Using herbe in a cronjob

[TheTrveAnthony]

Hi,

I wanna set up a cronjob to let me know when my battery is dying.
So basically I wrote a script that plays a sound and displays a notification with herbe when the battery level is too low. It works fine when I run it from my terminal but cron fails to run herbe.
Adding export DISPLAY=:0 in the script does not make the trick.
The arch wiki also suggests to:

• set up a DBUS variable which obviously won't help
• Use xuserrun but it has systemd as dependency and I intend to run this on void

Is there another global variable I gotta set ? Or is herbe simply not sable in a cronjob ?

Thanks

Same problem. I tried "$doas -u user herbe test" and it works. So why cronie can't start it? I don't understand now, but research continues.

Hey! Found solution in days. Somewhat in my setup cronie's shell missed full path for herbe (with no modifications in Makefile paths), and "display not found". After fix for path this line works for me:

* * * * * env DISPLAY=:0 /usr/local/bin/herbe test

File for local user, so it isn't run from root.
