Add ability to run shell scripts #85

Closed nerddeluxe closed 8 years ago

nerddeluxe commented 8 years ago

I would like the ability to run shell scripts so that when I say "Alexa, turn on/off ...." the bridge can be configured to run a shell script. What I am thinking of creating is a Wake On Lan script.

This feature would be amazing. Currently I have to call a PHP script via Apache which in turn runs a shell script via exec. This is required for WOL and ps4-waker or for light bulbs that require a sequence rather than a single UDP packet (i.e. dimming LimitlessLED).

I really appreciate the work you have put into ha-bridge - it is a great solution and works flawlessly. Thank you very much!

I actually just set this up today using the Raspberry Pi 3 and a LAMP server, the same way mvau has it set up. It's actually pretty awesome.

This is great! The features will be coming soon, even the multiple calls for the limitlessLED
