Installation

Requirements

• Go 1.21 or newer
• For the database channel: PostgreSQL, MySQL, or SQLite — connected via database/sql.

Install

go get github.com/gopackx/go-notification

That's the entire dependency. Drivers for specific providers live under subpackages and are pulled in when you import them.

Import what you need

You only import the drivers you actually use. Nothing is enabled by default — there is no wildcard import.

import (
    "github.com/gopackx/go-notification/notification"
    "github.com/gopackx/go-notification/channel/mail/mailgun"
    "github.com/gopackx/go-notification/channel/whatsapp/waha"
)

This keeps the binary small. If you never use Slack, the Slack driver isn't compiled in.

Verify

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/gopackx/go-notification/notification"
)

func main() {
    notifier := notification.New(notification.Config{})
    fmt.Println("go-notification ready:", notifier != nil)
}

Run go run . — if it prints go-notification ready: true, you're done.
