Technical development insights

[Tjeerd Bakker]

Hi,

I'm at the beginning stages of developing a camera control web interface using the Serial Web API. I've used Entangle before and I basically want to implement a small subset of features (camera control - ISO, Shutterspeed, Aperture, taking a picture, and downloading the taken picture) but I'm unsure where to start.

If you could share any insights on the communication protocol or other resources you used to develop Entangle it would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,

Tjeerd Bakker

Entangle doesn't directly get involved in any of the camera communications.
The app merely serves as a graphical user interface, on top of the libgphoto2
library that does all the comms stuff. IOW, the best place to start is to learn
about what libgphoto2 provides in terms of APIs & functionality IMHO. You
can directly experiment via its 'gphoto' command line tool which is a fairly
direct exposure of its APIs to the shell.

With regards,
Daniel
