Description-en: runs a command and optionally reports its output by mail
shush was written to be a generic wrapper around cron jobs so that it can be
applied to any command without having to modify it or create a custom wrapper
for it. In a sense, it solves a fairly simple problem, but it also brings some
powerful features making it a useful tool beyond cron jobs.
.
Feature highlights:
.
* Multiple reports (for the output) may be defined
* Decision to send a report (or not) is configurable based on:
- Output content analysis (using regular expressions)
- Command exit code
- Size of output
- Command execution duration
* Support for plain text, enriched text and HTML report formatting.
(The latter two allow rendering part of the output in bold.)
* Various timeout actions such as notification and command termination
* Locking support
* Progress report logging via syslog
* Automatic crontab file updating based on shush's configuration
