kimsufi-alert
=============

Kimsufi alert will send you an email or SMS when an OVH kimsufi server is available for purchase.

## node.js (required)

#mac
brew install node

Other OS (windows, linux) should install from source found at http://nodejs.org

## install

git clone [email protected]:chovy/kimsufi-alert.git
cd kimsufi-alert
npm install

# add a cronjob to periodically check
crontab -e

# add this line (runs every 5 minutes)
*/5 * * * * /usr/local/bin/node ~/path/to/kimsufi-alert/index.js

## configure

Create a custom config file and edit as desired:

cp config.sample.json config.json

Be sure to update with your real smtp and sms settings. Either notification service can be disabled.

You can also remove/add your desired packages and zones to monitor in your custom config file (see list below).

The host and port are hardcoded (not read from `process.env`).
The other SMS details and SMTP credentials are taken from the environment (do not hardcode them in the config file).

You can change the name of the `ENV` variable, but the defaults should be fine.

"env": {
"smtp": {
"host": "smtp.gmail.com", //hardcoded
"port": 465, //hardcoded
"user": "SMTP_USER", //read from process.env.SMTP_USER
"pass": "SMTP_PASS" //read from process.env.SMTP_PASS
},
"sms": {
"sid": "TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID", //read from process.env.TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID
"auth": "TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN" //read from process.env.TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN
}
},

If you're not sure what your SMTP settings are, you can find the common providers here:

https://github.com/andris9/nodemailer-wellknown/blob/master/services.json

Set your SMTP user and password environment variables to receive email notifications:

# in ~/.bashrc
export [email protected]
export SMTP_PASS=xyz
. ~/.bashrc

# from command line execution (ie: crontab)
[email protected] SMTP_PASS=xyz /usr/local/bin/node ~/path/to/kimsufi-alert/index.js

Set your SMS Twilio provider environment variables to receive sms notifications:

# in ~/.bashrc
export TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID=aaa
export TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN=bbb

# from command line execution (ie: crontab)
TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID=aaa TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN=bbb /usr/local/bin/node ~/path/to/kimsufi-alert/index.js

Twilio is the only SMS provider supported, they will give you a SEND FROM phone number, and you can then send to any phone number once you sign up.

## running

Best from a cronjob on periodic intervals:

cd kimsufi-alert

# edit config.json first (copied from config.sample.json)

./index.js

# ignore last run and force it to send a notification (good for testing)
./index.js --force

# from crontab (must run node explicitly)
crontab -e
*/5 * * * * [email protected] SMTP_PASS=xyz TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID=aaa TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN=bbb /usr/local/bin/node /path/to/kimsufi-alert/index.js

Be default, `kimsufi-alert` will only send a notification if the results are different than the last run.
This avoids getting spammed with email and sms every 5 minutes.
