Blue Iris camera trigger from smart things

SmartApps & Automations Automation Ideas

Well I sure am late… here it is, remember, this has been modified for me to do a PTZ:

/**

  • Send preset to Blue Iris
  • Trigger Blue Iris in response to SmartThings events
  • https://github.com/aderusha/SmartThings/blob/master/Send-Trigger-to-Blue-Iris.groovy
  • Copyright 2015 aderusha
  • Version 0.0.1 - 2015-12-06 - Initial test release
  •  0.0.2 - 2015-12-06 - Only trigger on "motion" or "open", added more debug logging

  •  0.0.3 - 2015-12-10 - Actually tested this against Blue Iris and made it work.
  • This SmartApp will send selected events to a Blue Iris server on the local network.
  • This requires the Blue Iris web server to allow un-authenticated connections. In
  • settings > Web Server > Advanced > Authentication select “Non-LAN only” (preferred)
  • or “No” to disable authentication altogether.
  • TODO:
    • Add device types
    • Add configurable conditions
