[Plugin] EmailNotify - Send email when bot freeze from "Closing error dialog" message

[jenovachild]

Hey all.

Just wrote up a quick plugin that will send an email to your email account if the bot gets stuck so you can still kind of AFK. (I receive the email to my phone, and then just need to fix the bot)

This plugin requires that you have a gmail email account - easy to make if you don't have one already.


Basic Usage

Before using the plugin you will need to configure it to your email settings in the plugin file. Simply open EmailNotify.cs file and change the following lines of code (you will find them near the top of the file):

public string to = "[email protected]";
public string from = "[email protected]";
public string password = "your email password";

When you enable the plugin on demonbuddy, you should receive a test email telling you that the plugin was enabled. If you do not receive this message, then there is something wrong with your email settings.

NOTE:

This plugin is only sending an email when the error "Closing error dialog" prevents the bot from resuming another game!

To send an email you need an account to send it from.

It's a .cs file, look at it and see there is nothing nefarious going on.

exactly you make a BOt email account on gmail just for the bot. you put that info into the bot. Then you put in the info of the email account you want the bots email to send to.

Just make a new gmail then and use it for only this plugin (if you're so skeptical about it.

You can also use this to send SMS text messages to your phone when it freezes btw. Just find out your phones sms number it would be something like [email protected]

would you explain how this thing works?
especially this line

Logging.OnLogMessage += new Logging.LogMessageDelegate(Logging_OnLogMessage);

I would love something like this if it checks for e.g. "no gold collected for 3 minutes" or something like that, since there are quite a few different errors my bot can get stuck on.

I will work on updating this plugin to include a bunch of things that you can send notifications on (ie. gold collecting drops below x, number of games per min drops below x, etc..)

It's actually sending using the gmail smtp server which can't be used without a valid gmail account.

This is just capturing the event where a log message is being written by Demonbuddy or any plugin.
