Commerce Stock Notifications will modify the add to cart form on out of stock products, allowing users to enter an email address to be notified when the product is back in stock.

Currently there are, to my knowledge, two other sandbox projects that perform similar functions. They are

Commerce Waitlist (https://drupal.org/sandbox/itamar/1772176)
Commerce Stock Notify (https://drupal.org/sandbox/Rajeevkr/2047369)

For the use case I wrote this module for, the Waitlist sandbox would not work as it required users to be logged in, offering no support for anonymous users. It also had a dependency on flags and I was hoping to minimize dependencies.

The Commerce Stock Notify sandbox was the closest to what I needed but it had been silent for about 8 months. Upon looking at the code I found that much of it was very site specific and I wanted to make something that was generic and could be plugged in on any Commerce site. I do want to give a big thanks to Rajeevkr though for the work he did, I used some of it as the starting blocks for this new project.'

This module should be pretty straightforward to install and administer. All of the text used on the notification form are editable on the admin page ( admin/commerce/config/stock-notifications ) and the email that is sent is controlled by a Rules component called 'Send Commerce Stock Notifications'.
