RaspPyTelebot
RaspPyTelebot (RaspberryPi + Python + TelegramBot)
In this tutorial we are going to use TelegramBot with Python Code to connect to RasberryPi Camera and Send us the picture via Telegram.
* Hardware
- Rasberry Pi
- Camera Pi
* Software
- Python 2.7.x
- TelegramBot (You need to have one, We will used its Token in the script)
We going to use short short to control via telegram:
/ap = ping Access Point IP Address (Up/Down)
/ip = get Raspberry Pi IP Address
/pic = take the picture and send us via Telegram
This is the code script sample (Keep these two files in the same folder) :
- telebot.py
- ip_address.sh
======================= telebot.py =========================

content_type, chat_type, chat_id = telepot.glance(msg)
if msg['text'] == '/ap':
ap1='192.168.1.1'
ping_ap1 = pyping.ping(ap1)
bot.sendMessage(chat_id, 'Pleas wait...')
if ping_ap1.ret_code == 0:
print(ap1 + " is up")
bot.sendMessage(chat_id, "Access Point " + ap1 + " Up")
else:

bot.sendMessage(chat_id, "Access Point" + ap1 + " Down")

f.close()

time.sleep(2)
