Drush Notify

This project was previously merged into Drush Core.

Do you use Drush? Do you start long-running commands and completely lose track of when they end? This "command" is for you. This is a Drush command extension that provides new core options that can be used with any other Drush command.

The Future of Drush Notify

This project has been folded into Drush core as of Drush 6. This project will be minimally maintained to support earlier versions of Drush.

Common Usage

Add --notify to trigger a notification center message when your command (properly) completes.

In addition to --notify, you may use --notify-audio and a robotic voice will read the message out. This is useful if you've gone to get coffee while waiting for your site.

Support & Installation

Ubuntu and OSX are supported by default. Other Operating Systems are supported via configuration parameters to specify the command-line tools you want to use for each type of notification.

For OSX, you must install a separate utility for interacting with the notification center.
gem install terminal-notifier

Origins

This project began as an idle example in how you might extend other Drush commands with new functionality using standard elements of the Drush API.
