onvif camera + example app service about device-onvif-camera HOT 9 CLOSED

Yes, the camera management app in examples is for 2.x version only. You are running the latest 3.0.0 WIP services from edgex-compose. Simply checkout the levski branch of edgex-compose and run the compose file from that branch.

Last q on the tutorial here - I see the menus have a simulated camera option - Is there a fast way to get something like this going in the documentation?

I couldnt find by searching or in the simple setup / camera demo. What's recommended?

We have used the Happytime Multi ONVIF Server as a simulator for Onvif cameras. The free version out of the box is limited to 2 cameras, and does not integrate as nicely into the system.

Internally we have purchased the source code to it and have modified it to improve some of that compatibility. We currently use it as one of our devices for our automated integration testing.

Awesome, total success! Thanks for the guidance here.

@Einse57 , Issue 1 is because you are using the example Camera App (built for 2.3.0 release) with the latest WIP dev ONVIF camera code for the upcoming 3.0.0 release. Please use the code from the ONVIF camera 2.3.0 tag, which is compatible with the example Camera App, here: https://github.com/edgexfoundry/device-onvif-camera/tree/v2.3.0

from device-onvif-camera.

@Einse57 for issue 2, it we have not completely dockerized the example app yet, so that is why installing Go is required. You can install the latest version here: https://go.dev/doc/install

I removed the newer image that was auto pulled for device-onvif-camera then went back and checked out the v2.3.0 tag from https://github.com/edgexfoundry/device-onvif-camera.git then ran make docker successfully. I see the corresponding dev 0.0.0 image from my build of the onvif camera device service but when I rerun it's still throwing the following - Do I need to make sure all services are v2.3.0? Is there an easy way to do that in the compose framework?

It's working! Checking out the v2.3.0 tag in edgex-compose worked. I had assumed that this was already 2.3.0 since that was the latest tag.

I think where I went wrong was in focusing on the device-onvif-camera repo vs fixing my version mismatch in the compose repo (since the simple tutorial has you pull them vs build them first).

Maybe moving the checkout step of device-onvif-camera could be move later in the guide just before use?

@ajcasagrande can better answer this.
