WHATEVER

========



that code is a quick and dirty hack to get notifications over ssh from my server

running irssi to my workstation. Aimed to be extended with other notification

systems.

for original notify.pl code :



 * http://lewk.org/log/code/irssi-notify



INSTALL

=======



 * REMOTE SHELL running ERC



TODO by someone who uses ERC!



 * REMOTE SHELL running IRSSI



1/  copy 'notify.pl' to your ~/.irssi/scripts folder

    i.e. scp notify.pl REMOTE:.irssi/scripts

2/  do '/load perl' and '/script load notify.pl' in irssi

    - TIP: Add it to your irssi conf to auto load

3/  Ensure SSH allows remote tunnels - i.e. GatewayPorts yes

4/  configure the 'highlights' in your client. (if you don't know how RTFM !)

    - /hilight -regex bla|bla



 * Local SSH Client



1/  install the local service either by doing: 

    1.1/ pip install notossh

    1.2/ python setup.py install

4/  configure how you want to instance it

    4.1/ configure your ssh client to run it (see below)

    4.2/ make your own script (or launch it manually) : `notossh start`

    4.3/ to end the service run : `notossh stop`

6/  if you don't like it as is... HACK IT !



OPTIONS

=======



    usage: irssi-notify-listener.py [-h] [-f] [-S] [-V] [-H HOST] [-P PORT]

                                    [-G GROWL] [-N NOTIFY]

                                    {start,stop} ...



    IRSSI Notify Listener



    positional arguments:

    {start,stop}

        start               Starts the service

        stop                Stops the service



    optional arguments:

    -h, --help            show this help message and exit

    -f, --foreground      Make the notifications stick

    -S, --sticky          Make the notifications stick

    -V, --verbose         Make the listener verbose

    -H HOST, --host HOST  Host to listen on

    -P PORT, --port PORT  Port to listen on

    -G GROWL, --with-growl GROWL

                            Path to growl executable

    -T NOTIFIER, --with-notifier NOTIFIER

                            Path to terminal-notifier executable

    -N NOTIFY, --with-notify NOTIFY

                            Path to notify executable



CONFIGURATION

=============



add to your .ssh/config those lines, where HOST is the host and port the PORT you want

to connect to :



    Host HOST

    PermitLocalCommand yes

    LocalCommand /path/to/bin/notossh start

    RemoteForward PORT localhost:PORT



NOTIFICATIONS

=============



to change the way notifications behaves, like on Fedora systems, you can change the notification

line to the following, making it transient :



    return [args.notify, '--hint', 'int:transient:1', '-i', 'dialog-information', '-t', '5000', ':'.join(args[1:]), args[0]]



TODO

====



 * enable passing through the arguments after -- to the notification service



LICENCES

========



Since 2010, that code is aimed to be hacked.

Thanks to Charles `doublerebel` Philips, Rui Abreu Ferreira and Cooper Ry Lees for their hacks!



notify.pl is under GPL (because I copy/pasted it from Luke Macken and Paul W. Frields)



everything else is WTFPL (because I don't care what you do with it, but if you don't 

tell me you've improved it it, you're just a moron)



And if you like it, buy me a beer !
