show missed notifications?

Open mpanarin opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

Is there a way to implement showing missed notifications?

for example, I open emacs 5 minutes before the event i should be alerted on. And my configured interval is 10 minutes.

Currently, I won't be notified of such event

Hi, thanks for the report!

No, unfortunately, there’s no such functionality. I am by no means against it and would be happy if someone contributes the code.

Meanwhile I would suggest looking into WILD_NOTIFIER_NOTIFY_BEFORE for the most important events.

How about (adding a time-stamp to the output and) using sticky notifications?

As I have learned, the alert package (which is being used by this project) has a cool setting:

;;   `alert-persist-idle-time'
;;     After this many idle seconds, alerts will become sticky, and not
;;     fade away more.  The default is 15 minutes.

So I'd go with something like (setq alert-persist-idle-time 60).

Disclaimer: I just stumbled over this package.

@novoid I think that solves a different issue than what @mpanarin is mentioning. He's talking about the case where emacs was not open at all at the relvant time when he should have been alerted.

Oh, in that case, my workaround would not cover the use-case, yes.

I'm sorry, I was not aware that there are people who don't have a running Emacs instance 24/7. ;-)
