This has been my side project for the last few months. I'm very interested in your feedback!

Awesome. Thanks so much for releasing the source; this looks like an extremely significant contribution. Kudos!

This is awesome! We were just talking about building a desktop IFTTT. Can't wait to play with this tonight and learn to make agents.

  Please let me know if you have questions. I'm planning to make a screencast tutorial on how to make and link Agents.

  I've got a Windows desktop product that does something similar for file activity. The plan is to expand the triggers out to other areas http://www.folderagent.com http://www.folderagent.com

I've been building something similar in Erlang/Elixir (OTP's a very good match for an event-driven system which connects a series of inputs to outputs), but never quite managed to get it integrated beyond a few minor inputs/outputs (the fact Erlang is less popular makes finding decent OAuth libraries difficult, for instance). The web interface you've made in particular is impressive; so far my "pipes" are just more scripts. Well done on this, I'm looking forward to playing with it tonight.

  Seeing a Haskell project on github (https://github.com/frio/ifrit https://github.com/frio/ifrit) that sounds similar under your handle- post the Elixir one! Would love to see some Elixir code in such great project area, whatever the state!!

    Heh, I'd forgotten about that one :D. I've had the idea kicking around for a long time, and have spiked it in a few different languages (the Haskell version was mainly to try out FRP and reactive-banana; I've got the furthest on a Python one that hinges around agents tied to RabbitMQ as my current "production" deployment). I'll try and get the Elixir stuff cleaned up and published over the next week :). The only source I've implemented so far is inotify (for eventing off Dropbox, so I can rebuild my blog); so far I've spent most of my time digging into the vagaries of the OTP and Erlang as a platform, rather than implementing.

      Would you care to open the Python implementation? (and thx for open sourcing the Ruby one)

        frio is not op

        It's no more than a wrapper around Kombu; it shouldn't be hard to get one going yourself :). It's far from the level of quality of the OP's product.

Awesome project! IFTTT should really be part of every service that has a little bit of interactivity, even at a corner. Too bad I don't know ruby. Please give us updates on your experience as you use it as well.

thanks for sharing, looks useful. i'll have to play with it, i have plenty of uses.
