Usage

You must be at the RetroPie-Manager's directory to use the rpmanager.sh like in the examples below.

Start

./rpmanager.sh --start

Open your browser and go to http://your_retropie_ip:8000/

Stop

./rpmanager.sh --stop

More options

[prompt]$ ./rpmanager.sh --help
Usage: rpmanager.sh OPTIONS

The OPTIONS are:

-h|--help           print this message and exit

--start             start the RetroPie-Manager

--stop              stop the RetroPie-Manager

--isrunning         show if RetroPie-Manager is running and the
                    listening port and exit

--log               save the log messages (optional, default: not save log
                    messages, only works with --start)

-u|--user USER      start RetroPie-Manager as USER (only available for
                    privileged users, only works with --start, USER must 
                    be a RetroPie user)

The --start and --stop options are, obviously, mutually exclusive. If the
user uses both, only the first works.

sudo nano /opt/retropie/configs/all/autostart.sh

/PATH/TO/RetroPie-Manager/rpmanager.sh --start 2>&1 &
