node-red-node-prowl
===================
A <a href="http://nodered.org" target="_new">Node-RED</a> node to send local popup notifications.
Uses [Growl](http://growl.info//)
Install
-------
Run the following command in your Node-RED user directory - typically `~/.node-red`
npm install node-red-node-notify
Uses Growl so should work cross platform but will need **pre-reqs** installed...
see <a href="https://npmjs.org/package/growl" target="_new">this link</a> for detailed instructions.
If installing on Windows you MUST read the install instructions ... especially the bit about adding growlnotify to your path... or it WILL NOT work.
Usage
-----
Uses Growl to push the `msg.payload` to the local desktop.
The title can be set by `msg.topic`.
