First, super excited about your plugin! I have a front door LTS camera, which generally acts like a Hikvision for everything, that I have Intrusion Alerts setup. When I set that camera up, I get this error:

Later on I see it like this:

Any ideas? Thanks!

Did you configure the camera settings (ip address, port, username, password) in the device configuration dialog?

Yes. I've set IP, port, user, and pass. I'm trying to figure out how to add some debugging so I can see what "content" contains. It's an xml object, I guess? I'm wondering if my firmware has all the details you're looking for.

I see it now. Your camera is not reporting firmware version. Let me make a couple of adjustments. Stand by...

Here's the content.response:

So it seems like it doesn't have some of the keys you're expecting to see?

I feel like this could be a camera config problem on my end. I'm a novice with this camera stuff.

It is a namespace issue - I'm specifically looking for Hikvision. I think I can figure this out using your debug output.

Awesome. Thanks!

Give this a try: https://vulture.lagaros.com/IndigoPlugins/Hikvision/Hikvision.indigoPlugin_0.1.1.zip

That zip file contains version 0.1.0 I think.

I forgot to advance the version number. You can download again now.

Looks like it works! (Ignore the smtp error, my setup is probably wrong.)

This is WAY better than what I was doing, ie, using the Better Email plugin to watch for an email from my camera to trigger stuff.

And just to give you an idea of what I'm doing. I setup a trigger which watches for the device to change the 'Intrusion Detection' state to 'OPEN', and then it grabs a picture from the camera via the snapshot URL, and sends it via iMessage to me.

Looks like it works well! Thanks for the plugin!

Glad you are getting use from it. How are you doing the iMessage part of this?

It's a shell script that runs AppleScript:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
curl -s http://user:pass@192.168.55.218/Streaming/channels/1/picture > /tmp/8.jpg

osascript <<EOD
tell application "Messages"
set targetBuddy to "+PHONENUMBERHERE"
set targetService to id of 1st service whose service type = iMessage
set myFile to "/tmp/8.jpg"
set DestFile to (POSIX file myFile) as string
send file DestFile to buddy targetBuddy of service id targetService
end tell
EOD


The mac this runs on is logged into an Apple iMessages account already and has iMessages open.
