How to make a notification when terminal process is complete

notif-me.md

I have started a long process through a terminal. Is it possible to make the Ubuntu terminal make a sound once the process is complete? This way, I don’t need to keep checking, but will instead be notified through a sound or another notification.

You can use this some alternatives;

$ your-bash-command && aplay /path/to/sound.wav  # can also with *.ogg file.

$ your-bash-command && paplay /path/to/sound.ogg  # can also with *.wav file.

$ your-bash-command; spd-say "done"

$ your-bash-command && notify-send "done"  # without sound
$ your-bash-command && notify-send "Process completed" "Come back to the terminal, the task is over"

---

And this script below is modification of that commands above.

1. Create the notif-me.sh file;

#!/bin/bash

notify-send "Process completed" "Come back to the terminal, the task is over"
spd-say "My lord, your process hasbeen complete."

2. Make it callable in /bin

sudo cp notif-me.sh /bin/notif-me;

3. Use it;

$ your-bash-command; notif-me

# or 

$ your-bash-command && notif-me
