Hello, I am interested in getting a script written to run under Centos (Linux) which scans an ical file, and at a set time before the scheduled events in the ical file executes a command line command. ical files are written from another software package every 5 minutes. This software must collect files, scan then to find out what calendar events are scheduled, and then 15 minutes (or at a time we choose) before the event execute a command line command that we specify. As an example, the ical file has a calendar event which starts at 7pm. At 6:45pm the system executes a command as root such as "ls" or whatever we choose. There will be around 7 different ical files being updated daily. Each ical file will execute a different command line command. Looking for someone who can assist with this project. I have previously had this system built but unfortunately the developer could not complete it satisfactorily. I will be able to provide their software to assist with your design. Thanks

I'm expert in desktop automation with many completed projects that's why I'm sure you'll be impressed with my work. I can create such program for you in couple of days and I can offer you best price here. The script will read ical file, parse it and execute predefined command for each event which will start in defined time. All configuration will be done through plain text file. All I need to start is your ical sample and milestone payment from you. You'll release it after you check everything on your side so nothing to worry about for you. Thanks. Roman

Hi! I've understood your requirements and can get the work done in under 1 day. Please specify how the ical files should be collected: would it happen over the network or locally? It's not a problem to dl files over the network, just interested.

Hello! It not a difficult task. I wanted to start with example, but in previous project before I created it, employer already choose a worker. Please, pay attention to me. I suggest node.js. Lightweight and flexible solution. I can add a simple web interface if you want. I already know how exactly do it, and I guarantee the successful implementation of the project. Thanks for attention!

Right now i'm working with PHP doing back end/API's using a lot of OOP and packages. As for the first step I would like to discuss some details with you such as: - where will we collect the files? - do you want the command output? - and more... I'm planning to have a config file where you will setup the command to execute for each ical file with the possibility to add as many ical files as you wish with specifying the file path. Planing to using composer. We will need you to add an entry on crontab (or any other ). Plus, i won't accept any money if you're not happy at the end. Thank you for considering my proposal.
