## Activate button and led support
### Full tutorial
[Raspberry Pi Power-Up and Shutdown with a Physical Button](https://embeddedcomputing.com/technology/open-source/development-kits/raspberry-pi-power-up-and-shutdown-with-a-physical-button)
### TL;DR
#### Add button support
1. Edit `/boot/config.txt` file.
2. Add line ` dtoverlay=gpio-shutdown`.
Final result:
```
[...]
[all]
# enable raspicam
start_x=1
gpu_mem=128
# Simple button on/off
dtoverlay=gpio-shutdown
```
#### Add LED support
1. Edit crontab
```
#> crontab -e
```
2. Add the line
```
@reboot raspi-gpio set 4 op dh
```
Final result:
```
# Edit this file to introduce tasks to be run by cron.
#
# Each task to run has to be defined through a single line
# indicating with different fields when the task will be run
# and what command to run for the task
#
# To define the time you can provide concrete values for
# minute (m), hour (h), day of month (dom), month (mon),
# and day of week (dow) or use '*' in these fields (for 'any').
#
# Notice that tasks will be started based on the cron's system
# daemon's notion of time and timezones.
#
# Output of the crontab jobs (including errors) is sent through
# email to the user the crontab file belongs to (unless redirected).
#
# For example, you can run a backup of all your user accounts
# at 5 a.m every week with:
# 0 5 * * 1 tar -zcf /var/backups/home.tgz /home/
#
# For more information see the manual pages of crontab(5) and cron(8)
#
# m h dom mon dow command
@reboot raspi-gpio set 4 op dh
```
