Sleep Mode

[tatoosh]

I would like to have a sleep mode like TVs or my denon reciever has.
Like 10min/20min etc. so runeaudio will stop.

I was investigating a litle,

If it was a debian based system you could run something like this

Code: Select all

 curl http://localhost/command/?cmd=stop | at date +"%T" -d '+20 minutes'


Since we are on Arch, I can't find the "at" command

I can't help more, but I'm shure thats a lot of people on this forum will have a solution for this.

After that is solved, it's a question of UI to make a screan to select the off set time and a litle php script to run a shel command

I also came from debian so i can try this parameter with volumio distribution.
Thanks @jpfelgueiras for the snippet.

This command works for me (shutting down the rpi after the 20 minutes time period)

Code: Select all

shutdown -P +20

Or if you just want to stop the mpc use shell script

Code: Select all

sleep 20m
mpc stop

Good solution. How to implement this in the web interface? I will ask for an api.

I will ask for an api.

That is under work, but for such custom things we'll think about a way to run custom scripts from the UI.

[tatoosh]

Thats a gold idea, thanks

Is the idea to shutdown the raspberry or to stop the music?

I never (almost) shutdown the raspberry, becaus it dosent have wake up on lan. I think it's a better idea to just stop the music

[tatoosh]

Yes, my raspberry is also running 24x7.
The music should only stop, also by playing spotify. So my last.FM stats are correct and i dont have to switch anything of while sleeping.

An optimation is to fade the music. there also is a MPC sleep script for that, so i am waiting for custom script implemention.

I looked at the RuneUI code and managed to add a new button for my command in file footer.php.
It is necessary to modify also runeui.js and rune_SY_wrk files.
