and 12 (latest).
- Updated to the latest version of SnoreToast. This removes support for the `wait` option in that environment as it is now always on. Prepares the way for other new features added to the WindowsToaster.

#### Other

### `v5.4.2`

### `v5.0.2`

Non-obligatory fail. Fixes issue with multiple actions for macOS.

### `v5.0.1`

Obligatory fail. Fixes minor issue with non-JSON output for macOS.

### `v5.0.0`

#### Breaking Changes

_Note/TL;DR_: If you are just using `node-notifier` with things like `message`, `title` and `icon`, v5 should work just as before.

1.  CLI is now removed. Can be found in separate project: https://github.com/mikaelbr/node-notifier-cli. This means you no longer get the `notify` bin when installing `node-notifier`. To get this do `npm i [-g] node-notifier-cli`
2.  Changed toaster implementation from `toast.exe` to [Snoretoast](https://github.com/KDE/snoretoast). This means if you are using your custom fork, you need to change. SnoreToast has some better default implemented functionality.
3.  [terminal-notifier](https://github.com/julienXX/terminal-notifier) dependency has been bumped to `v1.7.1`. With that there can be changes in the API, and supports now reply and buttons. Output has changed to JSON by default, this means the output of some functions of the terminal-notifier has broken. See https://github.com/julienXX/terminal-notifier for more details. See [README](https://github.com/mikaelbr/node-notifier#usage-notificationcenter) for documentation on how to use the new features, or [an example file](https://github.com/mikaelbr/node-notifier/blob/master/example/macInput.js).
4.  `notify` method will now throw error if second argument is something else than function (still optional): [#138](https://github.com/mikaelbr/node-notifier/pull/138).

#### Additions

1.  Now supports \*BSD systems: [#142](https://github.com/mikaelbr/node-notifier/pull/142).
2.  With the new toaster implementation you can do more! For instance customize sound and close notification. See all options:

```javascript
{
  title: void 0, // String. Required
  message: void 0, // String. Required if remove is not defined
  icon: void 0, // String. Absolute path to Icon
  sound: false, // Bool | String (as defined by http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh761492.aspx)
  wait: false, // Bool. Wait for User Action against Notification or times out
  id: void 0, // Number. ID to use for closing notification.
  appID: void 0, // String. App.ID. Don't create a shortcut but use the provided app id.
  remove: void 0, // Number. Refer to previously created notification to close.
  install: void 0 // String (path, application, app id).  Creates a shortcut <path> in the start menu which point to the executable <application>, appID used for the notifications.
}
```

#### Fixes

1.  Fixes new lines on messages on Windows: [#123](https://github.com/mikaelbr/node-notifier/issues/123)

#### Technical Changes

_Internal changes for those who might be interested_.

1.  Dependencies bumped
2.  Unnecessary dependencies removed (`lodash.deepClone`). Now uses JSON serialize/deserialize instead.
3.  Project is auto-formatted by [`prettier`](https://github.com/jlongster/prettier).
4.  [Linting is added](https://github.com/mikaelbr/node-notifier/blob/master/.eslintrc)
5.  Added way to better debug what is happening by setting `DEBUG` env-var to `true`. See [CONTRIBUTE.md](https://github.com/mikaelbr/node-notifier/blob/master/CONTRIBUTE.md) for more details.

### `v4.0.1`

1.  Fixes issue with optional callback for notify-send

### `v4.0.0`

Major changes and breaking API.

1.  require('node-notifier') now returns an instance with fallbackable notifications.

```js
var notifier = require('node-notifier');
notifier.notify();
```

2.  Introduced a `wait` property (default `false`), to get user input for
    Notification Center, Windows Toaster, Windows Balloons and Growl. Sadly not
    for notify-send.

```js
var notifier = require('node-notifier');
notifier.notify({ wait: true }, function(err, response) {
  // response is response after user have interacted
  // with the notification or the notification has timed out.
});
```

3.  All notification instances are now event emitters, emitting events
    `click` or `timeout`. This is only applicable if `{ wait: true }`.

```js
var notifier = require('node-notifier');
notifier.on('click', function(notificationObject, options) {
  // options.someArbitraryData === 'foo'
});
notifier.notify({ wait: true, someArbitraryData: 'foo' });
```

4.  WindowsToaster and NotificationCenter now can have sounds by doing `{ sound: true }`.
    Default NotificationCenter sound is Bottle. Can still use define sound on
    Mac:

```js
var notifier = require('node-notifier');
notifier.notify({ sound: true });
// For mac (same as sound: true on Windows 8)
notifier.notify({ sound: 'Morse' });
```
