This image provides PWR, a way to wake up machine hosting web services before requesting those services.

You need to run this container on "host" mode for correctly sending the magic packet.

Environnement Variables

SERVER_PORT

The listening port waiting the initial HTTP request

TIMEOUT

Delay before timeout

MAC

The target MAC Address of the target machine

REDIRECT

The redirect URL when machine is awake.

SSL_VERIFY

To accept all ssl certificate without verification set this environment variable to "False". Usefull for self signed certificate - thx sjung87.

docker run -d \
                --name pwr \
                --restart unless-stopped \
                -e TZ=Europe/Paris \
                -e SERVER_PORT=8565 \
                -e TIMEOUT=120 \
                -e MAC=52:54:00:42:35:5C \
                -e REDIRECT=http://your.awaken.service \
                -e SSL_VERIFY=False \
                --network host \

USAGE

As an example:

• the host running this container has ip 192.168.1.40.
• i set 8565 as SERVER_PORT - i set the MAC address of the target machine i want to wake up
• i set the webui of the service this target machine offer when awake. Ex: http://192.168.1.50⁠
• If is set SSL_VERIFY=False there is no verification of https certificate

docker run -d \
                --name pwr \
                --restart unless-stopped \
                -e TZ=Europe/Paris \
                -e SERVER_PORT=8565 \
                -e TIMEOUT=120 \
                -e MAC=52:54:00:42:35:5C \
                -e REDIRECT=http://your.awaken.service \
                --network host \

USAGE

As an example:

• the host running this container has ip 192.168.1.40.
• i set 8565 as SERVER_PORT
• i set the MAC address of the target machine i want to wake up
• i set the webui of the service this target machine offer when awake. Ex: http://192.168.1.50⁠

Result:

When i go to http://192.168.1.40:8565⁠:

• the magic packet is sent to the target machine MAC address
• waiting until TIMEOUT for wake up
• when wake up the HTTP request is redirect to http://192.168.1.50⁠
