Python Plugin: Reolink

After searching for a video doorbell for quite some time I finally settled for a Reolink Video Doorbell Wifi. There is a good Python module available to interact with the camera,
reolink-aio, created by starkillerOG.
I have created a Domoticz plugin,
Domoticz Reolink, to show information from the camera. When creating the plugin I used code and inspiration from Zigbee for Domoticz, mainly to learn more about using asyncio in Domoticz.
Install
Code: Select all
git clone https://github.com/j-b-n/domoticz_reolink
Code: Select all
git pull
sudo python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt --upgrade

I just tried it with the latest beta and latest reolink_aio and it seems to work.
But I am thinking about changing one of the behaviors. Currently I get a motion-signal "on" from the doorbell and immediately after an "off". It might be better to have the “on” for 30 seconds or something and then return to “off”.

I am sorry, the name is likely confusing. I'll look into that.
The webhook is created in the camera by the plugin. Thus the Webhook host is the (from the camera) reachable ip-address of the Domoticz server.
In my setup I use 10.0.0.* where my door camera is on 10.0.0.9 and my Domoticz server is 10.0.0.2 (the webhook host). Note that you cannot use 127.0.0.1 (since that is not reachable by the camera).

Thanks for your support!
Do i need to change a setting in the doorbell? Because i have an error.
Webhook Host, is my domoticz IP, Webhook port is domoticz port.

Seems that the python module reolink_aio is not installed or not installed correctly. Try to install with sudo.if you already had it installed.

When I go to the plugin repository there is a prerequisite mentioned for reolink_aio. That means you have to install it first before you can use the plugin.
So use command
pip3 install reolink-aio
If it still gives the same error use
sudo pip3 install reolink-aio

Yes, sudo pip3 install reolink-aio did it.
After install sudo service domoticz stop and start.
Only it is not working. Maybe settings are not okay in domoticz or doorbell?
I have 3 new devices, motion person, motion and doorbell.
Update: Domoticz stopped working. Restored backup, and removed the plugin.

Hi all,
I have installed the Reolink plugin, i am using a frontdoor videocamera connected via POE. The problem is dat the plugin is not making new devices.
First i had to modify plugin.py, line 134. I changed 127.0.0.1 in the ip adress of the domoticz pi. I left the port on 8989.
If i restart Domoticz the plugin starts without errors (i think) but it doesn't make new devices. What can be the problem?

Thanks.
I tried, accept new devices (was already set green but still pushed the button for 5 minutes) did not help. In this 5 minutes i restarted the plugin also. No succes....

In the latest version of the plugin (do an update) I have changed to
python3 and changed from
127.0.0.1 to
self.webhook_host.
@Rik60 - You should find the devices under the Devices tab. If Domoticz can not create the devices the error message is "Unit creation failed, Domoticz settings prevent accepting new devices."
The logs you have posted is the complete log from the plugin?
You should see something like this:

Thanks.
I have update the plugin and changed some setting in the camera. It seems to work now, there is one device created, a motion sensor (switch). How many devices should be created, just one or 1 switch motion (motion), 1 switch motion (person) and 1 switch doorbell?
Thanks for your help
