Not really an issue but is there any way you can integrate in notifications when motion is detected?

KhaosT commented 6 years ago

For motion detection related notification, please use https://github.com/KraigM/homebridge-nest

Ok thanks. Can I ask what the benefit or difference is between using this plugin and the other then?

KhaosT commented 6 years ago

This one only provides video stream for Nest Cam and that one only provides motion detection alert.

@KhaosT @adamstirtan

Relying on HomeKit to handle the snapshot of the motion event (homebridge-nest-cam + homebridge-nest) always comes back with a snapshot that is delayed and does not actually show a snapshot of the motion event itself, it gives a snapshot a few seconds after the Nest Motion Event. This issue is a consistent one.

@KhaosT Is there any way we can link the Nest Camera's own img_url or animated_gif_url to supply HomeKit with the correct/accurate snapshot? I hope we can give HomeKit access to the native Nest Cam snapshot, rather than having to rely on HomeKit's "delayed snapshot".
