wolay - A tiny Wake-On-Lan Relay server

• I wanted to be able to Wake-On-Lan my stuff over tailscale, so run this on a small SBC

Features

• Wake-On-LAN relay
• Shutdown/WOL on a schedule

Usage

./wolay --help
Usage: wolay [OPTIONS]

Options:
  -a, --listen-addrs <LISTEN_ADDRS>...  Define multiple addresses for wolay to listen on (e.g. 127.0.0.1:6789)
