Notify Schedule Time Using Python and Notification

Suppose that your exam is knocking at the door. If you set the time in this python programme  and configure perfectly then when you start your computer it remind your exam schedule through notification.

import datetime
import sys
import pynotify

now = datetime.datetime.now().replace(microsecond=0)
then = datetime.datetime(2013,07,14,10,0,0)

diff = then - now

hours = (diff.seconds) / 3600
minutes = (diff.seconds - hours * 3600) / 60
seconds = (diff.seconds  - (hours * 3600 + minutes * 60))


def sendmessage(title, message):
    pynotify.init("image")
    notice = pynotify.Notification(title,message,"/usr/share/icons/gnome/48x48/status/important.png").show()
    return notice
sendmessage("Time remaining to exam","%s days, %s hours, %s minutes and %s seconds."% (diff.days,hours,minutes,seconds))
