# gphoto2-web [](https://github.com/Sija/gphoto2-web/actions/workflows/ci.yml) [](https://github.com/Sija/gphoto2-web/blob/master/LICENSE)
REST web API for the [libgphoto2](http://www.gphoto.org/) library. You can use it to take pictures, previews (handy for implementing poor man's liveview feature), control/obtain various camera settings, and access connected camera's filesystem - all via JSON-based requests.
## Installation
- After cloning the repo you need to call `shards install` in order to obtain needed dependencies
- Next, execute `shards build` (possibly with `--production` flag) to build the binary
- You're ready to go! It's as easy as running `./bin/server` and checking the http://localhost:3000/cameras for list of detected cameras
- Passing `SENTRY_DSN` env var while building/running will provide you with error reporting
## Usage

- `GET /cameras/:id/config`
Parameters:
| name | value | description |
| ------ | ------ | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `flat` | `true` | Returns one-dimensional configuration map, keyed by widget name |
- `PATCH /cameras/:id/config`
Example request:
```sh
curl \
-X PATCH \
-H "Accept: application/json" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"whitebalance": "Automatic", "iso": 800, "f-number": "f/4.5"}' \
"http://localhost:3000/cameras/5a337150-30ba-40fd-adc2-b9ffacdad188/config"
```
#### `/cameras/:id/config/:widget`
- `GET /cameras/:id/config/:widget`
- `PATCH /cameras/:id/config/:widget`
Example request:
```sh
curl \
-X PATCH \
-H "Accept: application/json" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"value": "Automatic"}' \

```
#### `/cameras/:id/fs`
- `GET /cameras/:id/fs`
- `GET /cameras/:id/fs/*path`
- `DELETE /cameras/:id/fs/*path`
#### `/cameras/:id/blob`
- `GET /cameras/:id/blob/*filepath`
Parameters:
| name | value | description |
| ---------- | ----------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `download` | `true` | Makes the browser download the image instead of displaying it |
| `format` | `jpeg` / `webp` / `avif` / `png` / `auto` | Returns the image in a given format, `auto` chooses between `avif`, `webp` and `jpeg` (in that order), depending on the browser support |
| `width` | *integer* | Returns the image scaled down to the given width |
| `height` | *integer* | Returns the image scaled down to the given height |
- `DELETE /cameras/:id/blob/*filepath`
#### `/cameras/:id/zip`
- `GET /cameras/:id/zip`
- `GET /cameras/:id/zip/*path`
## Development
- Pass `DEBUG=1` in `shards build` step to compile-in the debug support. Afterwards you can use it by passing `DEBUG=1` env variable when running the server (`DEBUG=1 ./bin/server`)
