# notify\_touchy
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Purpose
|
||
|
|
A fork of [i3status-touchy](https://github.com/Bandie/i3status-touchy).
|
||
|
|
A service which checks the return code of a program/script and notifies you if it has a bad return code.
|
||
|
|
In i3status-touchy there will be a file created. This doesn't happen here anymore. Instead it uses libnotify.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installation
|
||
|
|
You need gcc or something similar. There is a *not finished* systemd servicefile included.
|
||
|
|
To compile and install it you may want to do the following within this project directory:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
make
|
||
|
|
sudo make install
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Syntax and i3 status integration
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
notify_touchy ( arguments )
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It checks if a program has a specific return code within some time. If it has a file will be touched. If not it will be erased.
|
||
|
|
The purpose is to integrate it with i3status.
|
||
|

```
