qubes-callbackd

Simple daemon to react to Qubes OS events (VM started etc.) with configurable commands.

Installation

1. Clone this repository and copy it to a directory of your liking in dom0, let's assume /usr/share/qubes-callbackd.
2. (Optional): To identify the event that you want to execute a callback command on, you can observe the events that Qubes OS generates with the default callbackd.json configuration. Just execute /usr/share/qubes-callbackd/callbackd.py and watch the events whilst using Qubes OS.
3. Configure /usr/share/qubes-callbackd/callbackd.json according to your needs. Each entry must map an event name to a command, binary or script to execute. The special event name * can be used to handle all events.
4. Use systemd or some other way to start /usr/share/qubes-callbackd/callbackd.py on boot. An exemplary systemd config is included in this repository.

Uninstall

Just remove the directory created during the installation.
