## Features
- Show one or more highlighted notifications in a single floating window.
- Manage notifications (add, update, remove, clear).
- Custom `vim.notify()` implementation. To adjust, use `MiniNotify.make_notify()` after calling `setup()`.
- Automated show of LSP progress report.
- Track history which can be accessed with `MiniNotify.get_all()` and shown with `MiniNotify.show_history()`.
## Installation
This plugin can be installed as part of 'mini.nvim' library (**recommended**) or as a standalone Git repository.
There are two branches to install from:
- `main` (default, **recommended**) will have latest development version of plugin. All changes since last stable release should be perceived as being in beta testing phase (meaning they already passed alpha-testing and are moderately settled).
- `stable` will be updated only upon releases with code tested during public beta-testing phase in `main` branch.
Here are code snippets for some common installation methods (use only one):
(Recommended) With vim.pack (on Neovim 0.12 and newer)
**Full library**
Follow ['mini.nvim' installation](https://nvim-mini.org/mini.nvim#installation).
**Standalone plugin**
Main branch:
```lua
vim.pack.add({ 'https://github.com/nvim-mini/mini.notify' })
```
Stable branch:
```lua
vim.pack.add({
{ src = 'https://github.com/nvim-mini/mini.notify', version = 'stable' },
})
```
With mini.deps (before Neovim 0.12)
**Full library**
Follow [recommended 'mini.deps' installation](https://nvim-mini.org/mini.nvim/readmes/mini-deps#installation).
**Standalone plugin**:
Main branch:
```lua
add('nvim-mini/mini.notify')
```
Stable branch:
```lua
add({ source = 'nvim-mini/mini.notify', checkout = 'stable' })
```
With folke/lazy.nvim
**Full library**
Follow ['mini.nvim' installation](https://nvim-mini.org/mini.nvim#installation).
**Standalone plugin**
Main branch:
```lua
{ 'nvim-mini/mini.notify', version = false },
```
Stable branch:
```lua
{ 'nvim-mini/mini.notify', version = '*' },
```
**Important**: don't forget to call `require('mini.notify').setup()` to enable its functionality.
**Note**: if you are on Windows, there might be problems with too long file paths (like `error: unable to create file : Filename too long`). Try doing one of the following:
- Enable corresponding git global config value: `git config --system core.longpaths true`. Then try to reinstall.
- Install plugin in other place with shorter path.
## Default config
```lua
-- No need to copy this inside `setup()`. Will be used automatically.
{
-- Content management
content = {
-- Function which formats the notification message
-- By default prepends message with notification time
format = nil,
-- Function which orders notification array from most to least important
-- By default orders first by level and then by update timestamp
sort = nil,
},
-- Notifications about LSP progress
lsp_progress = {
-- Whether to enable showing
enable = true,
-- Notification level
level = 'INFO',
-- Duration (in ms) of how long last message should be shown
duration_last = 1000,
},
-- Window options
window = {
-- Floating window config
config = {},
-- Maximum window width as share (between 0 and 1) of available columns
max_width_share = 0.382,
-- Value of 'winblend' option
winblend = 25,
},
}
```
