Break Reminder

This is a simple Python script that sends a desktop notification to remind you to take a break and play some games or relax your mind. The notification appears every hour (3600 seconds).

Prerequisites

Before running the script, you'll need to have Python installed on your system. You can download the latest version of Python from the official website: https://www.python.org/downloads/

Additionally, you'll need to install the plyer library, which is used for generating desktop notifications.

Installation

1. Open your terminal or command prompt.

2. Install the plyer library using pip (Python's package installer):

pip install plyer

If you encounter any issues during the installation process, make sure you have the latest version of pip installed. You can upgrade pip by running:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip

Usage

1. Save the script to a file with a .py extension, e.g., break_reminder.py.

2. Open the script file and modify the app_icon parameter to the path of your desired icon file (optional).

app_icon = "path/to/your/icon.ico"

3. Run the script from the terminal or command prompt:

python break_reminder.py

The script will run indefinitely, displaying a notification every hour to remind you to take a break.

Customization

You can customize the notification by modifying the following parameters in the notification.notify() function:

• title: The title of the notification.
• message: The message body of the notification.
• app_icon: The path to the icon file that will be displayed with the notification.
• timeout: The duration (in seconds) for which the notification will be displayed.

Note

• Make sure to replace "C:/Users/MY PC/OneDrive/Documents/Codes/Python/try.ico" with the actual path to your desired icon file.
• The script will continue to run until you manually stop it (e.g., by closing the terminal or command prompt window).
