Extended mode with bash script

[x09]

Hi,

i tried use scriptable-notifications with bash ;)

• extended mode
• connectionless

#!/bin/bash 

# read stdin from stdin (skip first 4 bytes)
readarray -t meta < <( tail -c+5  | jq '.message.author, .message.subject, .message.folder.name, .message.read'|  sed -r "s/\"|<|>//g")

from=${meta[0]}
subject=${meta[1]}
folder=${meta[2]}
readed=${meta[3]}

# skip if already readed
if [[ "xxx$readed" == "xxxtrue" ]]; then
        exit;
fi

        msg="${folder}\nFrom: ${from}\nSubject: ${subject}"
#send to tg
        tgsend -t 'mytoken' --chatId='mychatid' -m "$msg"
    

i see few procceses like this

But if start manually, all work fine

[anton@dell thunderbid-notify]$ cat /tmp/tb-notify-Lyyod | /home/anton/bin/thunderbid-notify/notify.sh

What i can do wrong?

p.s. After close thunderbird all messages will be sent to tg.

Hi,

To be honest, this is probably above my pay grade, but if it helps:

1. Have you read this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/24777120/843699

2. Maybe your bash script doesn't close the connection properly, such as: https://github.com/electrotype/thunderbird-addon-scriptable-notifications/blob/main/scriptExamples/simpleMode/linux-simple/script.sh#L52-L55

But I'll let more competent people answer you, if they can. Good luck!
