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

 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 @[deleted] for the snippet.

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

shutdown -P +20

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

sleep 20m
mpc stop

tatoosh

Good solution. How to implement this in the web interface? 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.

tatoosh

That looks good, please share your changed code

I have just added a function that does almost the same. It fades the volume over time. You can read more in the RPi forum or go to my blog and read/get the code there:

tatoosh

just take a look at your sceenshot, nice!
I will try out out cyber7

I will look into doing a mpc stop if the end value of the fade is zero...

Another sleep mode alternative: use Tasker on an Android phone.
1. set up a toggle pause task ; #788
2. create a Tasker task timer widget on the android homescreen. Click the left side of the widget to set time interval. Then click widget each time you want to activate the sleep timer.

Similarly you can make Tasker turn on RuneAudio when your Android alarm clock goes off in the morning. (Look at the alarm events in Tasker for that.)
