On the server side implement email sending to the user if detection has occurred on the camera. User should get the following info:

  • date and time when did the detection occurred
  • picture in which the face was detected

Send the email to your own email address or make a new email address for this purpose.

Started implementing mail notifications.

  • Tested sending via local SMTP server -> local server did detect that e-mail has been sent, but the receiver did not receive the message.
  • Used gmail's SMTP server (smtp.gmail.com:587)
    • Opened a new gmail account with the address sissurvailance@gmail.com (a disaster of a name)
    • Started sending emails from the created email address - this works, see image attached

For that reason, EmailSender class was created with send_email(receiver_mail) method that writes the image from the camera data to the /tmp folder, sets the attachment of the mail and sends it to the receiver.

#12 Started implementing email notifications

EmailSender class was created which sends the image to the given receiver. The class constructor receives the camera number and data from the camera in byte format, saves the image to temp folder and sends an email with the image as attachment.
Until a better solution is found, the email is sent from newly created gmail account and through gmail's SMTP server.
