Hello, I have been triying for a while to do a shutdown remote button for the raspberrypi cuz im making a remote controlled rover but whatever i do doesnt work cuz I guess its dificult for people not to be able to shut doen your computer.
What i have tried is making javascript execute a file witha shutdown now -h in it but it doesnt work.
Any help would be apreciated.

 

Internetz say that u need 2 be super user 2 run shutdown command.

 

systemctl poweroff works for me. This requires some recent enough version of Systemd. On old systems halt might work, I cant remember if that required root or not, or via some obscure dbus command.

Also lol.

 

Nevermind, found out a way to do it.
I just told javascriopt that if a button is pushed it turns on a gpio, and i call in python a wait for press that detects if the javascript gpio is pressed
and shutsdown if it is.
Thanks any way.
