Usage

Daemon

You can toggle pause of the poller with sending SIGUSR1. Or clicking on the waybar icon if you use my configuration. You will got the lists of alerts on mouse over the icon.

If popup are enable you will got a popup if alerts number raise.

Client

Client mode was mainly done to be integrated with dmenu.

There is a client mode waybar-livestatus -c. Without params this will display the list of alerts. You can then pass host and service as params to get the notes_url.
