TIL about caffeinate
a built-in macOS command-line tool that prevents your Mac from sleeping.
Some commands I use:
-d
- prevent display sleep-i
- prevent system idle sleep-m
- prevent disk idle sleep-u
- declare that user is activecaffeinate -dt 600
- prevents display sleep for 10 minutes.caffeinate -i script.sh
- keeps system awake only while the script runs, then exits.
