Sound alarm when code finishes


On Windows

import winsoundduration = 1000  # millisecondsfreq = 440  # Hzwinsound.Beep(freq, duration)

Where freq is the frequency in Hz and the duration is in milliseconds.

On Linux and Mac

import osduration = 1  # secondsfreq = 440  # Hzos.system('play -nq -t alsa synth {} sine {}'.format(duration, freq))

In order to use this example, you must install sox.

On Debian / Ubuntu / Linux Mint, run this in your terminal:

sudo apt install sox

On Mac, run this in your terminal (using macports):

sudo port install sox

Speech on Mac

import osos.system('say "your program has finished"')

Speech on Linux

import osos.system('spd-say "your program has finished"')

You need to install the speech-dispatcher package in Ubuntu (or the corresponding package on other distributions):

sudo apt install speech-dispatcher


print('\007')

Plays the bell sound on Linux. Plays the error sound on Windows 10.


This one seems to work on both Windows and Linux* (from this question):

def beep():    print("\a")beep()

In Windows, can put at the end:

import winsoundwinsound.Beep(500, 1000)where 500 is the frequency in Herz      1000 is the duration in miliseconds

To work on Linux, you may need to do the following (from QO's comment):

  • in a terminal, type 'cd /etc/modprobe.d' then 'gksudo gedit blacklist.conf'
  • comment the line that says 'blacklist pcspkr', then reboot
  • check also that the terminal preferences has the 'Terminal Bell' checked.
