how2 shutdown unraid from android plus delete a file on unraid usb

[shimlapinks]

Hey, I'm looking to shutdown unraid from my  Android Phone, this can be done in an awkward way using the web browser but I also need to delete a file beforehand.  Of course I could go into a docker say Krusader but this would be even more awkard from a phone..

 

The steps I want to take in as close to a one click manner as possible:

1) Delete a file called deleteme.txt from the Unraid USB flash drive which I have previously placed on there

2) Shutdown the server

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

You can get unRAID itself to delete the file on shutdown using the User Scripts plugin.

 

You can shutdown unRAID from Android using the ControlR app.

fantastic, thank you so much

 

edit - I have created the file deletion script using the CA User Scripts, is there a way to add this code permanently to the Unraid shutdown/reboot routine or that it would be invoked from the shutdown option within ControlR? I cant see a way to start the CA User Scripts from within ControlR

 

Thanks again

Set the schedule within CA for when to run it as "Array Stop"
