basic setup like hostname, enable ssh, wifi, etc., all done with the raspberry pi imager so i didn't have to do them
physically installed camera module
installed nginx
installed vim
made nginx point to telescopium.local so i can actually display the stuff from it
android can't connect to mdns addresses such as telescopium.local
made some folders in /var/www/html/ to do stuff
command for outputting a datetime filename: date +%+4Y-%m-%d-%Hh%Mm.jpg
added a listing for autoindexing the folder /var/www/html/stills/ with location /stills/ { autoindex: on; }
made a python script to take a picture, plus a systemd service and timer to take pictures daily! they need to be symlinked into /etc/systemd/system/
finally realized i never did `systemctl enable telescopium.timer --now` so the timer never started which is why my daily task hasn't been running. remedied.
telescopium physical has been installed in its place in the rear window. also i made it so that it prints its current ip address in the webpage.
gonna try and make it so it converts the latest month of images into a gif, at a rate of one week per second? hopefully just using imagemagick.
update: i am deep in the bowels of imagemagick and ffmpeg trying in vain to get this to work
fixed the unrelated issue where it was taking a picture every time the system rebooted. it's because i had the telescopium service enabled in addition to the timer; i disabled the service and made sure only the timer was enabled
