# reminders

A periodical reminder program using desktop notifications

## Requirements

* rust

* libnotify

* A desktop notification server

##  Installation

From crates.io:

```bash

cargo install reminders

```

From source, build:

```

cargo build --release

```

Then copy the binary `target/release/reminders` to a place available in your `$PATH` variable.

## Usage

Before the first use you should edit the `ExecStart` line in the

[reminders.service](reminders.service) file provided in this repository.

```

ExecStart=reminders -m MESSAGE -p 300

```

Change the `MESSAGE` with whatever message you want your reminder to show, as

well the `300` to the reminder period you want, given in seconds.

Afterwards you should install/start the `reminders.service` systemd unit,

so that the process actually keeps running in the background.

## TODO

* Configuration file

* Add AUR package

* Handle `systemctl stop`.

* Expose more notification options

## Is it any good?
