Title: Email and sms sender using Claymore's remote manager
Post by: mettalmag on December 13, 2016, 09:24:50 PM
I was unable to manage Remote Manager to send me email or even sms in case of alarm, so after spending some time searching the internet how to make .bat file to send sms and email  I came up with an idea to send sms and email with python script and make but file to run these scripts. It's very helpful for me to manage my rigs even if I'm offline.
First you need to install python 3.5.2 and don't forget to check both boxes:

After fresh installing the python lets configure Twilio account.
Sign up for Twilio account and create API https://www.twilio.com/try-twilio
Code:
Step 1: Create an API Key

First, you need to create an API Key, which contains a secret used to sign Access Tokens. You can create API Keys from the Twilio Console or using the REST API. At the time you create the API Key, you'll be shown the Key's secret. For security, you will only be shown the secret when the key is created. You should store it with the Key's SID in a secure location for the next step.

Step 2: Generate an Access Token

Next, you'll use the the secret of the API Key you created in step 1 to generate an access-token using the Twilio Helper Library. Each token is granted access to specific client features.

then make a .py file and fill it with this(replace _sid and _token to your live _sid and _token and also replace numbers):
Code:
# Download the twilio-python library from http://twilio.com/docs/libraries
from twilio.rest import TwilioRestClient

# Find these values at https://twilio.com/user/account
account_sid = "ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
auth_token = "YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY"
client = TwilioRestClient(account_sid, auth_token)

message = client.messages.create(to="+12316851234", from_="+15555555555",
                                     body="Hello there!")

Then run this in CMD:
Code:
pip install twilio
https://i.imgur.com/7ePDhHs.jpg
Now you can test sms.py file by double clicking on it, after few second you should get sms from Twilio number with your own text.




Configure email sender:
Open CMD and type:
Code:
>python
>>> import smtplib
https://i.imgur.com/Zbxr5rO.jpg

After this replace email accounts in code above and save it as email.py:
Code:
import smtplib
 
server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 587)
server.starttls()
server.login("YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS", "YOUR PASSWORD")
 
msg = "YOUR MESSAGE!"
server.sendmail("YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS", "THE EMAIL ADDRESS TO SEND TO", msg)
server.quit()

If you will using gmail don't forget to allow "less secure apps" to access your account.


After these steps you can create simple .bat file to use in remote manager to run these two python scripts in case of alarm
Code:
@ECHO OFF

start C:\******\gmail.py
start C:\******\sms.py



P.S. I've done these steps and everything is working fine for me, I didn't write neither sms sender script nor email sender one, use them on your discretion.

Great job for sharing this scripts. Anyway I was just looking at Twilio website and can't find any fees/pricing per sms or anything. Can you share that information ?

this is totally free, I'm using it for two month now. As I know if you want to use some kind of special number or clean text that costs min 20$ as I remember (when you enter you own text like: "rig is down" you get sms "Sent from your Twilio trial account - rig is down")

a telegram bot could be a better solution

You can share detailed info instead of posting meaningless posts like this!

Have you done it already ?
can you share how one can do this ?
some kind of tutorial maybe ?
or you are just aware that telegram bot exists and that's it ?
share more info not links

there is a free rig/gpu monitoring tool called fermtools https://github.com/Dimasin/fermtools
it monitors gpus (fans, temps etc), it can reset rigs and it can send emails or messages via telegram bot
if someone could upgrade this tool to monitor miners (like claymore or ccminer or whatever with api) directly, not only gpus

have you tested it ?
It seems very interesting and I'm willing try as soon as I get to my farm, I'll post news after trying this out.
Especially I liked the part were it is possible to see on what slot is GPU connected

I think this is made for miners at the first place since guy who made it accepting ETH donations. What you mentioned, it can't be standalone tool that can connect to any miner (well it can but it's hard to make, if someone do make this it wont be free) but it can be connected to claymore miner same way remote manager is for example.

yes i tested it, it can reset rigs remotely via telegram command, it can show all or some specific parameters like temps by sending commands manually or i can receive statuses if monitoring is enabled
the problem is that there is no complete manual for this tool, only the dev can explain some options
and that slot number info is veeeery cool! :)

that's exactly what I liked most in this, if there would be some nice and clean tutorial I'd be glad to test it, but building from scratch will take huge time I think...

windows binaries can be downloaded from github https://github.com/Dimasin/fermtools/releases

1. create a new telegram bot by using @BotFather bot and sending it /start. follow botfather's steps and get your bot token
2. input your token, bot name, your telegram nick and rig name in fermtools settings
3. add your bot to contact list and send /start. then send for example /all to get all info from your rig
commands are /fgpu, /fmem, /lgpu, /lmem, /tgpu, /fanr, /fanp, /all
/resetoff - turns rig reset  mode off (also turns automatic monitoring messages off, manual commands like /fgpu work)
/reseton - turns rig reset mode on
/resetget - get reset mode status

enable monitoring - tick a specific parameter in settings (first tab)

i hope so :) didn't try to emulate a problem
also the author will work on usb watchdogs support, for example like this one http://open-dev.ru/watchdog (in russian, i didn't find an english page)
