Tinymotd generate a configurable dynamic motd via shell script

• Easy configuration and customisation
• Tiny (<100kb) optimized scripts
• Minimal dependencies
• Many widgets: docker, lxc, apt, pacman, certificates, disks, ...

The automated install use systemd timer or cron and bashrc.
To install this, with root rights:

• Clone the repo
• Install: ./install -u <user>
• Configure layout: vim ./config
• Configure widgets: vim ./widgets/<widget-name>
• Run interactively: ./generate

The script runs:

• every hour for system information (cpu, disks, ...)
• every day for other information (certificates, packages, ...)

To install manually, with root rights:

• Clone the repo
• Configure layout: vim ./config
• Configure widgets: vim ./widgets/<widget-name>
• Run interactively: ./generate
• Generate a static motd file: ./generate > ./data/motd
• Use the jobs scheduler of your choice to regenerate motd (for instance systemd timer or cron)
• Add a print of your motd file at login (for instance in ~/.bashrc)
