~/go/bin/wol --help
wol --help

import (
  wol "github.com/HuakunShen/wol/wol-go"
)
...

CLI Demo

• main.go
• executable: wol

Python

• wol.py

python3 wol-py/wol.py aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff -i 255.255.255.255 -p 9
python3 -m unittest discover wol-py

Zig

• wol-zig

Requires Zig 0.16 or newer.

cd wol-zig && zig build run -- aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff 255.255.255.255 9
zig build test

JavaScript / TypeScript

• wol-js — Node, Bun and Deno implementations plus a CLI.

npm i wol-js          # Node / Bun
deno add jsr:@hk/wol  # Deno

See wol-js/README.md for usage; the Deno entrypoint needs --unstable-net.

• wol-rust

cd wol-rust && cargo run -- aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff 255.255.255.255 9

MAC address formats

Every implementation accepts the same two forms: 12 bare hexadecimal characters (aabbccddeeff), or six hexadecimal pairs separated by ., : or - (aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff). Separators are only accepted in the positions where they belong, and anything else is rejected rather than silently reinterpreted. All of them emit a byte-identical 102-byte packet and exit non-zero on failure.
