[edit] Project summary
Shepherd is an advanced scheduler that can do a wide variety of tasks depending on a number of triggers.
The project will aim to improve on the capabilities of Shepherd. I plan to add more ways of triggering an action and more actions to be taken when the triggers is meet.
[edit] Progress
I have planned to write a couple of plug-ins for shepherd as well as to get the core and GUI in working order.
| Name | Progress | Status | Category | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WLAN SSID | 95% | Real life testing left | Trigger | Check if a WLAN SSID is nearby |
| Location | 80% | Real life testing left. A gui is needed however the plan is to use the Qt Mobility location packate for that, which is not yet released. | Trigger | Check if the device is in a certain location by using the GPS and Cellular towers |
| Calendar | 95% | Real life testing left | Trigger | Check if certain events are happening |
| Change profile | 95% | Real life testing left | Action | |
| Turn Radio on/off | 95% | Real life testing left | Action | Turn both WLAN and 3G on/off |
| Change Telepathy status | 0% | Have been unsuccessfull in implementing this, might be a bug in TelepathyQt4. | Action | |
| Secure device | 95% | Real life testing left | Action | Lock the device in the same way as the menu option |
| Display a notification | 95% | Real life testing left | Action | Display a notification |
| Sensors - accelerometer, ambient light sensor, orientation, proximity sensor, rotation sensor. | 95% | Real life testing left. | Triggers | Several triggers involving the sensors |
| Sensors (several triggers) - compass, magnetometer, tap sensor | 90% | Untested as I have no device with these sensors. | Triggers | Several triggers involving the sensors. |
| Core | ~50% | Shepherd | Finish the core | |
| GUI | 5% | Shepherd | Finish the GUI |
The part that is missing from most of the plug-ins is to adopt it to the shepherds current API, the actual functionality is already there.
