CONFIGURATION

       The main config file is located in /etc/xdg/swaync/config.json. Copy it over to your
       ~/.config/swaync/ folder to customize without needing root access.

       To reload the config, you'll need to run swaync-client --reload-config

       For information on the config file format, see swaync(5)

Scripting

       Scripting rules and logic:

       1.   Only one script can be fired per notification
       2.   Each script requires `exec` and at least one of the other properties
       3.   All listed properties must match the notification for the script to be ran
       4.   If any of the propeties doesn't match, the script will be skipped
       5.   If a notification doesn't include one of the properties, that property will be
           skipped

       Notification information can be printed into a terminal by running G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all
       swaync (when a notification appears).

       Config properties:

           {
                "scripts": {
                     "example-script": {
                          "exec": "Your shell command or script here...",
                          "app-name": "Notification app-name Regex",
                          "summary": "Notification summary Regex",
                          "body": "Notification body Regex",
                          "urgency": "Low or Normal or Critical",
                          "category": "Notification category Regex"
                     }
                }
                other non scripting properties...
           }

       config.json example:

           {
                "scripts": {
                     // This script will only run when Spotify sends a notification containing
                     // that exact summary and body
                     "example-script": {
                          "exec": "~/.config/swaync/myRickRollScript.sh",
                          "app-name": "Spotify"
                          "summary": "Never Gonna Give You Up",
                          "body": "Rick Astley - Whenever You Need Somebody"
                     }
                }
                other non scripting properties...
           }

   Disable scripting
       To completely disable scripting, the project needs to be built like so:

           meson build -Dscripting=false
           ninja -C build
           meson install -C build

Waybar Example

       This example requires NotoSansMono Nerd Font to get the icons looking right
