Nannybot is a task managing daemon made using shell scripts, that passes messages to the user via notify-send (with cute waifu faces).
The bot has only been tested using dunst, but should work with any notifcation daemon. For best results, it is suggested to have a notifcation system that allows icons to be displayed, and turned on.
The bot is a project that I spent only 3 days on, and has had minimal testing, so please report bugs if you experience them.
Also if you make your own modules, or characters, feel free to fork
Put the contents of this folder into ~/.config/nannybot
In order to properly use NannyBot, it's highly suggested to map the script summon to a keyboard shortcut, and activate the bot that way. This script has options such as starting and stopping the bot and properly starts/stops all sub-scripts.
For a quick rundown on how Nannybot works, simply run ./helpme in the nannybot directory to have a prompt show up (dmenu required) that will walk you through some of the basics
There are three kinds of notifcations; Notices, Reminders, and Prompts.
Reminders are messages that are sent as specific times, to remind you of things. They are configured under /messages/reminders
Notices are messages that are radomly picked from, and the likelyness of each individual message can be changed. Message display rate is handled by a weighted random system that functions like a lottery, the higher the number, the more "tickets" there are, and the more likely the message is to "win" (be shown)
Prompts are a subset of Notices and Reminders that display a message, but also inquire a responce from the user, and can run commands based on the answer given by the user. To answer the question the user must run the script summon in the home folder of the program. The summon script forwards you to the current_prompt script if it exists, saving you a keybind. (It is highly suggest to bind this to a hotkey, or auto-run the script) Dmenu is required, and I'm not familiar enough with non-twm style shell related programs that accept user input. Reguardless, if you know enough about using these systems, it should be very easy to port these scripts to other user-input programs.
For a more in-depth look at how flexable the messages are, please look at the files the messages are stored in, as they contain all the syntax to add your own messages.
