`adrenaline`

============

Simple Python module to prevent your computer from going to sleep. Supports

Windows and macOS at the moment; Linux support is coming soon (hopefully).

Usage

-----

The module provides a context manager named `prevent_sleep()`. The computer

will not go to sleep while the execution is in this context:

```python

from adrenaline import prevent_sleep

with prevent_sleep():

    # do something important here

    ...

```

Optionally, you can also prevent the screen from turning off:

```python

with prevent_sleep(display=True):

    # do something important here

    ...

```

Command line interface

----------------------

You can also use this module from the command line as follows:

```sh

$ python -m adrenaline

```

The command line interface will prevent sleep mode as long as it is running.
