re-connect not working #15

Closed suuuehgi closed 1 year ago

Hi,

it seems to connect fine the first time but if I switch the bluetooth device off and on again, it is not being picked up by the script anymore.

Nothing appearing on bluetooth-autoconnect -v -d.

It's stuck in GLib.MainLoop() without doing anything.

Please see this issue: https://github.com/jrouleau/bluetooth-autoconnect/issues/4

This script makes connection attempts when in daemon mode and a bluez adapter is powered on (e.g. bluetoothctl power on) or as a one-off via bluetooth-autoconnect (or by sending SIGHUP to bluetooth-autoconnect -d). It does not detect other devices when they are powered on or brought in from out of range. It is generally up to each device to announce itself when powered on. If you aren't concerned about battery life, you could configure a cron job or similar to continually probe.
