Ding! Your process is done.

Primary LanguagePython

Ding!

A simple way to be notified of long-running processes finishing, even if they're on remote servers.

Requirements

  • Python
  • MQTT broker

Usage

Copy config.json.example to ~/.ding.conf and modify it with your settings. If there is no keyword specified, ding will just play the "bell" sound. Otherwise, it will play the special alert for the given keyword.

Run bell.py on a computer with speakers.

Then you can run ding on any computer that you wish to have trigger a sound.

One handy usage is to have it trigger after a long-running command:

YOUR_LONG_RUNNING_COMMAND AND_ARGUMENTS GOES_HERE; ding keyword
