[Feature Request] Sleep Timer

[michaellunzer]

Hey James,

Great work on Iris! It would be really nice to add a sleep timer to this project.

I'm not sure what the best way to implement it would be, but I imagine a menu near Settings which allows you to set a timer for a specified amount of time, either increments of 5 minutes on a select list or just put some iOS style time pickers

Let me know if this is something worth pursuing or not

Thanks!

This type of functionality lives in the backend. So you would need to construct a container in core.py to hold the sleep configuration. This would also make it accessible to all clients.

Then you'd need to implement the frontend component to manage the sleep configuration, and JS actions to listen for changes to the backend configuration (as applied by other clients).

So it's far from a 5 minute job.

Makes sense to piggy-back existing extension Mopidy-Alarmclock when sleep functionality is implemented, rather than baking this in to Iris.
