Description
Camera defined three states [STATE_RECORDING, STATE_STREAMING, STATE_IDLE], but don't have services to allow user change state.
Proposed Solution:
Add abstract set_stateset_mode service to Camera, take entity_id and statemode as parameter. Using different mode const to clarify that shall not directly set state machine, [MODE_RECORDING, MODE_STREAMING, MODE_IDLE]. Each platform should have its own implementation
Alternative Solution:
Add generic turn_on turn_off service to Camera.
- turn_on has
entity_idandstatemodeas parameter (MODE_RECORDINGorMODE_STREAMING) - turn_off only has
entity_id
Approved Solution:
- Adds
supported_featuresupport modeled after the light component. Limit to onlyturn_on/turn_offas a feature. - Add service to turn on/off a camera entity (also modeled after how light component does services)
- Update the demo component to support turn on/off. Do not include other platforms in this PR.
