Server awoken by others about plex-listen-and-wol-for-raspbian

This is brilliant well done. You have definitely earned yourself some carbon credits in the future. I'd say one feature / future enhancement would be to only wake upon a specific user connecting. The unintended (or maybe intended ) side effect is if you have shared your library to others the main server will wake when they connect to their client even if they have no intention of browsing yours.

Great job! I'm thinking of forking to make the change from above.

I understand this, but I don't think it is possible, at least from within this code. It just exploits your plex account, and wakes the server once an account that has that server shared or is the owner. Maybe by editing plex preferences? Or allowing access from a specific IP address?

Thanks! Glad you are enjoying it.

One potential thing you can do here is to create a new Plex account solely used on the Pi server and only share access from it to Plex accounts you wish to have the ability to wake the PC...

Agreed. Once I peeked at the code after writing this I realized that what I was asking wasn't within the scope of how this operates. Well done none the less.
