EyeStrainReminder

Install

A small background tool for reminding the user of the "20-20-20" rule. Uses system notifications and sound cues. Made primarily for GNU/Linux, but should theoretically work with other environments.

First, you might need these packages:

sudo apt-get install python-gobject libnotify-bin python-gst-1.0

Second, install the tool and required Python modules by cloning the repository and running these lines, optionally with the --user flag:

cd EyeStrainReminder
python3 -m pip install .

Launch or set it to run from boot as:

$ eyestrainreminder

Optional parameters can be viewed through "$ eyestrainreminder -h". In short, it's possible to set a custom notification sounds, mute the notification sounds, turn off notifications by default and invert the tray icon colors.

Uninstall

For removal of the software run:

python3 -m pip uninstall EyeStrainReminder
