This client handles calendar services as a sensor. For this, reminders in this calendar are used to trigger sensor alerts. Every calendar service that gives the option to retrieve the calendar data as .ics file via a URL can be used with this sensor client. For example, you can combine this sensor client with your Google calendar to generate sensor alerts every time a reminder is triggered. These sensor alerts can then be instrumented by AlertR to perform a certain task (e.g., display a message on your Kodi media center setup). Furthermore, this allows you to generate a schedule in your calendar which then trigger certain tasks in your AlertR system.

To use this client you have to configure it first. A commented configuration template file is located inside the "config" folder. A init.d example file for Debian systems is located inside the "init.d_example" folder if you want to start the client with the start of the host computer.

If you need a more detailed description of how to set up an AlertR system, please refer to the wiki.
