Send a single notification on a remote host
Both sender and Growl client (Mac or Windows) should share the same password.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project name="phing-GrowlNotifyTask" basedir="." default="notification"> <taskdef name="growlnotify" classname="phing.tasks.ext.GrowlNotifyTask" /> <target name="notification" description="display a single message with growl gntp over network" > <growlnotify message="Deployment of project LAMBDA is finished." host="192.168.1.2" password="seCretPa$$word" /> </target> </project>
Send a single notification with UDP protocol
When you don't have a Macintosh, OS compatible with Growl GNTP, you should use the basic UDP protocol.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project name="phing-GrowlNotifyTask" basedir="." default="notification"> <taskdef name="growlnotify" classname="phing.tasks.ext.GrowlNotifyTask" /> <target name="notification" description="display a single message with growl udp over network" > <growlnotify message="Notify my MAC that does not accept GNTP." host="192.168.1.2" password="seCretPa$$word" protocol="udp" /> </target> </project>
Send an important notification
If you want to send a notification that is so important that you don't want to missed it, even if you are away from your computer. Use the sticky attribute.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project name="phing-GrowlNotifyTask" basedir="." default="notification"> <taskdef name="growlnotify" classname="phing.tasks.ext.GrowlNotifyTask" /> <target name="notification" description="display a sticky message on desktop" > <growlnotify message="Project LAMDBA, unit tests FAILED." priority="high" sticky="true" /> </target> </project>
Use your icons to identify an application
You may customize the Growl notification system, with different icons and more.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project name="phing-GrowlNotifyTask" basedir="." default="notification"> <taskdef name="growlnotify" classname="phing.tasks.ext.GrowlNotifyTask" /> <target name="notification" description="display a custom icon message" > <growlnotify message="Have a look on my beautiful message!" name="phing Notifier" title="phing notification" priority="low" sticky="false" appicon="../images/my_icon.png" /> </target> </project>
