dunst - a dmenu-ish notification daemon

What is the benefit of using

notify-send -h int:value:42

with dunst? Because the value is displayed as text anyway. Or am i missing anything?

notify-send -h int:value:42 adsf

Seems to show "asdf" as the title, and "42" between brackets with a percentage sign at the end.

Is it possible to set the total amount of notifications that can be shown at the same time? Sometimes when I get a lot of notifications I just tells me there are X more but I can see them.

Is it possible to give Dunst notifications unique X classes?

Is it possible to send reply in dunst.
Can someone point any good resource where I can use python(or any language) to trigger a reply or option menu in dunst?

Do you mean like a PID to replace a notification with itself? If so, yes.

dunstify -r <Number>

Kinda, it supports context menus. I couldn't find any documentation about it though.

dunst has two hotkeys, one for a dmenu with urls and one for actions. If a notification has actions, then the prefix "(A)" is added to the notification, if it has URLs, then "(U)" is added or "(AU)" for both.

dunstify --action "yes,Accept" --action "no,Decline" "Action test" "Open the dmenu with the hotkey set for 'context' in your dunstrc"

As for creating actions with python, you can look into using GNotification or libnotify with gobject introspection
