This functionality has been available in https://github.com/felipecrs/hass-expose-camera-stream-source for a while now, and it has received plenty of good feedback. It seems that several people rely on it to import their cameras from Home Assistant to go2rtc.
I believe it's time to upstream the work now, so maybe it will be easier for people to find it and use it.
I'm adding the same functionality but exposed through a different API endpoint (
/api/webrtc/camera_stream_source
). If you believe there is a better name for it, I'd be happy to change it.Naturally, the next step would be to refactor the
hass
module in go2rtc to use this new endpoint instead of the current approach of reading the Home Assistant.storage
files, which should enable more users to import their cameras from Home Assistant to go2rtc.Not only that, the current module only allows add-on users to import their cameras. The new approach would allow people running go2rtc from anywhere to import their cameras (provided we need to handle credentials).
What do you think?
