Having the option to not start Hotel with the OS #233

Open czj opened 6 years ago

czj commented 6 years ago

I did not find in the code nor in the documentation a way to prevent Hotel from starting on OS boot.

The motivation behind launching it manually to prevent having it start when I'm not coding on my laptop, to reduce battery drain.

I've tried setting permissions as 444 on the plist file in ~/Library/LaunchAgents to trick Hotel but it did not work.

Hi @czj,

If you run hotel stop, it should stop hotel and prevent from starting with OS (it removes plist from ~/Library/LaunchAgents).

Let me know if it doesn't work.

It works well, but every time I shutdown my computer I have to think about typing hotel stop ... that's the only issue here :)

czj commented 6 years ago

It works and if you don't want to implement the behavior you can close the issue, I understand :)

Hi!

I am looking for that feature too. Is it something that is planned ?
