well, maybe they don’t LIKE ME, LIKE ME.. but they validated Fauie Technology, LLC. I can finally complete the registration for the Follow Me app! I’ll start to push this heavier once the application is published.
For day one, compatibility will be a PTZ Optics camera that does control over IP as well as an Amcrest 1080P POE camera with HTTP controls.
This allows a top end and a low end camera to be controlled by the same application. More information to come!

While building my “Follow Me” application, I got to learn a new programming language in quite a while. Swift 4 is new to me. I’m a super huge fan of Python. I’ve done Java for about 20 years professionally. This was the first time it took me a ‘while’ to understand some things. It also could be since it’s a non-web based UI application. I mean, I’m used to a ‘main’ function that kicks off everything. Even building a python UI, I started with a __main__ function. This one, I don’t. I get some sort of storyboard with a first responder. Alright, I’m rambling.
One of the challenges I had was finding examples for Mac OS based (OSX) applications. EVERYTHING seemed to be build for iOS. I get it. iOS is super duper more popular than Mac OS/OSX, but, I worked through it.
Thankfully, switching classes that start with UI to NS made a lot of the examples work!

It’s turning out to be closer to 90, but, I figure if you remove all the whitespace then it’ll be sixty minutes.
I’m going to start pushing out a ton of content on integrating different open source technologies. In order for me to feel comfortable doing so, I wanted to teach YOU about Python. There is no language that is as versatile as Python 3 when it comes to integrating data and applications. REST, JSON, HTTP, Databases etc are just EASY.
‘import something’
and it’ll do something. seriously easy
I’ve completed 3 of the 4 videos in my Python 3 course. This is free. All I ask is you like and follow me here and on the Youtube. It’s all about content creation!
This will be the base knowledge required for all of the future videos I do. Once it’s done, I can reference it all over the place! Below is the playlist:
I’m working on a metrobus based project, and was curious how to define a flexible callback method that had a required parameter, and other keyword arguments. I have used *args and **kwargs before, but wanted to really experiment on what I could do with them. For metrobus, I’m only going to ‘require’ a ‘message’ parameter (single parameter callback function), but, I’ll have to use **kwargs on my declaration just so I can be a little more picky about what I receive each time. Check out some experimentation:
