Ability to disable Bonjour on sleep for GNTP #257

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What feature or enhancement do you propose?
The option to tell Growl to stop publishing itself with bonjour on sleep, and 
republish itself on wake.  Conceivably, this could be done a couple ways or 
more, we can put it in the core of Growl, or, we can provide a toggle via the 
Growl Control suite of Applescript commands for incoming network notifications, 
and let users use tools which already exist for running scripts on wake/sleep

What problem does it solve/What benefit does it provide?
Sleep proxy is great, but for some users, it could produce undesirable results. 
 My tests with sleep proxy today showed that sound/speech don't get processed 
unless/until the user fully wakes the computer (meaning you could wake the 
computer to an unknown beep, or an uncontrollable voice).  Laptops on battery 
power in sleep mode could also run into battery life issues if there were 
frequent notifications.

If we go the Growl Control suite route, users could turn off accept incoming 
notifications in a variety of conditions they decided they didn't want it on 
and broadcasting its availability (public/unknown wifi's for instance)

Added to GrowlControl Applescript suite ability to ask if we are accepting 
incoming network notifications, and disable or enable.  There are already tools 
for running scripts on sleep/wake out there, so if someone has a problem with 
Growl waking their Mac via sleep proxy, they can use this scripting interface.
