INDI Library v2.0.7 is Released (01 Apr 2024)

Bi-monthly release with minor bug fixes and improvements

New All Sky camera management software: indi-allsky

Just WOW! This is getting better and better, I must try this in the observatory. Got a couple of wide angle cameras perfect for this purpose. Awesome work Aaron, this is shaping up to be a fantastic INDI project.

Hello Jasem,
Have you an idea about my problem of installation ? See previous message.
Thank you,

I did, I checked the script and it needs modifications to work with StellarMate. I'll take a look at it later.

It looks like my setup.sh script did not complete successfully.

I have never run StellarMate, so I am not sure what interactions there may be.  I seem to remember from other posts that StellarMate may use lighttpd where I use Apache.  I do not have a hard requirement for using Apache, it is just one I am most familiar with.

Let me do some research.

No lighthttp, just nodejs running on port 3000, but port 80 is forwarded to 3000 by default.

I have added a new script to the repository to build indi from source.  The script is based on Ansible and takes care of all of the package dependencies and compile options for indi.

I have tested it on Raspbian 10 (armv7l), Ubuntu 20.04 (x86_64), and Debian 11 (x86_64).  In the next week or so, I hope to have it tested on Raspbian 11, both armv7l and arm64.

I would still prefer to rely on Astroberry for indi as it just easier and faster, but it is nice to have the option to fully bootstrap the camera without a 3rd party repository.

I have fully tested my INDI build script against Raspbian 11, both 32-bit (armv6l) and 64-bit (aarch64).  The build script takes about 50 minutes to compile indi and all of the 3rd party drivers on Raspberry Pi 4 hardware.

I have also integrated support for running indi-allsky on Astroberry Server.  Astroberry uses nginx, so I use that instead of Apache when Astroberry is detected.

Hello
I have just discovered your project, and I am very happy, because I thought about this idea for a while and I had already posted something about it to know if it was possible to make a cloud detection with camera.
But, I warn everyone right away I just had the idea, because programming is really not my cup of tea.

I was thinking of having this system next to a telescope and detecting clouds that would pass in front of the target that you are taking pictures of.

Because a light cloud veil that lets stars through is already detectable with a weatherradio IR sensor.

Now can ksatrs interpret your star readings and say that as soon as there is 30% (example) less stars it means that there are clouds?

See you soon
Christophe

I have yet to do something with the sky brightness (jSQM) information or the star counts other than display them in the web interface. Of course, it would be possible to do things like "send notifications" but I am not sure what would be very useful here. Kstars/EKOS is not really designed for receiving information.

I have considered the possibility of adding MQTT message publishing. Images, brightness, star counts would all easily be published to an MQTT broker. There are plenty of MQTT dashboard clients for Android and iOS that could consume and display that data.

Hello
I wanted to install indi-allsky on my tinkerboard to see how it works.
The problem is that I have an error about python, so since I'm not too comfortable with linux and I don't want to do anything stupid, I'm asking you what I should do to fix it.
I would like to know what command line I should use to install just what I need.

Thank you very much for your help
Christophe
