pi-power-switch

Control relay board with REST API on a Raspberry Pi

Under development - current version is a proof of concept only!

Tested with:

Features

Control GPIO output pins with simple REST API
One output emulates myStrom WiFi Switch API for simple integration into other scripts
Runs as system service (see scripts/init.d)

Install bottle and gpiozero Python libraries:

pip install bottle
sudo apt install python-gpiozero

Copy this file to /home/pi

or wherever you prefer, e.g. /usr/local/bin
Connect relay module board:
- verify if relays are active high or low. Adapt Python script accordingly.
- set BCM pin numbers in Python script

Install script as system service:

if this script was not installed in /home/pi: change $DIR and $LOG_DIR in pi-power-api script.

sudo copy ./scripts/init.d/pi-power-api /etc/init.d/
sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/pi-power-api
sudo update-rc.d pi-power-api defaults
