Alarm Clock Sync from phone to PC?

[StgRawrface]

So I was wondering how- if at all- it would be possible to set my phone alarm, and have it sync to my computer via internet somehow, and then when the alarm goes off, my computer wakes me up, plays music, tells me notification count, ect.

Hey,

I'm actually trying to do something like this myself, but I have not started with it yet so not sure if I'll be able to do it.

However, I think the easiest way is to make a web page and use the web server plugin to control Eventghost and stuff and have a alarm-clock there. And you can visit this web page from your phone, tablet or PC and set the alarm clock from there.

Anyway, what you want to do should be doable, but would require scripting I think.

See, after thinking about it I decided to use tasker to send a push to my computer from my phone when an alarm started, and have the push start something on my computer with an alarm sound, and then when the alarm is over, have it send another push that would make my computer tell me the weather, ect.

That sounds great - I'll look into that myself!

The only problem I have found is that I can't get suntracker plugin to allow me to just hear the weather. I may be using it wrong, or not, as I only found out about sun tracker yesterday and need to learn how the variables and such work

I wrote some simple scripts earlier for this purpose, maybe that could be useful. Obviously you need to add both the Speech and the SunTracker plugin to your configuration.

Code: Select all

condition = eg.plugins.Suntracker.GetCurrentCondition()
weather = 'The current weather is '+condition['text']
temp = 'The temperature is '+condition['temp']+' degrees'  

eg.plugins.Speech.TextToSpeech(u'Microsoft Anna - English (United States)', 0, weather, 10, 100)
eg.plugins.Speech.TextToSpeech(u'Microsoft Anna - English (United States)', 0, temp, 0, 100)

Code: Select all

m = eg.plugins.Suntracker.GetForecasts()
today = m[0]
tomorrow = m[1]

weather_today = 'The forecast for today is '+today['text']+'. High temperature at '+today['high']+' and low at '+today['low']
weather_tomorrow = 'The forecast for tomorrow is '+tomorrow['text']+'. High temperature at '+tomorrow['high']+' and low at '+tomorrow['low']

eg.plugins.Speech.TextToSpeech(u'Microsoft Anna - English (United States)', 0, weather_today, 0, 100)
eg.plugins.Speech.TextToSpeech(u'Microsoft Anna - English (United States)', 0, weather_tomorrow, 0, 100)

How do I use this? Lol forgive me for not knowing how to add scripts and such.

1) Create a Macro with a Python script

2) Copy & Paste from my samples

3) Test run the Macro

3) Add the event to the Macro that is suppose to start the execution

Just what I needed thank you so much! I didn't know really how to use variables like this!
