TargetMacs

[captainhowdy1]

Is there a way to have the JSON output print names of devices that I manually input into a seperate file?
For example, if I know that my android has a mac address of 1A:DC:5C:8E:15:7B, could I manually configure a file for the script to refer to so that while running it would associate 1A:DC:5C:8E:15:7B with "myandroid" and print out the name "myandroid" for me to quickly recognize rather than the mac address?

You can use --targetmacs

Thank you for the response! Is there a template that I am missing that would have the format I would need. I am having a hard time creating a file that the script understands from scratch. "Macaddress"="nickname" in .txt format is the basic structure I've tried

Oh, sorry I misunderstood your question. There is no way to do that in howmanypeoplearearound.

You can make sure that it only detects 1A:DC:5C:8E:15:7B by making a file and passing it with that mac.

E.g.

howmanypeoplearearound --targetmacs macs.txt

And macs.txt:

1A:DC:5C:8E:15:7B

You could easily change the name in post-processing though, via sed or something.
