Newbie on GLADYS

Presentations

Hello everyone,

First of all, congratulations on the work on GLADYS.
I looked at the project a loooong time ago.
I, who dreamed of having my Jarvis at home. :wink:
I see that Gladys has changed a lot.
I finally decide to venture into home automation.
I have tested several systems (HA, etc..).
Now I’m starting with Mademoiselle.
Several things to integrate :wink:
TPLINK
ZIGBEE
CAMERA
SENSOR

Installation on RPI4 4go: NICKEL
TP LINK integration: NICKEL
Integration Zigbee conbee2 key: zigbee2mqtt FAILURE :sleepy:
IP Camera integration: FAILURE :sleepy:

For Zigbee, the key is detected on the USB3 port, the mqtt launch is ok but not the rest.
For the IP camera, the rsp stream is good (test in VLC ok) but not in Gladys.

If you have any tips for me to keep digging?

Top job for the interface which I find superb!
I like the user_friendly side that could make my sweetheart switch to using GLADYS :joy:

Congratulations to the community and see you soon to read and exchange about this beautiful open source project.

..Manu..

Hello

The conbee is in experimental support by zigbee2mqtt

3

Hello, welcome!

Oh strange, do you get an error when you test the stream?

If you want to check Gladys’s logs, it’s:

docker logs gladys

4

Hello and thank you for the reply.
Where should we modify this file?
I assume in the command line but I’m a beginner.
Via SSH?

5

Hello and thank you for your response.

Same as before, where should I enter this command or should I access it through a file manager?

Thank you

To connect via SSH, you need Putty.
You need to enter your IP address and then connect
The original username is pi and the password is raspberry
After that, you will be able to see Pierre Gilles’ command.

7

If I’m not mistaken, on W10, there is a native tool for SSH

Oops, sorry, I assumed you knew your way around since your message sounded like an expert :slight_smile:

First of all, Gladys rarely asks you to use the command line, except for debugging when there are compatibility issues.

In this case, it will indeed be easier to see the return of your camera in the logs.

For SSH, it depends on which platform you are using. I recommend this tutorial:

Se connecter en SSH Ă  son Raspberry Pi sous Raspbian - Raspberry Pi France!

Skip steps 1 and 2, and do step 3 if you are on Windows or step 4 if you are on MacOS/Linux.

Once you are connected via SSH to the Pi, you can type:

docker logs gladys

You will see the Gladys logs.

Your feedback is interesting, I think it would be great to have the camera error message in the UI instead of having to ask every time to check the logs, which is really not user-friendly. I have created a development on our side to add this:

Ok for PuTTY, I use it for my other Raspberry Pis and my Debian HBLINK server
I am currently at work (shhh) and I will do the log return as soon as I get back home.

  • Do you want me to create another post for the CAMERA return or should I add it to the previous one?
  • Also, for modifying the file to integrate the CONBEE2 in beta, what is the path to find the relevant file?
    Thanks and bravo for your reactivity on the forum! :scream:
10

It’s in the topic I linked above

11

You can add it to this one :slight_smile:

12

Oops, my bad.
On the phone, I switched too quickly.
On the PC screen at work, I can see the screenshot indeed.
Thanks again

13

ok, I got it.
I will do it.

14

The command generates a huge log!
Which section should I look at?
EDIT:
Could it be this?

The best thing to do is to perform a camera image test, and then check the logs right after :slight_smile:

We need to see a specific error, otherwise it doesn’t help!

16

Okay, so it is indeed the screenshot that I put in the previous post.

17

What kind of IP camera is it?
What did you configure in Gladys?

18

It’s a victory 540.
I was in the camera addition and I put the rsp stream (the same as for VLC)

19

Hi, it’s an RTSP stream and not RSP :wink:

I also had camera issues and Pierre-Gilles helped me out, click on the link I put right below.

Personally, it allowed me to see that my camera was already taken by another software « busy Â» even though I had stopped and deleted it.

Yes! For information as I said in this message, this info will be added to the interface in the next Gladys release. It’s really a temporary solution for now.
