I'm trying to get my callerid script to send a notification to my boxee box connected tv. I've got the script working using mgetty and notify-send on a couple of my computers.
here is my cidscript.sh which gets triggered by mgetty
#!/bin/sh
# send message to computer
ssh -o ConnectTimeout=10 mrplow@192.168.1.10 "DISPLAY=:0 notify-send 'Phone call from... $CALLER_NAME $CALLER_ID'" &
sleep 0.2
ssh -o ConnectTimeout=10 christine@192.168.1.3 "DISPLAY=:0 notify-send 'Phone call from... $CALLER_NAME $CALLER_ID'" &
sleep 0.2
ssh -o ConnectTimeout=10 mrplow@192.168.1.120 "DISPLAY=:0 notify-send 'Phone call from... $CALLER_NAME $CALLER_ID'" &
sleep 0.2
su mrplow -c "DISPLAY=:0.0 notify-send 'Phone call from... $CALLER_NAME $CALLER_ID'" &
sleep 5
# update logs
echo `date +"%F %a %r"`"|$CALLER_ID|$CALLER_NAME" >> /home/mrplow/answering_machine/logs/incoming-calls.log
scp -o ConnectTimeout=10 /home/mrplow/answering_machine/logs/incoming-calls.log christine@192.168.1.3:/home/christine/Desktop/incoming-calls.log
sleep 0.2
exit 1
I think json rpc is going to be the only way to get this to work I've managed to telnet into the boxee box on raw port 9090 then paired my device
so the script will need to send the connect command
{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Device.Connect", "params":{"deviceid": "############"}, "id": 1}
then the actual notification
{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "GUI.NotificationShow", "params":{"msg" : "Phone call from... $CALLER_NAME $CALLER_ID"}, "id": 1}
I tried this to no avail
curl -d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Device.Connect", "params":{"deviceid": "00112fa696c9"}, "id": 1}\
{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "GUI.NotificationShow", "params":{"msg" : "test"}, "id": 1}' -i 192.168.1.6 9090
