from win10toast_click import ToastNotifier
# function
page_url = 'http://example.com/'
def open_url():
try:
webbrowser.open_new(page_url)
print('Opening URL...')
except:
print('Failed to open URL. Unsupported variable type.')
# initialize
toaster = ToastNotifier()
# showcase
toaster.show_toast(
"Example two", # title
"Click to open URL! >>", # message
icon_path=None, # 'icon_path'
duration=5, # for how many seconds toast should be visible; None = leave notification in Notification Center
threaded=True, # True = run other code in parallel; False = code execution will wait till notification disappears
callback_on_click=open_url # click notification to run function
