Getting started#
Installing Windows-Toasts#
The latest version of Windows-Toasts requires Python 3.9 or later, and supports Windows 10 and 11.
It can be installed using pip:
$ python -m pip install windows-toasts
Install from source#
The stable release version will most likely include the library’s latest developments, but you can also install it directly from GitHub, where the code is hosted.
First, clone the repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/DatGuy1/Windows-Toasts.git
You can then embed it in your own Python package, or install it into your site-packages:
$ cd Windows-Toasts
$ python -m pip install .
Quickstart#
To display a toast notification:
# We import WindowsToaster and a toast format we want
from windows_toasts import WindowsToaster, Toast
# Prepare the toaster for bread (or your notification)
toaster = WindowsToaster('Python')
# Initialise the toast
newToast = Toast()
# Set the body of the notification
newToast.text_fields = ['Hello, World!']
# And display it!
toaster.show_toast(newToast)
