Use a bluetooth beacon to lock your Mac when you leave its proximity

Use your Google Bluetooth LE beacon to lock your Mac screen. Probably very insecure and crap. I wrote it in about half an hour.

npm install

node app.js

Find your devices id from the list that is printed out.

Copy your device id into config.example.json, and rename it config.json

Re-run the app.

When your beacon's distance falls below the threshold (default -50), the Mac screensaver app will be executed.
