Shruti is an open source notification system that lets one listen to all those updates instead of reading them themselves.
It uses Ivona service to convert text to speech.
It is meant to be used as a web based service, but its trivial to use it locally as a desktop application.
Its written in Go, builds are available for Gnu\Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.
- There are 4 major parts of the system. Backend API server, Providers, Client and a supporting ivona microservice.
- Backend API takes care of dumping data to postgres and serve it on demand
- Providers collect data from various sources and push it to the backend server
- Client manages to read these updates at loud for you
- Ivona service makes it easier to communicate with Ivona API
btw, it also supports instant push notifications using pusher.com
- I am bored of reading everything myself. I would love if someone does the job for me
- Something that will check
- HN, few reddit channels
- twitter. My timeline and few accounts I like to keep up with
- some headlines from bbc
- some important server statuses
- build server status updates if important
- New email upon arrival. From and Subject
- Share market updates. Few important share values I care about
- any any other sites I can think of
- any other devices that keep track of something -... and read out loud every 15-30 minutes.
- Hence (:
- "shruti" is a Sanskrit term, which in the context of Indian music, is considered the smallest interval of pitch that the human ear can detect Shruti - wikipedia
- besides, it is quite common name over here, and sounds catchy enough!
