zm-tattletale is a multi-platform small python client which connects to a ZoneMinder event server, and creates notifications of varying types to alert the user to new ZoneMinder events.
I pay more attention to my computer than my phone, so I needed a way to maintain my constant paranoid awareness while I was away from my phone (immersed in my computer), so I wrote this.
This software is no good yet. It needs a lot of polish and some TLC. User beware. It'll probably be totally re-written. It got re-written. It's OK; but not great. You get what you pay for.
- Python 3
- ZoneMinder 1.28.107 or greater
- [zmeventserver] (https://github.com/pliablepixels/zmeventserver)
pip install websockets
for sound alert support:
pip install pyglet
TODO
- It's still ignoring SSL certs
- It has no option for what monitors to watch
- No good interface (no one wants to ctrl-c)
- using the dialog window options is blocking, no threading yet.
TODO
thanks to @pliablepixels for teaching me how to use their [zmeventserver] (https://github.com/pliablepixels/zmeventserver)
