GCalert -- Inobtrusive lightweight Google Calendar alerter (C) Copyright Andras HORVATH, 2009 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright 2009 Andras Horvath (andras.horvath nospamat gmailcom) This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details. You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This code will access all your Google calendars and display alarms via libnotify for whenever you have alarms set. Libnotify alarms are, usually, little windows that _receive no focus_ (thus do not take keyboard input away from other applications) yet are clearly visible even on a cluttered desktop. Requirements (in debian-style package names): python-notify python-gdata python-dateutil notification-daemon SECURITY NOTE: this code uses python-gdata. The current Ubuntu version of that library, 1.2.4, will do the authentication in an encrypted fashion but the actual calendars will be transmitted in cleartext. If this is not what you want but instead prefer the whole exchange to occur over an encrypted channel, consider applying the patch found at http://groups.google.com/group/gdata-python-client-library-contributors/browse_thread/thread/48254170a6f6818a?pli=1 Also: getting 'thrown out' from Google Services is apparently normal, GCalert will reconnect automatically.
