Add `spoof-mac startup` option to automate and toggle running on startup. #13

Closed TkTech closed 9 years ago

TkTech commented 11 years ago

Actually, thinking about it, this might be better as a flag on the existing options, ex:

spoof-mac randomize wi-fi --on-startup
spoof-mac set 00:00:00:00:00:00 wi-fi --on-startup

Thoughts @feross ?

I like it. This is really elegant. One issue, though, is that it doesn't make sense to do more than one of these commands at startup, so --on-startup should probably overwrite the previous SpoofMAC startup setting, if one exists.

totally. it should overwrite the previous startup setting so that only one setting (the last on) at a time is set. not sure about the reset. should spoof-mac reset wi-fi stop the startup setting?

feross commented 11 years ago

@martinjuhasz It would be useful to be able to reset your MAC to the original hardware MAC without killing the startup setting. Maybe we can do something like this?

spoof-mac set 00:00:00:00:00:00 wi-fi --startup spoof-mac reset wi-fi --startup

@martinjuhasz @TkTech Are either of you interested in implementing this? I won't have time for this for a week or two, so you're free to do it first, if you like.

TkTech commented 11 years ago

It's unlikely I could get to it until next weekend.

A --global option might be nice as well, by default --startup should be implicitly --user.

Closing this issue because it's super old. If someone really wants this feature, PR still welcome!
