Shutdown button - script

[nicolasdb]

• [x] Connection cable between button and RaspiGPIO
• [x] Automatic shutdown script 1rst tryout (auto-shutdown on one press)
• [x] Ergonommic shutdown (auto-shutdown after X seconds pressing)
• [ ] timer of reset (return to emulator menu) to 0.5s, timer to shutdown to 3s
• [ ] led OFF when no pressure on button, blinking for the RESET timing, blinking faster for the POWEROFF timing, ON when the system is ready to shutdown

1rst try out is with builtin poweroff button function, like said in recal bx manual: https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Add-a-start-stop-button-to-your-recalbox-(EN) But this only need one click to poweroff, needs to find a solution where button needs to be hold on (5S) to poweroff.

May have a solution by modifying the scripts /recalbox/scripts/rpi-pin356-power.py see : https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-buildroot/blob/master/board/recalbox/fsoverlay/recalbox/scripts/rpi-pin356-power.py

1rst try, modifying value speed

    if channel == POWERPLUS:
        speed=0.15
        shutdownstring="shutdown -h now"
    elif channel == RESETPLUS:
        speed=0.05
shutdownstring="shutdown -r now"

to

    if channel == POWERPLUS:
        speed=2.15
        shutdownstring="shutdown -h now"
    elif channel == RESETPLUS:
        speed=1.05
shutdownstring="shutdown -r now"

hoping to add a delay to 2seconde, but no results

• ! No sudo mode for recalbox, needs to do a mount/unmount stuff (Which maybe could be a solution for this issue): https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Add-your-own-startup-script-(EN)
• tip : to acces terminal via emulationstation interface press F4, then ALT+F2. Root credentials are user : root , pass : recalboxroot

modification on this file weren't taken in account before because the wrong line was uncommented in recalbox/share/system/recalbox.conf the line to be uncommented :

;system.power.switch=PIN356PUSHRESET

The parameter to modify, in /recalbox/scripts/rpi-pin356-power.py :

in function :

def push_mode(channel):
...
while flag:
...
   if (timer>30):
       ....
   if (timer>10):
       ....

So to turn off the console, keep pressing 3sec, to go back to home screen of recalbox, press 1sec

trying now to have a LED blinking while pressing the button following https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Add-a-start-stop-button-to-your-recalbox-%28EN%29

on 1rst try, the behavior of the LED is the following :

• the LED stays ON when console is ON
• It blinks when the system shutdown

Et on clot l'issue
