A web application to control cameras supported by gphoto2 and Raspberry Pi. Please note this has been developed using a Nikon D3s.
Raspberry Pi Python 2.7 Bottle 0.10 gphoto2 A compiled C script to reset the USB port - instructions to compile and create the script can be found here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/645/how-do-you-reset-a-usb-device-from-the-command-line
There is no installer as such. Change the settings in camerapi_config.py. Important settings are: usbresetpath - the full path to the compiled C script that you created - don't forget to mark it executable! bottle_staticfilepath - Used by bottle, this the full path to whereever you want to serve static files from. bottle_* - Other bottle specific settings.
Run the application using:
(sudo) python camerapi.py
Note: I run as sudo because I'm serving on port 80 which is restricted on the RPi. I run on port 80 because I'm lazy :)
