COMMANDS

       action notification_position
           Performs  the  default action or, if not available, opens the context menu of the notification at the
           given position (starting count at the top, first notification being 0).

       close
           Close the topmost notification currently being displayed.

       close-all
           Close all notifications currently being displayed

       context
           Open  the  context  menu,  presenting  all  available  actions  and  urls  for  the  currently   open
           notifications.

       count [displayed/history/waiting]
           Returns  the  number  of  displayed,  shown  and  waiting  notifications. If no argument is provided,
           everything will be printed.

       history
           Exports the history as JSON.

       history-clear
           Deletes all notifications from the history.

       history-pop [ID]
           Redisplay the notification that was most recently closed. This can be called multiple times  to  show
           older  notifications,  up  to the history limit configured in dunst. You can optionally pass an ID to
           history-pop, in which case the notification with the given ID will be shown.

       history-rm ID
           Removes the notification with the given ID from the history.

       is-paused
           Check if dunst is currently running or paused. If dunst is paused notifications will be kept but  not
           shown until it is unpaused.

       set-paused true/false/toggle
           Set  the  paused status of dunst. If false, dunst is running normally, if true, dunst is paused (with
           maximum pause level of 100).  See the is-paused command and the dunst man page for more information.

       get-pause-level
           Get current dunst's pause level, where 0 is not paused and 100 is maximally paused.

           This can be  combined  with  notification's  override_pause_level  to  selectively  display  specific
           notifications while paused.

       set-pause-level [level]
           Set the pause level, where 0 is not paused and 100 is maximally paused.

           This  can  be  combined  with  notification's  override_pause_level  to  selectively display specific
           notifications while paused.

       rule rule_name enable/disable/toggle
           Enables, disables or toggles the rule identified by  its  name.  This  can  be  used  to  temporarily
           activate or deactivate specific rules.

       debug
           Tries  to contact dunst and checks for common faults between dunstctl and dunst.  Useful if something
           isn't working.
