We have the reboot and update commands on the web page already, could we add a shutdown command?
Reason: It’s not good on the SD Card to pull the power in the middle of a write/access and could lead to corruption.
Current process: SSH into the system and issue a sudo shutdown 0 command.
Benefits: This would be a quicker way and an easier way for non linux people to shutdown the system prior to moving it or replacing hardware.
Submitted to dev for consideration. Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you for being open to the idea.
The image would not write to the SD card during normal use, all logs are written to a RAM drive that is wiped on reboot. This was designed on purpose for feeder life longevity in inaccessible areas with unreliable power.
Unless you pull the power right after starting an update the likelihood of SD Card damage is very small.
Thank you, I appreciate that! That’ll save me some time during my testing and permanent installation not having to run back to sudo shutdown
