It is possible to set an alarm, which will be shown in the alarm window. When
the alarm expires, the phone wakes up if it is suspended, and zavai vibrates,
turns on baclight, shows a big ACK button and flashes the AUX led for 30
- seconds.
+ seconds. It also plays some music.
You can use the big button on screen or the AUX button to acknowledge the
alarm and stop all the attention-seeking activities.
- When I'll implement some audio playing infrastructure, I'll implement playing
- an audio file as well.
+ If you want to change the alarm ringtone, you can set:
+ ringtone_alarm = "file:///some/where/file.ext"
+ in ~/.zavai/config; gstreamer is used, so mostly any audio file format will
+ work. I'm not sure what will happen if you choose a video format: that might
+ work as well.
Alarms (acknowledged or not) are logged in "~/.zavai/log-alarm/". Still
missing, howerver, is a way to show that an alarm rang and noone noticed.

* Features to add:
+ - if GPS time is more than 1 minute and less than 1 hour different than the
+ system time, automatically sync it
+ if GPS time is more than 1 hour different than the system time, show a
+ "SYNC" button that will sync it if pressed
- log
- write data to disk as log happens (to have at least partial logs if power
is cut)
- more detailed GPX data (dop, elev..)
- message (structured) (json?)
+ - flash aux when there are unacknowledged log entries
- turn on/off gsm
+ start frameworkd as a subprocess, configured to only do phone
+ go through the dbus motions of turning on this and that, and entering PIN
hardcoded in zavai config
+ GSM status on main screen (with messages while coming online, and
operator, power and so on)
- - log and refuse incoming calls and messages
+ + log but don't pick up incoming calls
+ - log incoming messages
+ (first as a standalone app quick to compile)

+ socat FILE:/dev/ttySAC0 TCP-LISTEN:12345,bind=192.168.0.202
+ socat TCP:192.168.0.202:12345 PTY,link=/tmp/gps,raw,echo=0
- alarm
+ play sound at alarm trigger
- leave expired alarm on screen until acknowledged
- audio notes
- record audio notes, logging start and stop so it gets an associated GPX
- shortcut icon in main screen
- - check gobject introspection and dynamic loading
- - there could be a basic loader core that just dynamically loads bits as
- available/needed. Only the battery icon and calendar can be loaded on a
- laptop, while on the moko one can also load the power menu.
- Different bits can effectively work as plugins, to be there or not.
- Alternative plugins can be loaded based on different technologies, too (a
- gpsd satellite monitor, or a fso satellite monitor).
- zavai does not look good in landscape mode
- replace menus with a widget taking a list of actions, which then lays
them out according to the screen size
- ical on libical-dev
- vcard+index file
- lua functions to read things
- - zavai-calendar as a separate app
- zavai-contacts as a separate app
- calendar
- next30: don't update if not shown currently on the notebook
