MacOS notification from terminal

Create notify script:

sudo vi /usr/local/bin/notify

with content:

#!/usr/bin/osascript

on run argv
        if length of argv = 1 then
                display notification (item 1 of argv) with title "Notification" sound name "Glass"
        else if length of argv > 1 then
                display notification (item 1 of argv) with title (item 2 of argv) sound name "Glass"
        else
                return "<message> is required\nUsage: notify <message>[ <title>]"
        end if
end run

Make it executable:

sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/notify

Now you can trigger mac os native notification from terminal:

# notification without title
notify "Test message"

# or with custom title
notify "Test message" "Test title"
