Wrong path in %f variable when running a command #1229

Open Dinth opened 5 years ago

Dinth commented 5 years ago

My media files are being saved to the following location: /media/CCTV/Back_garden_left/ I have set up "run a command" option when saving files to submit a message with file location to MQTT server: mosquitto_pub -h 10.10.1.5 -p 1884 -u user -P pass -t cameras/Back_garden_left/motion_filename -m "%f" But for some reason the server gets the folliwing message: /media/motioneye_10_10_1_6_cctv_cctv/Back_garden_left/2019-04-11/07-10-37.jpg instead of: /media/CCTV/Back_garden_left/2019-04-11/07-10-37.jpg So it seems that %f in "Run a command" replaces "CCTV" with "motioneye_10_10_1_6_cctv_cctv" on my system.

Hi @Dinth

Have you solved?

I'm trying to make same thing but in my MQTT message I get %f instead of the filename.

This is my config

and this is my python file sala_file.py

mosquitto_pub -h MYIP -u username -P Password -t topic/Sala/file -m "%f"

Any suggestion?

Thanks

Hi. I think that you're doing it completely wrong.

  1. Your "sala_file.py" is not a python script at all.
  2. You have put %f in the script instead of Command field.

Just insert "mosquitto_pub -h MYIP -u username -P Password -t topic/Sala/file -m "%f"" in your command field instead of sala_file.py and see if it works.

Thanks!

I'm getting with the correct folder

/share/motioneye/Camera5/2019-05-23/20-42-21.jpg

I'm using MotionEye as Home Assistant addon and this is the version

Is it the same you're using?
