Take snapshot with camera when ringing doorbell

Posted: Saturday 16 July 2016 23:26

I am new to this forum and have some questions. Although I have searched for a topic on this forum, I get not found anything that can help me. I'm a starter with Domoticz and already playfully acquainted with the program. I have no programming knowledge, but do like to experiment with everything that has to do with automation. What I have achieved; At this time I got it done if someone rings my doorbell, enters the lighting in my hall and I get a push message on my phone. What do I expand now? I would like it if someone pressed my doorbell with my security camera a snapshot is created and sent via push to my phone. I read somewhere that this should be possible by using a script. Where can I find a script that I can modify it if necessary? How / where do I put the software Domoticz this script? Where can I find somewhere a good description of "how it works". Thanks for the effort

I have been working on this for a while now and used the script provided by a fellow Domoticz forum user.
The script has been improved over time, it now consists of transcoding a video directly from the RTSP stream from my cam and sending it to Telegram when someone hits the doorbell. In the event that someone hits the doorbell again within 10 seconds after the previous push the script does nothing.

I've created a blockly event where it rings the bell and kicks off the script below the moment de doorbell is pressed.

Make sure you have ffmpeg installed [sudo apt-get install ffmpeg]

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
now=$(date +"%T")

SnapFile="/var/tmp/frontdoorcam.mp4"    # Temp name of the video, change it when using this script for multiple cams
VideoLength=5     # Seconds to record
WaitTime=10       # Seconds the script waits before it sends another video
User=****         # Username which has access to the RTSP stream
Password=******   # Password for above provided user
rtspUrl="rtsp://$User:$Password@[IP address]/"   # Use https://sourceforge.net/projects/onvifdm/ to find your correct RTSP stream url
ChatID=*******    # Telegram chat ID   See https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Installing_Telegram_Notification_System for setup instructions
TelegramAPIToken=*********:**********************     # Telegram API token

filedate=`stat -L --format %Y $SnapFile`
retc=$?
if [ $retc -eq 0 ] ; then
        sec=$(( `date +%s`-$filedate))
        echo file found and age is $sec seconds
else
        sec=999
        echo File not found $SnapFile
fi
if [ $sec -gt $WaitTime ] ; then    
        echo file older than $WaitTime seconds:  $sec sending video
        ffmpeg -y -i $rtspUrl -r 30 -vcodec copy -an -t $VideoLength $SnapFile
        curl -s -F chat_id=$ChatID -F video="@$SnapFile" -F caption="$now Doorbell ringing.." https://api.telegram.org/bot$TelegramAPIToken/sendVideo
else
        echo There was another try within $WaitTime seconds: $sec
fi

Hello Ernieb44, can you do a more detailed explanation on how to make this? :oops:

Looks like FFMPEG isint available.
Had to use: apt-get install libav-tools

Guess that now for me to send photos instead of video it should be something like this (will try as soon as I get home):

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
now=$(date +"%T")

SnapFile="/var/tmp/frontdoorcam.jpg"    # Temp name of the photo, change it when using this script for multiple cams
#VideoLength=5     # Seconds to record
WaitTime=10       # Seconds the script waits before it sends another photo
User=****         # Username which has access to the RTSP stream
Password=******   # Password for above provided user
rtspUrl="rtsp://$User:$Password@[IP address]/"   # Use https://sourceforge.net/projects/onvifdm/ to find your correct RTSP stream url
ChatID=*******    # Telegram chat ID   See https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Installing_Telegram_Notification_System for setup instructions
TelegramAPIToken=*********:**********************     # Telegram API token

filedate=`stat -L --format %Y $SnapFile`
retc=$?
if [ $retc -eq 0 ] ; then
        sec=$(( `date +%s`-$filedate))
        echo file found and age is $sec seconds
else
        sec=999
        echo File not found $SnapFile
fi
if [ $sec -gt $WaitTime ] ; then    
        echo file older than $WaitTime seconds:  $sec sending photo
        avconv -rtsp_transport tcp -i $rtspUrl -f image2 -vframes 1 -pix_fmt yuvj420p $SnapFile     # avconv -i $rtspUrl -vf $SnapFile
        curl -s -F chat_id=$ChatID -F photo="@$SnapFile" -F caption="$now Doorbell ringing.." https://api.telegram.org/bot$TelegramAPIToken/sendPhoto

FFMpeg is installed. RTSP dream works in VLC. When I run the script I get the following error.

Did you change the variables to your own, IP adres, password...… etc. And if so, did you get the script working after all?

I did examen this piece of code. I cannot find the part where the ip camera starts to record and give back the result to the variable $retc in this bash file. Should be here I think but it isn't "retc=$?=$?………………………." :oops: I will look further…….

Would be awesome if you get it right.

Re: Take snapshot with camera when ringing doorbell

I got it working. The code is allright. Use your ip adres of your camera (not domoticz) and right url, see onvif suggestions in the code. So your ip and url should be in place of this piece of code "@192.168.1.22:554/play1.sdp/" Copy code from the net make sure it is not dos characters, so use dos2unix if you get unespected and of file running bash. Do install FFMJPEG library. And do not forget to chmod your bashfile.That s it. :D
