Modify GPIO status on Raspberry Pi with a Website run on another server

Is there any possibility to modify for example a specific GPIO status, or shutdown the Raspberry Pi or modify crontab on it from a website which is run on another web server?

The IP-Address of the Raspberry Pi2 is static and I can normally ping the website from it.

Thanks in advance

Solution

  • modify for example a specific GPIO status

    pigpio is a library for the Pi doing just that. Using a daemon and socket interface it is possible to controll GPIO pins on a remote system. Simple examples are provided on the linked page.

    shutdown the Raspberry Pi or modify crontab
