So for sometime now, I've been doing Drupal/PHP development on my local machine. I'm a Mac user, and I use Growl quite a bit to keep aware of whats going on. Honestly at times its probably a productivity killer to know that I have 22 new emails, I was pinged in IRC, and my feeds were just updated, and the latest track in iTunes is something that I probably don't want to hear. So I've been spending some time thinking about how to best put this cool tool to work for me, and I kept coming back to growlnotify, a command line tool to post notifications.
My first though was, how to get this to tail some server logs for me, and how to take care of letting me know when servers had issues. But then I got to thinking that isn't really all that useful. Servers shouldn't go down, and if they do, they should notify me by email (which if I'm at the computer, Growl will pick up) and server logs? I just don't need that. The next logical conclusion was maybe to do some local tasks, like I don't know...say the PHP error log while I"m developing? That might actually be useful when I do something stupid, like get tired and call $node['body'] ( PHP Fatal error: Cannot use object of type stdClass as array).
Anyway, lo and behold, someone else has already done this for me. Check out the snippets here for more info on how to make this work. It's a bit tricky since growl won't send a notify until an end of file is reached, and tail -f just sends newline characters. The solution is to use a small python script to read the stdin, and then conver that into a full growlnotify command, and execute it.
Thanks to this tip I now get notifications like this:
.
You may need to play with your error level to keep from getting splattered with notices, but I find this quite useful (especially for catching notices with Drupal 6).
Re: How to get a pop up notification of a PHP error
Are you still using this or have you refined it? I'd want something that I don't have to execute tail every time I start programming. A process running in the background that can grep realtime for new lines with certain keywords and growl them and add it to my startup items, would be ideal. My current solution has been poor - using Geektool from http://projects.tynsoe.org/en/geektool/ to display the last bit of /var/log/apache2/error_log on my desktop, but that's always covered by programs I'm using.
BTW, comment_notify module would be nice. I'll totally forget I made this post later.
How to get a pop up notification of a PHP error
All these methods are perfectly fine and have their place, but I wanted to tie my websites into the Growl notifier on my Mac. This appeals to me for a couple reason 70-648 braindumps. First, it’s more immediate than email or RSS. My newsreader refreshes every thirty minutes, and my mail client checks every ten. If my database crashes or there’s some other major problem on my site I want to know about it now. On the other hand, Growl notifications are passive 642-691 braindumps. They pop up on my screen, and if the message isn’t important they disappear a few seconds later without me having to intervene. Instant messages are more distracting. They open up a whole new window that I have to switch to and close 352-001 braindumps. With Growl I can quickly glance at the notification and do something about it or keep working at my current task.
