win10toast Documentation

Install the library using pip to enable Windows 10 Toast Notifications in your Python applications.

pip install win10toast

By setting threaded=True in show_toast(), the notification will run in its own thread, allowing your main application to continue executing. To prevent the application from exiting before the notification is finished, use toaster.notification_active() in a loop to poll the status.

import time
from win10toast import ToastNotifier

toaster = ToastNotifier()

toaster.show_toast("Example two",
                   "This notification is in it's own thread!",
                   icon_path=None,
                   duration=5,
                   threaded=True)

# Wait for threaded notification to finish
while toaster.notification_active(): 
    time.sleep(0.1)

Use the ToastNotifier class to trigger notifications. You can specify the title, message, an optional icon path, and the duration the notification remains visible.

from win10toast import ToastNotifier

toaster = ToastNotifier()
toaster.show_toast("Hello World!!!",
                   "Python is 10 seconds awsm!",
                   icon_path="custom.ico",
                   duration=10)
