Does not work or silent failure?

[rchrd2]

I gave this package a shot, but could not get it work. Here are some of my notes:

• Created a repo and django project with a postgesdb.
• Created a "hello" app.
• Run the following code:

settings.py

EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend'

Created the files test-notification_email_message.txt, and test-notification_email_subject.txt

From the console.

from notifier.shortcuts import create_notification
create_notification('test-notification')

That created a row in "notifier_notification"

1   2015-01-16 18:37:01.17277-08    2015-01-16 18:37:01.172997-08   test-notification   test-notification   TRUE

Now to send the email

from notifier.shortcuts import send_notification
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
u = User.objects.get(pk=1)
send_notification('test-notification', [u])

This does nothing? Any ideas?

I liked the concept of this package. I like that backends can be added such as Push Notifications, SMS, etc.
