Dashing Plex widgets from local scheduled job
A Dashing widget for displaying the number of unplayed films, home videos and TV shows on a Plex media server.
See a live demo here.
Due to the fact that I didn't want to expose my Plex server to outside my network, I decided to run the script on a personal machine at home and push the data to my Dashing application.
A Dashing widget for displaying the number of websites down according to StatusCake.

Setup the following environment variables:
A Dashing widget for displaying the number of unplayed PocketCasts podcasts in an account.
See a live demo here.
Due to the fact that PocketCasts does not, at current time of writing, have a public API, I wrote some code to scrape the data off their webpage. Due to extensive use of JavaScript on the PocketCasts webplayer, I chose an approach using Watir that uses a browser's webdriver. This proved tricky to test on Heroku at the time so I decided to run the script on a personal machine at home and push the data to my Dashing application.
