shellpomo

This is a BASH script to implement a simple Pomodoro Technique timer. It uses Zenity for the user interface and has sound and visual notifications ( using notify-send )

The repository contains:

shellpomo

The BASH script which does the work.

The following two lines will need to be modified to suit your installation:

SOUND="/usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/message.ogg"
ICON="/home/john/projects/shellpomo/Tomato-icon.png"

( Future updates will try and make the sound less Ubuntu centric. )

shellpomo.desktop

Drag and drop this file to the Unity launcher to add a quick launch icon. Note that you will need to modify the command and icon paths ( right click in File Manager and select "Properties")

Tomato-icon.png

An icon which is used for the Unity lancher and the notifications. This should normally be in the same directory as the BASH script.

Tomato icon obtained from: http://www.iconarchive.com/show/paradise-fruits-icons-by-artbees/Tomato-icon.html

To Do

  1. Add an interrupt/ pause feature for both work and rest periods
  2. Make the sound and visual notifications a bit more configurable
  3. Remember the user settings from run to run
  4. Make the sound a little less Ubuntu centric
