ALERT SCRIPTS

Scripts for sending alerts and notifications.

Notify when finished

When executing long-running commands (such as compiling code or performing backups), it can be useful to receive notifications when these tasks finish.

This allows the user to step away from the terminal, perhaps to grab a coffee.

After sourcing etc/profile.d/fga.sh you can do the following:

$ long-lasting-command
^Z
$ fga
... the command runs.
... a notification is sent.
$

The notification is sent executing the command in the $TIMED_ALERT variable. By default notify-send(1) is used.

Supported shells.

• GNU Bash
• Busybox for Linux and Windows.
• Busybox for Windows (the "Notify when finished" with fga doesn't work, no ^Z available).

Send alerts to your phone.

• Create a "secret" topic in ntfy.sh.
• Set NTFY_TOPIC environment variable, for example in "/etc/profile".
