General info

This project is a trivial wake on lan node js app server. The desire was to have something small to be used for home automation tasks. Basically a good excuse to play around with js and containers.

A better and bulkier option for a wol server can be found at: wol-server

Setup

To run this project, install it locally using npm:

$ [sudo] npm install [-g] trivial-wol-server
$ cd node_modules/trivial-wol-server

Then any of the following options for starting the app:

$ npm start

or

$ node trivial_wol_server.js

Just in case...

Currently, the only dependency is on the wol module. If for any reason you are unable to satisfy that dependency via npm:

• wake-on-lan

The brains of the operation :)
