Hello there!
Recently I upgraded my home security surveilance to Dahua cameras. What I needed is to detect movement and do some home automation, so I wrote AppDaemon APP which polls Dahua camera events and translates it to MQTT messages. If you’re interested, feel free to use and modify it. You can find it in my repository:
Hi, great stuff: could you tell more - in Hassio can I place it to custom_components folder or need to add appdaemon add-on first? Thanks!
appdaemon apps always need appdaemon. (in your case the addon)
Do I need some required packages (system or python) for that app? I am totally new to appdaemon… configured it well in apps.yaml but log gives me error about pycurl module…
added “pycurl” to appdaemon but it seems extra packages are required…
Could you please list all required packages?
In the same directory as apps.yaml, create file requirements.txt put pycurl, and every other missing module (if any) separated by new line. If you have any issues with runing this app - let me know!
added pycurl to requirements.txt in apps folder
removed pycurl from appdaemon settings (cant add it anyway duу to config-curl error in log)

Could you please look at appdaemon log after restart? You should see lines something about installing pycurl.

appdaemon settings: should I add something here? Tried “pycurl” only - failed (dependences needed?)
{
"log_level": "info",
"system_packages": [],
"python_packages": []
}
What OS your AppDaemon runs in? Is this docker container?
HassOS 2.8
docker… seems I am damned like other hassos users)
you dont add it to appdaemon.yaml (because then AD wont startup anymore)
you need to create a file in the directory apps (or in the config dir, i am not sure which would work) that is called requirements.txt
and that need to contain:
{
"log_level": "info",
"system_packages": [],
"python_packages": ["pycurl"]
}
after that you restart AD and see if anything else is needed (by looking at the log)
and please if you present logs, do it as codeblock, because what you presented now is not really readable
I could not find codeblock - tried to - sorry!
Please check external link in one of my previous message to somebody forum topic - I am getting exact same errors when I add “pycurl” to appdaemon settings. Think it is common HassOS (Hassio) problem…
on top of any forum you find a link how to use codeblocks.
i did read that link and i know most people have trouble activating such things.
it can be done. but you need to do as i said.
you get the error when you dont add pycurl in the right way.
so again:
@Velly Did you get this to work? I’m trying to set it up now. Have the Hass.io AppDaemon add-on so pycurl can be configured in there?
With the following config:
{
"log_level": "info",
"system_packages": [],
"python_packages": [
"pycurl"
]
}
I get this error:

Oops! Something went wrong.
We are so sorry, but something went terribly wrong when
starting or running this add-on.it needs to be done like i suggested in the last 2 postings.
however i think thats only step 1.
its very well possible that pycurl depends on more libs, but that can be found out by reading the logs after restart.
but its probably also case sensitive and i just did a lookup with google and the package is called pycURL
so the requirements.txt needs to be:
{
"log_level": "info",
"system_packages": [],
"python_packages": ["pycURL"]
}
saw your log @xbmcnut
so it seems pip needs to be upgraded somehow.
maybe with
{
"log_level": "info",
"system_packages": [],
"python_packages": ["pip", "pycURL"]
}
or
{
"log_level": "info",
"system_packages": [],
"python_packages": ["--upgrade pip", "pycURL"]
}Thanks! I’ll try that now.

Can I upgrade PIP on HassOS through CLI?
i am in the dark when it comes to hassio and its possibilities.
but commandline probably wont work, because you need to upgrade a docker.
probably you need something like [“pip 19.0.2”]
but i dont know what exactly needs to be used for version dependencies.
