crontab -eand add a line@reboot sleep 50 && sh /etc/init.d/send-snapshot-to-prusaconnect.sh &to the end of that file to run the script on startup.
This script should be modified to run a Python script instead, and that script should listen for a push-button on GPIO to start and stop the camera. Further improvement is to listen for printer status events from Prusa Link to automatically take snapshots when status is Printing. Also send snapshots to an on-prem service that composes time-lapse videos from the snapshots: https://github.com/blog-eivindgl-com/time-lapse-video-service
Raspberry Pi camera module takes snapshots every 5 seconds and sends to Prusa Connect API. Maybe reuse something from the https://github.com/prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware-ESP32-Cam for better functionality.
