Has anybody managed to get Open ALPR local working with hass.io. You can see the component here - https://github.com/home-assistant/core/tree/dev/homeassistant/components/openalpr_local.
The problem is that the binary does not seem to be included.
Thanks,
Matthew
Well, when one follows the instructions a binary can be compiled with ease. That is not the worst part.
The problem starts at that how could one present the binary for home assistant so the integration will find it. If anyone has an idea, let me know.
Well, if one knows how to compile the binary on hass.io perhaps one could share what he or she knows with the forum.
This would have to be built into core and that is almost certainly not going to happen. So the correct way to do this is to build an add-on that is running in it’s own docker container and use that for the processing and establish either a queue for the results or a web service.
So this is what I did. I have it running in its own docker container but in the end I opted for a paid product to do the plate matching. It’s software runs in a docker container and I send requests to it using a web service. I have not built an add-on for it though - that would be sweet if I got that far.
