Blinking an LED with the Eagle Eye API

EE-blinker for Eagle Eye Networks Poll Stream

This is a Node.js client that follows the Eagle Eye Networks API. It listens for new motion events and then toggles an LED. This is the basis for our real-time feed.

Lifecycle of the app

The following steps need to be performed in order, but any call can be made once user is logged-in.

• Login (step 1)
• Login (step 2)
• Current user's information is returned by Login (step 2)
• Get device list
• Subscribe to poll stream
• Get subsequent events from poll stream

Installation

• install Node.js
• run npm install
• run npm start
• go to http://localhost:3000

Extras

Checkout out the facedetection branch if you want to try something different with the previews. It will show the image in grayscale if it doesn't detect a face. Not really useful, but interesting example of using node-opencv

Configure

Edit config.js and replace 'your_username', 'your_password', and 'your_api_key' with your username, password, and api key.

    module.exports = {
        // credentials for the app to use
        'username': 'your_username',
        'password': 'your_password',
        'api_key': 'your_api_key',

        // if you only want a subset of the cameras, put the ESNs here,
        // empty means show all
        'filter_cameras': [
            "camera_esn"
        ],

        // what serial port should be connect to
        'serial_port': '/dev/cu.usbmodem14101',

        // where to save the auth file
        'path_to_saved_cookie': './cookie'
