Is there a way to make zsh run a command after REPORTTIME?
If a process takes greater than REPORTTIME, zsh prints the time when it finishes. Is there a way to make it run a custom command in addition to this?(I would like to use notify send to let me know the process finished executing)
I just had the same thought. Did a quick google and found this; I've adapted it a bit. Shove this into your zshrc:
if [[ -x `which notify-send` ]]; then
notify-preexec-hook() {
zsh_notifier_cmd="$1"
zsh_notifier_time="`date +%s`"
}
notify-precmd-hook() {
local time_taken
if [[ "${zsh_notifier_cmd}" != "" ]]; then
time_taken=$(( `date +%s` - ${zsh_notifier_time} ))
if (( $time_taken > $REPORTTIME )); then
notify-send "task finished" \
"'$zsh_notifier_cmd' exited after $time_taken seconds"
fi
fi
zsh_notifier_cmd=
}
fi
[[ -z $preexec_functions ]] && preexec_functions=()
preexec_functions=($preexec_functions notify-preexec-hook)
[[ -z $precmd_functions ]] && precmd_functions=()
precmd_functions=($precmd_functions notify-precmd-hook)
I'm rather happy with it! :)
