Run plist on wake

397 views Asked by At

I've been searching all over and found options at launchd site. Is there a way to launch a .plist on machine wake? If this is not possible is there a way to run a shell script without installing another package and just use plain shell?

At first it didn't work on my OSX Sierra mac. After restarting my machine the plist configuration seems to work now.

<key>RunAtLoad</key>
<true/>

This key makes sure that your plist runs at wake and if you want to specify which script it will run you can do so by

<dict>
    <key>PathState</key>
    <dict>
        <key>/path/to/your/shell/script.sh</key>
        <true/>
    </dict>
</dict>
