NAME

Log::Dispatch::DesktopNotification - Send log messages to a desktop notification system

SYNOPSIS

    my $notify = Log::Dispatch::DesktopNotification->new(
        name      => 'notify',
        min_level => 'debug',
        app_name  => 'MyApp',
    );

METHODS

new

Creates a new Log::Dispatch output that can be used to graphically notify a user on this system. Uses output_class and calls new on the returned class, passing along all arguments.

output_class

Returns the name of a Log::Dispatch::Output class that's suitable to graphically notify a user on the current system.

On MacOS X that'll be Log::Dispatch::MacGrowl. On other systems Log::Dispatch::Gtk2::Notify will be returned if it's available and usable. Otherwise Log::Dispatch::Null will be returned.

BUGS

Currently only supports Mac OS X and systems on which notification-daemon is available (most *N*Xes).
