how do I make the phone vibrate from a shell script?

i used dbus-monitor and didn't see any dbus message emitted when the phone vibrates. any idea?

Comments

I wrote a simple command-line that just dlopens libvibrator, initializes, and does the vibrator_on thing.

i ended up writing my own console app to do this.

Care to share the beef of it? :) Was it some dbus-send or something else?

sure. i used the code in https://github.com/nemomobile/qt-mobility-haptics-ffmemless i also contacted the contributor from jolla mobile for that component (Chris Adams) and he provided some pointers too.
