**Real time alert template.**
Description
===========
This module executes custom scripts upon arrival of objects or updates.
It provides as template for custom modification and is not a replacement for :ref:`scvoice`.
There are four possible trigger mechanisms for calling scripts:
* Event creation/update,
* Amplitude creation,
* Origin creation (with status = preliminary),
* Pick creation with filter for phase hint.
.. note ::
People started modifying :ref:`scvoice` to send emails or
other alert messages. Then, the name *scvoice* is then just wrong.
If you want to customize :ref:`scvoice`, use scalert instead.

| :file:`etc/global.cfg`

| :file:`~/.seiscomp/global.cfg`

scalert inherits :ref:`global options<global-configuration>`.
.. confval:: firstNew
Default: ``false``
Type: *boolean*
Treat an event as new event when it is seen the first time.
.. confval:: agencyIDs
Type: *list:string*
List of agency IDs to consider picks and origins. The agency ID
is extracted from the pick or the preferred origin of the event
and compared with the configured IDs.
unset \(\=\): use agencyID defined in global, default
empty list \(\=\"\"\): all agencies are allowed
.. confval:: poi.message
Type: *string*
The default message string for the event\-script is
\"earthquake, [HOURS] hours [MINS] minutes ago, [DESC],
magnitude [MAG], depth [DEP] kilometers\" whereas [DESC]
is the string given in the event.description attribute. This
string can be overwritten using one of the following options.
There are three placeholders that can be used: \@region\@,
\@dist\@ and \@poi\@.
Example: \"\@region\@, \@dist\@ kilometers from \@poi\@
away\".
.. confval:: poi.maxDist
Default: ``20``
Type: *double*
Unit: *deg*
When using the nearest point of interest \(city\) as part of
the message string, specify the maximum distance in degrees
from the event. Any point of interest farther away will be
ignored.
.. confval:: poi.minPopulation
Default: ``50000``
Type: *double*
Minimum population for a city to become a point of interest.
.. confval:: scripts.pick
Type: *string*
The script to be called when a pick
arrives. Network\-, station code, pick publicID are passed
as parameters \$1, \$2, \$3.
.. confval:: scripts.amplitude
Type: *string*
The script to be called when an amplitude
arrives. Network\-, station code, amplitude and amplitude
public ID are passed as parameters \$1, \$2, \$3, \$4.
.. confval:: scripts.alert
Type: *string*
The script to be called when a preliminary
origin arrives. Latitude and longitude are passed as
parameters \$1 and \$2.
.. confval:: scripts.event
Type: *string*
The script to be called when an event has been
declared. The message string, a flag \(1\=new event,
0\=update event\), the EventID, the arrival count and the
magnitude \(optional when set\) are passed as parameters
\$1, \$2, \$3, \$4 and \$5.
.. note::
**constraints.\***
*Constraints for executing scripts*
.. confval:: constraints.phaseHints
Default: ``P,S``
Type: *list::string*
Start the pick script only when the phaseHint of the
received pick has one of the value\(s\).
.. confval:: constraints.phaseStreams
Type: *list::string*
Start the pick script only when the stream \(NET.STA.LOC.CHA\)
of the received pick belongs to the list of stream IDs. If empty,
all picks are accepted, otherwise only the ones whose stream ID
matches one of the entry of this comma separated list. Each entry
must follow the NET.STA.LOC.CHA format, but the special
characters ? \* \| \( \) are also accepeted.
E.g. \"CH.\*,GR.STA??.\*,\*.\*.\*.HH?,\*.\*.\*.??\(Z\|1\)\"
.. confval:: constraints.phaseNumber
Default: ``1``
Type: *int*
Start the pick script only when a minimum number of phases
'phaseNumber' is received within 'phaseInterval'.
.. confval:: constraints.phaseInterval
Default: ``1``
Type: *int*
Unit: *s*
Start the pick script only when a minimum number of phases
'phaseNumber' is received within 'phaseInterval'.
Command-Line Options
====================
.. program:: scalert
:program:`scalert [options]`
Generic
-------
.. option:: -h, --help
Show help message.
.. option:: -V, --version
Show version information.
.. option:: --config-file arg
Use alternative configuration file. When this option is
used the loading of all stages is disabled. Only the
given configuration file is parsed and used. To use
another name for the configuration create a symbolic
link of the application or copy it. Example:
scautopick \-> scautopick2.
.. option:: --plugins arg
Load given plugins.
.. option:: -D, --daemon
Run as daemon. This means the application will fork itself
and doesn't need to be started with \&.
.. option:: --auto-shutdown arg
Enable\/disable self\-shutdown because a master module shutdown.
This only works when messaging is enabled and the master
module sends a shutdown message \(enabled with \-\-start\-stop\-msg
for the master module\).
.. option:: --shutdown-master-module arg
Set the name of the master\-module used for auto\-shutdown.
This is the application name of the module actually
started. If symlinks are used, then it is the name of
the symlinked application.
.. option:: --shutdown-master-username arg
Set the name of the master\-username of the messaging
used for auto\-shutdown. If \"shutdown\-master\-module\" is
given as well, this parameter is ignored.
.. option:: --first-new
Overrides configuration parameter :confval:`firstNew`.
Verbosity
---------
.. option:: --verbosity arg
Verbosity level [0..4]. 0:quiet, 1:error, 2:warning, 3:info,
4:debug.
.. option:: -v, --v
Increase verbosity level \(may be repeated, eg. \-vv\).
.. option:: -q, --quiet
Quiet mode: no logging output.
.. option:: --component arg
Limit the logging to a certain component. This option can
be given more than once.
.. option:: -s, --syslog
Use syslog logging backend. The output usually goes to

Database

List all supported database drivers.
.. option:: -d, --database arg
