Alarm clock scripts

^Well that depends from the chemical composition of the water, temerature, volume of the pot, barometric pressure, density of the spaghetti...
No, I'm pretty sure they boil them in the microwave oven. For science... :-)
Time is relative, for someone hungry waiting for spaghetti to boil - it takes too long, for someone who had a snack when no one was watching those 12 minutes are a blink of an eye.

New script with at command.

You can choose between running the file in mpv or a custom command.
If you type in custom command, don't use "@" character. This is the limitation.
Custom command can be firefox "www.youtube.com" for example.
Leave the custom blank for mpv.
Ticking "Loop forever" overides "repeat".
Job can be listed and removed via "List at Job" button.

@misko, nice, some thoughts (I build latest yad)
- position 'Repeat' and 'Loop forever' under 'Select a file to play' so it is clear this is related to sound and not repeating alarm every day (or something)
- Select a file to play' doesn't do anything for me, I get file dialog after clicking 'Set Alarm!'
- 'At Job List' is showing two alarms set at same time, but when running atq from cli there is only single event
- Missing delete event functionality?

edit: I wonder if analog picker like
https://weareoutman.github.io/clockpicker/ or
https://github.com/luncheon/clocklet
could be implemented?

edit2: I have repacked some css/html/js/svg clock for testing purposes and it works (but don't feel brave enough for js->yad interface as it would be needed for picker).

It uses some libraries, you can see them in assets folder JQuery Bootstrap and html5shiv.
Some experimentation.
Unpacked it to Documents and created a file "yad.html" in that directory.
And put next inside:

Once the time is set, click "Done" and it writes out in terminal.

^Nice, so this should basically echo js console.log back to terminal/stdsomething?
(Can't make it work for some reason (./openwithyad), not getting anything back to term).

Yes, Developer Console thing that every web browser has.

Your script is working here.

Let's try without the line buffering.
Needed line buffering for a different method.
This one is simpler.

#!/bin/bash

actual_path=$(readlink -f "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")
script_dir=$(dirname "$actual_path")

cd "$script_dir" || exit

yad --title="when" --uri="yad.html" --html --width=800 --height=600 --no-buttons 2>&1 \
| while read -r stuff
do
    [ "$stuff" == ""  ] && continue
    echo "$stuff"
done

Downloaded and unpacked, opened the terminal in the dir containing yad.html and then ./openwithyad

What yad version do you have?
yad --version
0.41.0 (GTK+ 2.24.25)

brontosaurusrex · 2020-01-28 22:59:06

yad --version
5.0 (GTK+ 3.24.5

But i build this, since Debian Buster is not having webkit enabled by default as it seems? The nonbufered version not working either. Must be a custom yad issue...

Could be a bug somewhere.

console-test.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
  $("button").click(function(){
    console.log("Hello!");
  });
});
</script>
</head>
<body>

<button>Write Hello to console</button>

</body>
</html>

In terminal:

cat console-test.html | yad --html --height=400 --width=500

If that doesn't work, then yad probably has a bug.

brontosaurusrex · 2020-01-29 15:59:37

It doesn't work.

misko_2083 · 2020-01-29 18:01:52

It's definitely working here, and writing "Hello!" in the terminal.
Can I suggest a bug report and maybe include this short example?

Possible alternative to 'at' for those who can live with systemd is 'systemd-run'.
The man page is not so easy to understand, but eg this:
https://www.linux-magazine.com/Issues/2 … eztoc0_0_3
Web-searching might bring up more stuff.
Anyway this worked:

systemd-run --user --on-active=1m -E DISPLAY=:0.0 /home/john/bin/beepmein --reaction test

Although the --on-active time seemed a bit slack. I haven't worked on this at all though...

Hi. I'm the Lead for the Fluxbox version of MX Linux, and wanted to tell the Community how much we liked and appreciated the timer posted by @damo at the beginning of this thread and developed further by contributions from @misko_2083 and others.

We have just finished developing it further and it now forms part of our optional mxfb-goodies (https://github.com/MX-Linux/mxfb-goodies). I believe that with minor changes to icon and alarm sound this will work for you, so am posting the new script in case you are interested. BTW: the localization for that is in progress ATM and should be up within a week when we release the new package.

Welcome Jerry.
You blew my cover when you finally asked for that Russian translation, ha, ha. :-)
You thought I'm Russian because of the Cyrillic word in my yt chanel.
"Do you want me to write your name in Russian?" you asked, and I went along with it.
Technically, I never said I'm Russian and you never asked me that.
I only said that I don't want my name in Russian and inserted a few спасибо here and there.
My joke could have lasted a little longer... I was just planing to use word Vodka instead of the word Cool. :-D
I know only few words in Russian and quite a few stereotypes from the Hollywood films I could have used.
Cyrillic is used officialy in a dozen of countries and even more languages, 40 or more if I remember.

But enough of this welcoming to the forum and let's get to the script.
There is a number of improvements in your script.
I really like what Fredx181, Vovchik and others did with the script on the puppy linux (murga linux) forums.
The forum maintainer John Murga died and the forum went offline for a few months.
However, the forum was restored by the community and it was archived.
Somewhere in the Yad thread there is an alarm script with a better UI.
I think they even inserted a custom font into that script.
Oh, here it is http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto … &start=825

Glad to *see* you again, misko! Thanks for the reference--I wasn't aware of that version and will take a look the next time the mood hits me to look at this.

I should point out for everybody here that misko helped us greatly in our effort to resuscitate and rework iDesk and its GUI, which now functions well and is much more accessible to regular users.

Well the choice was between that and solving sudoku puzzles. :-D
Ever since the lockdown sudoku seems more attractive.
