[Timeriffic] Action based on current wifi network #33

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
I'd like Timeriffic to take actions based on the current Wifi SSID network name.

In my case my devices always have wifi on (IMHO it's not such as battery 
drainer as people say). I can tell whether I'm home, or at work/university or 
in the bus just by looking at the current wifi network name.

So for example you could also have a "Starbucks" profile for those who like 
this kind of place.

However if your goal is to save power by turning off wifi, then that won't help 
and issue #31 is a better replacement.

The University campus where I work comprises 7.7 square miles, and the wireless 
network covers about 5 square miles of that area! Anyone wanting something more 
fine-grained actions based on something other than "near the campus wireless" 
would have to use course-grain cell tower fixes or fine-grain GPS fixes, the 
latter being troublesome because many campus buildings are fairly impervious to 
GPS signals.
