Alarm clock scripts

The devs have been having some discussion about providing an alarm/alert script, and this is one that I have found in the YAD Wiki. I've tweaked some of the paths (icon, sound file, use mpv etc) and added the current time to the layout - it looks promising.

CONS: Even though it adds a notification to the systray, I can't see a way of cancelling the alarm as it stands. Perhaps the PID can be captured and used to kill the process?

Re: Alarm clock scripts

I do like the gui.

I did notice that there seems to be no way to cancel the sound test without ctrl+c in term, guessing that 'killall mpv' never gets executed.

Anything against using 'at' as back thingy? (It does survive the reboot) and once the timer is set the gui can be closed and forgotten. Also one can set many timers using variety of time formats.

I guess there is no easy way to stop sounds unless premaking player enviroment (pids?, pipe controled mpv?).

Re: Alarm clock scripts

No objection to at, except it isn't installed in a default BL. It is only 157kb though, but make sure to use --no-install-recommends or a vast amount of libs and mail bloat comes in with it.

Why not post the at script you found here?

Re: Alarm clock scripts

beepmein

A cli experiment at how could a simple reminder/alarm thing work (using linux 'at' command).

Usage example: 

beepmein 15            # minutes
beepmein --alarm 7:30  # hh:mm
beepmein --help        # for more

And will ask for reason, which you can provide or skip by pressing return.

edit, test playback and notifications, kill playback

beepmein --reaction "woot"
beepmein --reaction --alarm "alarm" & sleep 12 && killall beepmein
killall beepmein # to stop playback

Cons:  'at' doesn't use seconds, it will round to full minute, so your 'beepmein 1' may happen sooner than you think.

Re: Alarm clock scripts

In the yad script, the tray icon can be dismissed by middle-clicking, but the child process for the timer keeps on going sad

I don't know enough about exec redirects to kill the zombie! monkey

Either disable the middle click (in yad 0.42)

yad --help-notification
Usage:
  yad [OPTION...] - Yet another dialoging program

Notification icon options
  --notification                                 Display notification
  --menu=STRING                                  Set initial popup menu
  --no-middle                                    Disable exit on middle click
  --hidden                                       Doesn't show icon at startup
  --icon-size=SIZE                               Set icon size for fully specified icons (default - 16)

or use the timeout, and since entry is deprecated in the gtk3 versions switch to form dialog

Re: Alarm clock scripts

@misko_2083

Clever stuff! Couple of issues though:

The tooltips text isn't displaying (I had the same problem when experimenting with pipes);

Killing the yad systray notification causes the alarm to sound immediately. The script should exit before mpv "$SOUND" runs.

Tooltip is my fault, needed a fifo pipe. Fixed in edit.
If it still doesn't work maybe some sleep is needed before setting the tooltip.

Second issue, wait returns exit status, insert check after wait

wait $_pid
[ $? -eq 252 ] && exit

Re: Alarm clock scripts

I've added the tweaks, and the script shuts down gracefully smile

Since a middle mouse button isn't universal, and needs to be set up for a trackpad, I've found a way to use the left button to achieve the same thing (which is probably more natural anyway).

This is the relevant section:

# add handler for tray icon left click
function on_click() {
    xdotool click 2
}
export -f on_click

if [ "$COUNTDOWN" = "" ];then
    exit
else

echo You entered "${COUNTDOWN%"|"*}" minutes
TIMER=$(echo $((${COUNTDOWN%"|"*}*60)))
TASK1=$(date -s "+$TIMER seconds" 2>/dev/null | cut -d " " -f4)
temp=$(mktemp -u --tmpdir alarm.XXXXXXXX)

mkfifo $temp

exec 3<> $temp
timeout --preserve-status $TIMER yad --notification --command="bash -c on_click" --image=$ICON --listen <&3 & _pid=$!
echo "tooltip:Alarm clock is set to sound at $TASK1\n\nLeft click to cancel alarm" >&3

wait $_pid
[ $? -eq 252 ] && rm -f $temp && exit
rm $temp
exec 3>&-

There is a special command "quit".

quit   Exit the program. Middle click on icon also send quit command.

Return status is 0 when it's called, even with the right click menu.

timeout --preserve-status $TIMER yad --notification  --listen <&3 & _pid=$!
echo tooltip: $"Alarm clock was set to ${COUNTDOWN%"|"*} minutes \nand notifiers at $TASK1!" >&3
echo "action:quit" >&3
echo "menu:About!yad --about!gtk-info|Quit!quit!gtk-exit" >&3

Re: Alarm clock scripts

And I 'fixed' my versions internal beep and added --alarm switch (getting somehow messy code). Also removed 'flite' experiments.

