do shell script "curl -k -d 'cameraNum=4&aTriggerHuman=0&aTriggerVehicle=0&aTriggerAnimal=0&aTriggerVideo=0&mcTriggerHuman=0&mcTriggerVehicle=0&mcTriggerAnimal=0&mcTriggerVideo=0' https://[username]:[password]@localhost:8001/settings-cameras"

--> "{\"camUpdate\":{\"num\":\"4\",\"name\":\"Bigfork North\"}}

I've tried separating the "a" and "mc" actions into different commands without success.

The command below does succeed at disabling a different camera:

do shell script "curl -k -d 'cameraNum=5&enabled=0' https://[username]:[password]@localhost:8001/settings-cameras"

--> "{\"camUpdate\":{\"num\":\"5\",\"name\":\"Bigfork Living Room\"}}"

What am I missing?

Thanks

I'm using a Hubitat hub to control various bits of home automation equipment and it has a "Maker API" which allows devices to be controlled via simple HTTP requests. I can see that SecuritySpy would be able to interact with the hub using AppleScript to call curl and there are some very useful example scripts in there for relays. Excellent!

However, one issue I can't seem to overcome is what happens when a motion trigger ceases. The use case is simple; when motion is detected on a camera, fire out a HTTP request to turn on a light. When motion ceases, wait a few minutes, then turn the light off. I can get close by using a single script to fire out the ON command, sit in a delay for a 180 seconds and then fire the OFF command. However, this ALWAYS turns off the light after 180 seconds, regardless of whether motion is continuing.

What would be great is a means to turn ON the light when there's a trigger, then to reset a 180 second counter every time that trigger occurs. This way multiple triggers don't lead to multiple HTTP requests and multiple delay instances, all counting down their 180 seconds to fire out their OFF requests. Once motion has stopped there are no more counter resets, so it counts down to 0 and then fires a single OFF request.

Is there a cool function of SecuritySpy I'm missing here that would help, or should I investigate handling this purely through scripting? It feels like a potential feature if it's not already there... ;)

Cheers!

Thanks

However this doesn't work anymore for me and the error "404 File not found"

What do I do wrong?

I see in the forum that AppleScripts are passed arguments about the cause of alert, is the same possible for shell scripts? I would like to pass off vehicle and human detection differently...

Thanks

So, got me thinking. Would there be a way to have some sort of an AppleScript that runs only on on motion triggers that executes, after 30 seconds of initial motion on camera, execute the home position setting on the camera? I know it's not ideal, but I've tried every setting on the camera to get around this auto tracking bug. No joy. So right now, the camera is a fixed position camera which is doing me no good.

I've played around a bit with trying to get a script right, no luck yet. If anyone has any ideas, I would be greatly appreciative.

press ptz 1 >ss1.applescript runs with it

press ptz 2 >ss2.applescript runs with it

etc etc.

preferably a new menu in the ptz controller that lets you check/uncheck if u want it to run with the preset.

:P I don't want to manually open an AppleScript each time like a peasant QQ

thanks

my script to record a movie with the name of the database was

tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced"

set NomDuFilm to cell "nom" of current record of layout "chirurgie conflit"

set counter to cell "compteur film" of current record of layout "chirurgie conflit"

end tell

set nomdufichier to NomDuFilm & counter

tell application "BTV Pro"

launch

start recording as nomdufichier with overwrite

end tell

now with Swift it did change a little bit bur I cannot record with the right name

I know that this is not anymore Start recording but start capture. so this is my script now that does work but just impossible to give not the right name like before

tell application "FileMaker Pro"

set NomDuFilm to cell "nom" of current record of layout "chirurgie conflit"

set counter to cell "compteur film" of current record of layout "chirurgie conflit"

end tell

set nomdufichier to NomDuFilm & counter

tell application "SwiftCapture"

launch

start capture 

end tell

I would like to add: Start capture to file nomdufichier

so, it would give the right name but it does not work.

do you have an idea of the right syntax
