Automatic Start Airsonos

[grisu0816]

Is it possible to start airsonos automatically on the pi start ? I don't now how !

[wboerhout]

put the following line in /etc/rc.local:

sudo -u root -i /path/to/airsonos

(lookup the correct path for airsonos with "whereis airsonos" or "which airsonos")

the -i makes sure that the process created for airsonos has the same environment setup as an interactive login, so all PATH info is correct.

This isn't in the current scope of the project. Another solution: #197

to use crontab you need to make sure the node's path is explicitly called

A. find the location of airsonos script by executing which airsonos
B. set the node path explicitly on the first line
i.e.
emacs /usr/local/bin/airsonos

#!/usr/bin/env /usr/local/bin/node`

C. create the restart script :
emacs /tmp/keepAliveASonos.sh

copy this script in

#!/bin/sh
if ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep airsonos ; then
        echo "airsonos is running"
        exit 0
else
        /usr/local/bin/airsonos&
    echo "airsonos restarted"
        exit 0
fi

D. set the permissions : chmod 755 /tmp/keepAliveASonos.sh

E. setup your cron to execute every 5 min by doing the following

• crontab -e
• */5 * * * * /tmp/keepAliveASonos.sh > /tmp/asonosRestart.log
