Use Raspberry Pi Camera with Prusa Connect

Use Raspberry Pi and Pi Cam for Prusa Connect

I couldn't get the script from p123ad to work on my Pi Zero W 2 with Camera Module 3 (all kinds of ffmpeg errors). There are several built-in tools for working with the camera now, so I tried to figure out if I could use one of those instead.

Behold this version, which uses the built-in libcamera-still tool to actually interact with the camera and save a JPEG. That image is then uploaded to Prusa Connect, same as the original script.

Instructions

  1. Go to the Cameras section at https://connect.prusa3d.com
  2. Add a new camera by clicking "Add new other camera"
