Action On Ingest Complete

(1/1)

Jeffoliver:
What are the possibilities of of triggering an executable action upon ingest complete, (or failed). Specifically I'd like to see an the option to run an Applescript so as I can send my Mac to sleep once ingest is complete. I predominantly shoot weddings and will usually leave 4 x cards ingesting and go to bed. Invariably the process hasn't completed by the morning due to my mac going to sleep.
It doesn't have to be an Applescript, just something I can create a trigger from. I think this used to be achievable with Growl, but as that hasn't been updated since 2013, I think that's no longer an option.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who would find this useful, other scenarios could be initiate a back up, or start a ftp upload. Ingest is such a key part of PM, it would be so helpful to be able to automate other processes on completion.

Thanks.
