★ vip_alert.rb (wip)

Ruby script that uses twillo to send you a text message when an email from someone important arrives in your gmail inbox. Poor man alternative to Awayfind.

Usable, but still a work in progress.

Installation instructions

  • Checkout the repository in your server
  • Bundle install
  • Edit the config.yaml file and add your twillo info and VIP email address
  • run vip_alert.rb thru a cron job. I have mine set to run every 5 minutes

Requirements

  • Gmail
  • Twillo

Planned features

  • VIP subjects
  • VIP domains
  • Multiple accounts per instance

Contributing to vip_alert

  • Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet
  • Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it
  • Fork the project
  • Start a feature/bugfix branch
  • Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
  • Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
