Wakify is an easy to use web application that lets you wake your computers from anywhere in the world.

h2. Requirements

Wakify needs to have access to your system Ping command (part of iputils).

Wakify expects that your system ping to respond appropriately to a command such as the following:

@ping example.com -c 3@

Where @-c@ sets the number of packets to send.

h2. Thanks

Thanks to Ryan Bates for his nifty_generators and his excellent Railscasts.

h2. Credits

The WakeOnLan Ruby script found in @app/models/wakeonlan.rb@ was originally written by "K.Kodama":http://www.math.kobe-u.ac.jp/~kodama/tips-WakeOnLAN.html. I have made significant alterrations to the way it functions and removed some functions that were not necessary for the operation of Wakify.

The icons found in the @public/images/tango/@ directory are part of the "Tango Icon Library":http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Library and have been released into the public domain.

The "jQuery":http://jquery.com/ JavaScript library is included in the @public/javascripts/@ directory and it is licensed under both the "GPLv2":http://jquery.com/dev/svn/trunk/jquery/GPL-LICENSE.txt and "MIT":http://jquery.com/dev/svn/trunk/jquery/MIT-LICENSE.txt licenses.

The "jQuery validation plug-in" is included in the @public/javascripts/@ directory and it is also dual licensed under both the "GPL":http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html and "MIT":http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php licenses.

The "IE8.js":http://code.google.com/p/ie7-js/ JavaScript library was created by Dean Edwards, and it aims to make Internet Explorer (pre-IE8) behave more like a standards compliant browser. It is licensed under a "MIT":http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php license.

Chroma Hash is a jQuery plugin that acts as a visual helper for password entry. It was created by "Matt Thompson":http://mattt.me and is licensed under the "MIT":http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php license. I'm using a fork created by "Joel Moss":http://codaset.com/joelmoss/ that removes the dependency on jQueryUI.
