rt-email-dashboards(8)
NAME
rt-email-dashboards - Send email dashboards
SYNOPSIS
/opt/rt3/local/sbin/rt-email-dashboards [options]
DESCRIPTION
This tool will send users email based on how they have subscribed to
dashboards. A dashboard is a set of saved searches, the subscription
controls how often that dashboard is sent and how it's displayed.
Each subscription has an hour, and possibly day of week or day of
month. These are taken to be in the user's timezone if available, UTC
otherwise.
SETUP
- You'll need to have cron run this script every hour. Here's an example
crontab entry to do this.
- 0 * * * * /usr/bin/perl /opt/rt3/local/sbin/rt-email-dashboards
- This will run the script every hour on the hour. This may need some
further tweaking to be run as the correct user.
OPTIONS
This tool supports a few options. Most are for debugging.
--help Display this documentation
- --dryrun
- Figure out which dashboards would be sent, but don't actually
generate them - --epoch SECONDS
- Instead of using the current time to figure out which
dashboards should be sent, use SECONDS (usually since midnight Jan 1st, 1970, so 1192216018 would be Oct 12 19:06:58 GMT
2007). - --verbose
- Print out some tracing information (such as which dashboards
are being generated and sent out) - --debug Print out more tracing information (such as each user and
- subscription that is being considered)
- --all Disable checking of whether each subscription should be sent
- right now (should only be used with --dryrun)
