[Feature Request]: Use Telegram as the notification platform instead of app notifications about ha_blueprints HOT 48 OPEN

from ha_blueprints.

@pedromrg just made some changes. Note you'll need to set the group again as the input key has changed to notify_telegram_group

from ha_blueprints.

@pedromrg hey mate, sorry about that. I was doing it from my phone and missed an e. I think it's good now.

The second error will always be there. Frigate gives the actual camera entities the device class of camera and it's the only way i can distinguish between things like camera.front and camera.front_person for the camera select input. Home assistant does not consider camera a valid device class, but it still works for the purpose of eliminating all but the real frigate cams from that drop down. I did a pull request a long time ago to add camera as a valid device class and it was rejected.
It's only an error in the schema validation. works fine.

from ha_blueprints.

Okay it's trying to do the normal group notify instead of the telegram one. I'll have to fix something.

from ha_blueprints.

If I send photo + video it just sends the photo indepent from the order.

Thanks, it must just be how telegram does it's thing. might have to make it a choice by the user, e/g if video is not set to none , no photo is sent.

from ha_blueprints.

Wonderful, thank you! I was going to make a ticket for feature request to add Signal (https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/signal_messenger/) support, but with the above, I got it to work in no time! (just put a signal notify entity in 'Telegram Group (Optional)'. Thanks!

                        sequence:
                          - service: "notify.{{ telegram_target }}"
                            data:
                              message: "{{message}}"
                              data:

from ha_blueprints.

Okay thank you. I see the issue with the ID.

from ha_blueprints.

Can you please provide a sample of the required format to send all the things we already send. Links to documentation etc

from ha_blueprints.

Please test the version at that link

from ha_blueprints.

Please test the version at that link

getting: Invalid blueprint: Missing input definition for telegram_group

from ha_blueprints.

some changes. Note you'll need to set the group again as the input key has changed to notify_telegram_group

Thanks for the explanation!

Tested, so I have added the name of the group set on my notify.

Name set on the blueprint test_group

Getting this error when automation is executed:

Stopped because an error was encountered at 27 May 2023 at 00:46:49 (runtime: 0.05 seconds)

What is the name of the telegram service you are using? From Dev tools, services.

from ha_blueprints.

What is the name of the telegram service you are using? From Dev tools, services.

notify.test_group

Tested and working on dev tools

from ha_blueprints.

Can you send me a screenshot of the trace for one of these errored ones. Like of the picture/image version of the trace on the left.

from ha_blueprints.

Sure,

from ha_blueprints.

Just made a change to the condition test. Appreciate you trying it out. I don't have telegram setup

from ha_blueprints.

No worries, mate, I can test it out.
Thanks a lot for the good job.

This is now hitting the correct condition, but it's fetching base_url with https://xxxx.xxx.xx// where does this gets the base URL?
If I set it manually in the blueprint, it's working (photo)

Video not working:

service: notify.{{ telegram_target }}
data:
title: '{{title}}'
message: '{{message}}'
data:
message_tag: '{{ id }}'
photo:
- url: >-
{{base_url}}/api/frigate{{client_id}}/notifications/{{id}}/{{attachment}}.jpg
video:
- url: '{{video}}'

from ha_blueprints.

Okay two questions before I change something.

The IP address when you don't have a baseurl set... Is it you home assistant IP?

For video, do you have the video input set to clip in the automation config?

from ha_blueprints.

My config:

is this what you mean?

When nothing is set, it brings my external URL ending in //

Confirm. clip is selected in the blueprint.

from ha_blueprints.

Just FYI something aI just spotted in HA logs:

Logger: homeassistant.helpers.template
Source: helpers/template.py:237
First occurred: 20:53:56 (2 occurrences)
Last logged: 20:54:54

Template variable warning: 'video' is undefined when rendering '{{video}}'

from ha_blueprints.

Changes that you made are now outputting the correct value for video URL.

Video is not coming to Telegram.

I think that to send video we need to use:

service: telegram_bot.send_video
data:
authentication: digest
target: -54645643
file: /config/test.mp4

from ha_blueprints.

I'm looking forward to seeing this blueprint working with Telegram.

