Keep your machine awake and unlocked by making a mouse move at regular interval. Start it when you are not actively using your machine.

Stay Awake is:

• Platform independent - Works on OS X, Windows and Linux
• Ultra light - total distribution size around 10 kb
• Self contained - No library dependencies

• Make sure we have JRE on machine
• Download the application distribution archive and extract it
• (optional) Add the {extracted_archives_path}/bin to PATH env variable

• Run the bat (on Windows) or shell file (on OS X / Linux)

  • by double clicking the file
  • or if we have it on PATH, just call the script stay-awake

• We can optionally pass a number representing interval in seconds. Mouse moves at this interval. Recommended value is between 15 - 90.

• To stop, press control+c

We should have gradle locally Change the requires files and then from the project root:

• Simplest way is to run with Gradle run

  $ gradle run

• To run with generated OS specific scripts:

  1. run
     gradle clean dZ && cd build/distributions && unzip -o stay-awake.zip && cd -

  2. and then
     ./build/distributions/stay-awake/bin/stay-awake 10

• We can run/debug the Main class with IntelliJ Idea or any IDE of our choice as well.
