networkd-notify: desktop notification integration for networkd

networkd-notify generates desktop notifications for systemd-networkd events, such as interface connection/disconnection.

The generated notifications look like:

wlan0: configuring ...
wlan0: online @ ESSID
wlan0: disconnected
...

Usage

Simply run networkd-notify at the start of your session:

./networkd-notify &

You'll need networkd to be running of course, and you'll also need a notification daemon such as dunst.
