Caffeine-rs uses the shift-release key to keep the screen awake without locking or starting a screensaver.

Cross platform is the goal with an emphasis on Windows which is what the original caffeine application was designed for.

You can clone from GitHub or IPFS:

• GitHub: git clone https://www.github.com/LogoiLab/caffeine-rs.git

• IPFS: git clone https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmSqBKbDvmSaxYBWNsUHRDadBuAvoYNTWRJE1HmdN5rdXH/caffeine-rs (note: IPFS version by inherent design is always at least one commit behind the GitHub version)

Caffeine takes no inputs, but it may read a configuration file if you place one in the same directory as caffeine itself. The configuration file is a toml file named caffeine.toml. An example caffeine.toml file:

caffeine.toml

refresh_rate = 10
start_after = 30
exit_after = 800
active_for = 900

This modifies the default refresh rate to once every 10 seconds, only starts running after 30 seconds, exits after 800 seconds, sets the program active for a total of 900 seconds.
