How do you control GPIO with raspberry pi when it detects motion?

First check out the Action Buttons example here:
https://github.com/ccrisan/motioneyeos/wiki/Action-Buttons

Then connect to your motioneyeOS Raspberry Pi through the web interface and look for the Motion Notifications option (near the bottom):
Run a command
Run an end command

Create two files in /data/etc contains your bash scripts to control the GPIO, as per the Action Buttons example, one script to make your GPIO HIGH, the other to make it LOW.
Remember to make these script files executable using: chmod +x your_script_name
Finally plug the full path name of each script file into the 'Run a command' and 'Run an end command' boxes in motioneyeOS. Might have to reboot.

I've tested this recently and the 'Run a command' script is executed when motion is first detected, and the 'Run an end command' script is executed when the motion event ends.
Hope this helps.
