WakeOnLAN-API

A simple http interface to send wake on LAN commands.

Just send a

• GET to /FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
• POST to /FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
• GET to /wol/FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
• POST to /wol/FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF

where FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF is the desired MAC address of the device to be woken up.

Setup

pip install wol_api

Run

wol_api --port=8080

Docker

docker run -d \
  --name="WakeOnLAN-API" \
  -e PORT=8080 \
  --network host \
  rix1337/docker-wol-api:latest

The desired port is set by environment variable PORT for a reason! You must use --network host, else the magic packets will not be sent to the correct network.
