Shell scripts through mirror

[Trmst]

Hi.

I am trying to implement a way to turn my lights on and off. I have managed to write 2 very simple shell scripts in my rpi, one that turns lights on and one turns lights off.

What is the easiest way to run these scripts through the magic mirror? I am also intending to run this by voice control, so a suggestion on how to do this is also appreciated.

@trmst the way I’m calling the turn off monitor cmd in my voice module you can execute your shell script.
