alrm

Description

A WIP alarm program.

Supported platforms:

• Linux
• Windows

Planned platforms:

• Android
• BSD (this actually probably works, but it's untested)

Installation

• git clone https://github.com/Phate6660/alrm && cd alrm
• cargo build --release OR cargo build --release --features=notify

I have split the notification off into a feature, so that way the amount

of dependencies is cut in half for anyone who doesn't even want a notification.

Usage

• TIME = the time in HH:MM format (note that it is 24 hr (00-23))
• FILE = the path to the audio file (flac/wav supported -- none if not wanted)
• MESSAGE = the message to be displayed when the alarm goes off

./target/release/alrm TIME FILE MESSAGE

You may also interact with the alarm while it's running

by sending commands to /tmp/alrm.

For example by doing something like echo "command" > /tmp/alrm.

Commands supported:

• status
• stop

TODO

• Allowing queueing of audio
• Status:

• Current time, alarm set time -- done
• Remaining time

• Named pipe for commanding the program (e.g. status/stop) -- done
• Network support (e.g. file from server or youtube link)
• Supply some audio clips along with the program, such as:

• Annoying shrill alarm tones
• Phone ringing

• Support MP3 and Vorbis (details in comments in source)
