I’m thinking of adding a service so you can just post files for processing too, skip the display unless something interesting is identified in the image
hello, I have this error on running the templete:
message: ‘{% if states.sensor.facebox_detection.state != “unknown” %} {{ states<“sensor.facebox_detection”> }} is at the door {% else %} {% endif %}’
the following error: Error rendering template: TemplateSyntaxError: unexpected ‘end of print statement’
any idea?

Am I doing something wrong? Every time I try to run Facebox, I get the following:
docker run -p 8080:8080 -e "MB_KEY=$MB_KEY" machinebox/facebox
2018/06/07 23:32:54 Number of MB_WORKERS is set to 4

Machine has a quad core CPU and 8GB of ram. Any ideas anyone?
Check you have the latest release of facebox. It appears to be a port/networking problem, so I encourage you to also post on the Machinebox forum
Thanx Rob been short of time lately but will try it out soon!
Well soon was right now 
Got it working in 10 minutes! Event triggered so great job again.
@robmarkcole i’m trying to implement your facebox_python script. I’m running HassIO and i’ve placed it in my python script folder. Where would i place the face folder directory and how can i modify the script to look at the different directory? If its not possible how would I go about setting up a command_line switch within HassIO?
Thanks Rob! Events simplify things so much!
HI @Maaniac haven’t tried myself but the command_line docs should explain, I imagine this will be very simple.
@kingofsnake I’ve a PR to address a current issue with triggering automaitions with facebox events. In the meantime my Github repo has the most current branch of the component so please try that if you have any issues.
Yes the path is in the script, just change that 
@robmarkcole thanks but I would have no idea where to look or what to change 
. I’ll just continue doing it manually i guess.
OK the script must be run from within the folder of images as in the readme https://github.com/robmarkcole/facebox_python
@robmarkcole I read in the hackster.io tutorial you are running Facebox on a upgraded DS216++ with 8GB. I’m trying to get Facebox running on the same machine but run into similar issues as already posted in this thread. See the log below. Did you do anything special to get Facebox up and running on your DS216++?

@Phuturist I just pulled the latest version of facebox, and I am now getting the same error…! Will raise the topic on the Machinebox slack channel

Im no Docker expert, but presume an earlier release can be pulled
Unfortunately Machinebox only seems to maintain the latest tag on Docker hub (https://hub.docker.com/r/machinebox/facebox/tags/). So I would not know how to pull an older version but I’m not docker expert myself as well.
I spoke with them and hopefully they will have a solution soon. In the meantime you could try one of the cloud hosted solutions (DigitalOcean or Google Cloud)
