I think the best way to set the delay for powering on is just before the device powers off. The reason for powering off could be for several different reasons: -- user presses power button -- Mopi initiates power off because of a set delay -- Mopi initiates power off because battery is dying -- command line tells RPi to power off
My question is: what's the recommended way to execute a python script (or other type of script) immediately before shutdown?
What I would like to do is read a JSON file that has the schedule for when the device should turn on, set the delay using the mopiapi, then continue powering the RPi down.