So now one can:

beepmein 1            # to get internal beep (reminder)
beepmein --alarm 1    # to get mpv playing preconfigured sample and internal beep (alarm)

test-s:

beepmein --reaction "Reminder test"
beepmein --reaction --alarm "Alarm test"

The more annoying the easier to get up. smile

@damo The time is incorrect

"Time now is $(date +"%H:%m")"

"m" is for month, "M" for minutes.
Also the script continues after coundown dialog is closed, but that's also easy to fix (need to check for 252 return code).

I was thinking about displaying the current time in the dialog.
One way is to use wmctrl to change the title and the other one in to use the paned dialog.

Re: Alarm clock scripts

Sure.
First the window class is set.
That is used to find the window XID.

The function is called before yad dialog is launched.
Then the loop changes the title until the window is closed.

#!/bin/bash
win_class="some_class"

function change_title {
declare yad_xid

# need some time to register window class with X
while [[ ${yad_xid} == "" ]]; do
   # get Xwindow id
   yad_xid="$(wmctrl -lx | grep -e "yad.${win_class}" |  grep -oE "[0-9a-z]{10}")"
done

# convert to decimal number
yad_xid="$(echo $((${yad_xid})))"

while true
 do
   wmctrl -i -r "${yad_xid}" -N "$TITLE : $(date '+%T')" 2>/dev/null || break
   sleep 1
done
}

change_title &

yad --class="${win_class}" --title="This will change" --width=500

@damo The time is incorrect

"Time now is $(date +"%H:%m")"

"m" is for month, "M" for minutes.

Yes I caught that, and I'm now using 

%R     24-hour hour and minute; same as %H:%M

I was thinking about displaying the current time in the dialog.
One way is to use wmctrl to change the title and the other one in to use the paned dialog.

Which one is better?

The first is nicer smile

----------------------------------------------------
I've done some tidying and polishing, and included a notify-send option for the notification as well. There is a minimum value of 1 sec for the entry box, since a val of zero makes no sense.

I added it as --alarm fail-safe if you don't mind?

Loud thinkering

Not sure if its the correct fail-safe behavior thought.

if [[ -f "$alarmSample" ]] && command -v mpv >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then
    mpv --no-resume-playback --no-video "$alarmSample"
else    
    alarmfailsafe
fi

because it appears I don't want

mpv --no-resume-playback --no-video "$alarmSample" ||  alarmfailsafe

since that will jump to alarmfailsafe in case of users 'killall mpv'. Unless I invent some sort of trap

trap 'kill $(jobs -p) >/dev/null 2>&1' EXIT

and user may now 'killall beepmein' to stop mpv playback and/or internal beep-ing.

end loud thinkering, and uploaded the latest version with 'trap' inside.

/usr/bin/play -n synth pl G2 pl B2 pl D3 pl G3 pl D4 pl G4 \
delay 0 .05 .1 .15 .2 .25 remix - fade 0 4 .1 norm -1 > /dev/null 2>&1

Re: Alarm clock scripts

This all looks very promising!

One request: can we drop the mpv dependency? It's not in BL by default. Just to play a sound file, any media player would work, no? So substitute bl-media-player?

OTOH if you don't want a big bloated GUI coming up just to play a sound, then I think aplay should be on every system, and can play a wav file. If the sound's not too long - or can be repeated - then the file won't be that big.

Re: Alarm clock scripts

@johnraff,

From what I gathered so far (and i can only talk about my script)

- 'at' event seems to fail when x stuff (gui) is supposed to launch (hopefully alarmfailsafe fixes that to some amount), so if bl-media-player presents a gui, i guess that will fail as well
- aplay will happily play mp3 file as well (as some sort of white noise)
- I guess the chain could be mpv || cvlc || someFailSafe internal beep

I've just tried, and the script as-is doesn't show a gui with mpv - the sound just plays.

No gui with...

mpv "$SOUND"

But using bl-media-player (which for me links to bl-mpv) it does. Is that because it has --profile= bl-pseudo-gui?

And aplay doesn't play all formats sad

EDIT: The YAD file dialog can have filters to only display certain filetypes. Maybe that can be used so that only aplay-compatible soundfiles are used?
