Yes, I created a script that can configure the network without the app. Msg me directly if you want to test it out. I have not released it yet.

Does the Mi Home app actually do any configuration on the camera beyond initially setting networking setitngs?

@ril3y Would love to test it, but didn't github remove private messaging years ago?

Ha that worked on me but not on your account.

I second the wish to try this. Just got 4 cams home that needs configuring. I would love to not have to use the app at all.
@ril3y Have sent an email to what I presume is your email address from the api.
Looks like someone has already worked this out actually, pretty simple following the instructions in #132
@ril3y the QR code setup would still be a really helpful thing for a lot of users though!
I just put it up here so it just "works" now. It will get you online but your time will be wrong. I didn't really feel like writing up all of the code to set that all right :) Check it out and give it a go. I made a video to show people the "steps". https://codepen.io/ril3y/full/gXyzmO/
I can confirm that the QR generator is working. I just setup a camera in under two minutes. Start cam, press button, scan code, wait 20 sec, insert card, apply hacks, set timezone. Done!
I use motion + motioneye for supervision. Works great!

This issue can now be closed. I've added a wiki entry with instructions on both methods for setting WiFi details without Mi Home.
