Your code above worked. All I did was add in <string>/usr/bin/osascript</string> and my AppleScript ran like a charm. Thank you!

You could modify the launchd job to call your shell script directly – then both commands could be placed in the script. If this is for work, consider something like Power Manager or another third party tool. | |
| Feb 16, 2017 at 16:58 | comment | added | cphill | Thanks for the answer. I'm not sure if I would need to as I'm just learning about plists and launchd. To sum up my shell script above, I'm changing directories to where my app.js file exists and then indicating where node exists and running the nodejs comman on my js file with an argument. Your answer above looks like it only includes the second half of the command. Would it possible to do both within the plist? | |
