4.2.3 Example 3 – FTP and E-mail on Event
This script will upload 2 pre-alarm and 2 post-alarm images via FTP and also send an e-mail as
notification of the event. In addition to the parameters in example 1, the following parameters are
added:
<?
$smtp_server = "mail.somewhere.com";// The server to use as mail server
$subject = "'Alarm trigged'"; // The subject to use in the mail
$from = "[e-mail]"; // The specified sender
$reply = " [e-mail] ";// The specified recipient
$cc = " [e-mail] "; // The specified recipient of a
//copy of this mail
$body = "/tmp/var/log/messages"; // The body to insert into the
// mail. Note that this must be
//specified and point to a valid
//file
$to = " [e-mail] "; // The specified recipient
The script itself is identical to example 1, except for the extra lines shown below.
for($c=0;$c<(strlen($sources));$c++)
{
$command="bufferd -stop -buffername
".$buffer_prefix.substr($sources,$c,1);
system($command);
}
//This is where the code specific to Example 2 starts.
$command = "smtpclient";
$command .=" -L -S ".$smtp_server;
$command .=" -s ".$subject;
$command .=" -f ".$from;
$command .=" -r ".$reply;
$command .=" -c ".$cc;
$command .=" -b ".$body;
$command .=" ".$to;
exec($command);
//This is where the code specific to Example 2 ends.
error_reporting(0);
………………the rest of the script as for example 1.