Just sharing here that I've been using the following to send video to Telegram:

- service: notify.telegram_home
  data_template:
    message: (required, but not used)
    data:
      id: "{{ id }}"
      timeout: 100
      video:
      - url: 'https://my.hass.public.host.name/api/frigate/notifications/{{ id }}/clip.mp4'
        caption: "my caption"

And here is my notify.telegram_home confirguraton:

- name: Telegram_home
  platform: telegram
  chat_id: !secret telegram_home_group

Thank you for working on this

from ha_blueprints.

Yeah I think one issue with my current version is you can't do pictures and videos at the same time.

I reversed the order yesterday to see if that might help but haven't tested yet.

from ha_blueprints.

Just did a quick test, same behaviour.

My toughts, maybe this is sending the video but the video is not ready yet so there no file to be sent.... hence nothing arrives.

maybe we need a delay ?!

another theory.

Tested using dev tools, if I send just video it works fine.

If I send photo + video it just sends the photo indepent from the order.

from ha_blueprints.

Thanks for putting this together! Telegram notification works for me with thumbnail.

from ha_blueprints.

In my automation, I'm using a sequence to send the photo first using my notify.telegram_home service . Then a repeat sequence that has the condition below to wait for the event to end before sending the video. I should note that this has broken for me recently and I haven't had time to dig into why

- condition: template
  value_template: "{{ wait.trigger.payload_json['type'] == 'end' }}"

It's basically taken from here: blakeblackshear/frigate#2898

from ha_blueprints.

@joopdo

I got it to work in no time!

Are you saying signal worked with the blueprint or you had to make changes?

from ha_blueprints.

@Ranger2959 can yuu try the latest version in the telegram branch please

from ha_blueprints.

@Ranger2959 can yuu try the latest version in the telegram branch please

Good morning,

I tested this beta version and it does not work, I do not receive any notification from telegram.
My notification service is: notify.telegram, I fill in telegram

Frigate Notifications (0.12.0.1h) Telegram Beta

The origional version of the blueprint works with home assistant app notifications but I am using telegram.

Thanks in advance

The first error might be something but the last two look like you tried to run it manually?

from ha_blueprints.

I did not perform any manual execution. I have these three errors at each trigger following the detection of a presence

from ha_blueprints.

Gotta get some sleep but i've added a baseurl back in (untested). hopefully resolves most of it.

from ha_blueprints.

Thank you and good night, rest well.

PS:

I just tried the Stable version "Branch Telegram" and I only receive the text as the author of this topic.
With the beta version and despite your modifications I receive nothing at all.

THANKS

from ha_blueprints.

It's not processing the event ID which is really odd.

See the double slash before snapshot.jpg.

from ha_blueprints.

Yeah that's what I noticed too, strange...

from ha_blueprints.

Can you turn on debug and post the outputs from that. I apologise for not testing myself right now. Very little time.

There are instructions here https://github.com/SgtBatten/HA_blueprints/blob/main/Frigate%20Camera%20Notifications/Guide%3A%20Debug%20Option.md

from ha_blueprints.

No need to apologize, it's already very nice to do what you do :)
Here is the debug output with the beta version Telegram, I created a new simple automation for clarity.
I don't get anything, not even the text

Thanks in advance.

I just tested the current corrected version [223acd6], there is something new.
I now receive a message and the image, however I no longer receive anything if I choose "clip" or "video for telegram".
And in any case, I don't have the buttons either.

from ha_blueprints.

Great thank you.

So we are back to where we were earlier as we don't seems to be able to send a picture and a video only one.

from ha_blueprints.

I forgot to specify, I do not receive the title of the notification

from ha_blueprints.

Good morning,

I found a BluePrint that works with the Telegram videos, I receive a photo and 2 minutes later I receive a video (there is a delay in the BluePrint)

Can you adapt it to your blueprint because it cannot be personalized and if you were able to add buttons this would be even better.

Bleuprint :
https://pastecode.io/s/7diyrizc
It is in this video that he shares this BluePrint
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZdVYfTzBrw

THANKS

from ha_blueprints.

Can you adapt it to your blueprint

I've tried to adapt it. But flying blind. It will probably error, but if you could give me the errors that would be good.

from ha_blueprints.

thank you, Impossible to load the BluePrint

Sgtbatten/beta_2.yaml could not be loaded

I have these errors

I think this was the debug code so I've changed that.

Please let me know.

Are you now using a telegram chat ID?

from ha_blueprints.

I tested b1e9d17,
I receive the photo but not the video, I use a Telegram ID -1006XXXXXXXXX
