Simple wrapper around zenity, osascript and vbscript that lets you show native alert dialogs on Linux, OSX and Windows, respectively.
var dialog = require('dialog');
dialog.info('Hello there');To show a generic info dialog:
dialog.info(msg, title, callback);
// example, setting title
dialog.info('Ground control to major Tom.', 'My app', function(err){
if (!err) console.log('User clicked OK');
})To show a warning dialog:
dialog.warn(msg, title, callback);
// example, without setting title
dialog.warn('This computer will autoterminate itself in 5 seconds.', function(err){
if (!err) console.log('User clicked OK');
})To show buttons:
dialog.info(msg, title, buttons, callback);
dialog.info('Do you want to continue?', 'Alert', ['No', 'Yes'], function(err, result){
if (!err && (result.trim() === 'button returned:Yes')) {
console.log('User clicked Yes')
}
})title, buttons, and callback are optional. Default title shown is "Important". Default button is "OK".
