Getting camera images from esp32cam with esphome and python

esphome_get_camera_image.py

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import aioesphomeapi
import asyncio

async def main():
    loop = asyncio.get_running_loop()
    cli = aioesphomeapi.APIClient(loop, "HOST-OR-IP", 6053, "API-PASSWORD-OR_EMPTY")

    await cli.connect(login=True)

    def cb(state):
        if type(state) == aioesphomeapi.CameraState:
            try:
                with open('out/x.jpg','wb') as out:
                    out.write(state.image)
                print("Image written")
            except Exception as e:
                print(e)

    await cli.subscribe_states(cb)

    l = await cli.list_entities_services()
    print(l)

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
try:
    asyncio.ensure_future(main())
    loop.run_forever()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    pass
finally:
    loop.close()

This is no longer working and needs some updates

This is no longer working and needs some updates

The member of CameraState in which to find the image is called data, not image. If you write

    def cb(state):
        if isinstance(state, aioesphomeapi.CameraState):
        try:
            with open('out/x.jpg', 'wb') as out:
                out.write(state.data)
            print("Image written")
        except Exception as e:
            print(e)

it should work

subscribe_states is no longer async so await should be removed from Line 21
