netlink-notify
==============
**Notify about netlink changes**
This runs in background and produces notifications whenever a netlink event
is received. Notifications look like this:
A device is down:
![Device down](screenshots/down.png)
A device is up:
![Device up](screenshots/up.png)
A device received an IP address:
![Device received IP address](screenshots/ip.png)
A device received an IPv6 address:
![Device received IPv6 address](screenshots/ipv6.png)
A device disappeared:
![Device disappeared](screenshots/away.png)
Requirements
------------
To compile and run `netlink-notify` you need:
* [systemd](https://www.github.com/systemd/systemd)
* [libnotify](http://library.gnome.org/devel/notification-spec/)
* [linux](http://www.kernel.org/)
* [markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/) (HTML documentation)
* [inkscape](http://inkscape.sourceforge.net/) (convert icons from SVG to PNG)
Some systems may require additional development packages for the libraries.
Look for `libnotify-devel` or similar.
Build and install
-----------------
Building and installing is very easy. Just run:
> make
followed by:
> make install
This will place an executable at `/usr/bin/netlink-notify`,
documentation can be found in `/usr/share/doc/netlink-notify/`.
Additionally a systemd unit file is installed to `/usr/lib/systemd/user/`.
Usage
-----
Just run `netlink-notify` to run it once. A systemd user service can be
started and/or enabled with `systemctl --user start netlink-notify`
or `systemctl --user enable netlink-notify`.
