Send picture with xmpp notification

mrwsl · November 19, 2018, 9:59am

I want to get notifications from my 3d printer via home assistant. So far the automation is working great with sending a message when a print has started or stopped.
It would be really nice to send a picture from the webcam as well. Is the xmpp notification capable of doing so? I can’t get it to work.

Here is the automation:

id: ‘1542622228526’
alias: 3D print started
trigger:

entity_id: binary_sensor.octoprint_printing
from: ‘off’
platform: state
to: ‘on’
condition:
action:

data:
photo:
url: http://octopi.local/webcam/?action=snapshot
message: Test plugin
service: notify.example.org

Url need the pic…seems that your URL is like a script that takes a pic. Httupuload work as custom component …downloaded xmpp.py from here:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/5418e0510d898da100ec4b65e6b6e99781760317/homeassistant/components/notify/xmpp.py

Then use httupuload like this:

I replaced the xmpp.py with the one you provided.

This url isn’t going anywhere for me

Are you trying to link me to the xmpp documentation? If so I have xmpp working - only the image sending doesn’t work so far.
