SW_DevShellCmd

Device Module "ShellCmd"

Description

This module allows you to execute a shell command on escape sequences. On occurrence of a command listed in the dictionary, the associated shell command will be executed. This can be used for existing escape commands as well as for new "creations". The normal effect of existing commands is not masked or changed, but extended by the execution of the additional shell command.

Example section in config file:

"shellcmd": {
      "type": "shellcmd",
      "enable": true,
      "LUT": {
        "KEY1": "command to be executed on <ESC>KEY1",
        "KEY2": "command to be executed on <ESC>KEY2",
        "TP1": "curl -s -o null http://fs200.fritz.box/cm?cmnd=Power%20On",
        "TP0": "curl -s -o null http://fs200.fritz.box/cm?cmnd=Power%20Off",
        "x": "explorer"
      }
    }

Note

The output of the commands is sent to the screen module, but not to the teleprinter, unless it has been turned on to active state before.
