RuneAudio Forum

Hello,

I was searching for a way how to shut down my rasp pi via a browser url.

As you can do that in the runeaudio web gui it should be somehow possible. Reason i ask is because i want to control it via my home automation system. I am unfortunately not a linux expert.

If i have understood the client code correctly its using a form for submitting a shutdown command.

You're exactly asking what I want to know too

I hope someone knows it now, 3 years later

It's possible to play, pause, stop, load playlist, set volume by http command.

See: control-play-pause-volume-over-tcp-t3137.html

And: https://www.musicpd.org/doc/html/protoc ... and-setvol

As far as I understand, it are all commands to control the MPD engine. (and not the "Rune-Part") correct me if i'm wrong..


So if anyone knows a trick to shut down a RPI at a certain time, I'd like to hear that!

Oke, solved it by making a Crontab!
Maybe it is usefull for somebody else to know how:

- Login by ssh into pi:
login: root
password: rune

- Enable cron:

Code: Select all

systemctl enable cronie

Code: Select all

systemctl start cronie

- Use Nano to edit crontab:

Code: Select all

sudo EDITOR=nano crontab -e -u root

and then add the following lines:

Code: Select all

30 23 * * 1-5 /sbin/shutdown -h now

Code: Select all

30 10 * * 0,6 /sbin/shutdown -h now

this would shutdown the Pi at 23:30 from Monday to Friday and on 10:30 on Saturday and Sunday.



The structure is very simple:

1. The number of minutes after the hour (0 to 59)
2. The hour in military time (24 hour) format (0 to 23)
3. The day of the month (1 to 31)
4. The month (1 to 12)
5. The day of the week(0 or 7 is Sun, or use name)
6. The command to run
More graphically they would look like this:
* * * * * Command to be executed
- - - - -
| | | | |
| | | | +----- Day of week (0-7)
| | | +------- Month (1 - 12)
| | +--------- Day of month (1 - 31)
| +----------- Hour (0 - 23)
+------------- Min (0 - 59)

Have fun!
