Full Version: JSON-RPC - System.Exec ? how to
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Hello folks, 
have been doing some research and googling around but can't really find anything fresh on the topic.

What I want to achieve is to execute System.Exec(exec) via JSON-RPC. Everything what I've found referencing on using Addons.ExecuteAddon but discussions are 7yrs old and it is not even listed in JSON-RPC methods.

So... is there a way how to invoke System.Exec via JSON rpc? 
or any other way how to execute system command or python script?

I'm aware of RunScript, which can be mapped to the key on the remote, but that's not my usecase. I want to execute script or custom command from other devices (so JSON-RPC looked promising...)

Thanks for pointing me to the right direction!
Cheers
