Kiosk Mode

Forums:

Kiosk mode is a fairly simple way to set up a non-gui version of pi using just the CLI. You build the pi to simply start with an open browser pointing to a simple web service. You then set up the web service using html, etc to perform the tasks which you wish to accomplish. Here is a very good article on how it should be done Link As in most cases, I would rather point to a good article than recreate the wheel. :) *Note - where mentioned to edit the .bash_profile, this file will be in the root of the pi login or ~/. You can edit this file if you have created it by using nano ~/.bash_profile. It normally does not exist, so you will need to create a new one if using it. You may also have to use sudo depending on how you created it. You can remove -nocursor if you want to be able to use the mouse on the display, else you will not have any local control of using a mouse. (This may not matter if you are specifically using it from a remote web page.,)
