Show HN: Pipe, library to run ifttt-like alerts locally

Cool! If I remember, you're the same guy who did http://apify.heroku.com/resources, yes? Does this have a lot of shared code with scrapify?

This is completely independent. It'll work for any json service.

Neat project. If I could make a recommendation, I would suggest dropping the capital I. Its not used consistently; git repo versus title of this post versus command name.

I looks like pipe character in github. But i had to drop it here for readability.

Looks good but it shares its name with a popular pseudo-tool; may I suggest WTTT (when this then that)?

Are you referring to Unix Pipe, which inspired Yahoo Pipes, which inspired ifttt and Zapire? (http://nickoneill.com/the-forgotten-yahoo-project-that-inspi...)

There's also a Facebook file-sharing app called Pipe. I guess this project could use a less-overloaded name!

What "pseudo-tool"? And what is a pseudo-tool anyway?

Damn, I was talking to a friend about writing something like this just yesterday!

Good job!

I'd use this! Kudos for implementing it. I look forward to seeing where this goes.

Looks nice - been thinking of something like this for a very lightweight ESB.

Any plans on making this a web service?
