NAME

     caffeinate -- prevent the system from sleeping on behalf of a utility

SYNOPSIS

     caffeinate [-disb] [utility] [argument ...]

DESCRIPTION

     caffeinate creates assertions to alter system sleep behavior.  If no

     assertion flags are specified, caffeinate creates an assertion to prevent

     idle sleep.  If a utility is specified, caffeinate creates the assertions

     on the utility's behalf, and those assertions will persist for the dura-

     tion of the utility's execution. Otherwise, caffeinate creates the asser-

     tions directly, and those assertions will persist until caffeinate exits.

     Available options:

     -d      Create an assertion to prevent the display from sleeping.

     -i      Create an assertion to prevent the system from idle sleeping.

     -s      Create an assertion to prevent the system from sleeping. By

             default, this assertion is valid only when system is running on

             AC power. If -b flag is also specified, then the system is pre-

             vented from sleeping even when running on battery power.
