5. Add extra camera accessories in Home app. The setup code is the same as homebridge.

Config.json Example

{
  "platform": "Nest-cam",
  "access_token": "",
  "ffmpegCodec": "libx264"
}

On Raspberry Pi you might want to use OMX for transcoding as CPU on the board is too slow. In that case, make sure the ffmpeg you installed has h264_omx support and set ffmpegCodec above to h264_omx. There are pre-compiled deb online if you don't want to compile one yourself.

On MacOS you might want to use VideoToolbox hardware acceleration for transcoding. In that case, make sure the ffmpeg you installed has videotoolbox support and set ffmpegCodec to h264_videotoolbox.

How to get Access Token?

You can get access token from your Nest account by running the following command in terminal. If your account does not have 2FA enabled, you should be able to see access_token in the response.

curl -X "POST" "https://home.nest.com/session" \
     -H 'User-Agent: iPhone iPhone OS 11.0 Dropcam/5.14.0 com.nestlabs.jasper.release Darwin' \
     -H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8' \
     --data-urlencode "email=YOUR_NEST_EMAIL" \
     --data-urlencode "password=YOUR_PASSWORD"

If your account has 2FA enabled, after running the command above, you should see a 2fa_token in the response, use that and the code you received from SMS to make the second request. If success, you should see access_token in the response.

curl -X "POST" "https://home.nest.com/api/0.1/2fa/verify_pin" \
     -H 'User-Agent: iPhone iPhone OS 11.0 Dropcam/5.14.0 com.nestlabs.jasper.release Darwin' \
     -H 'Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8' \
     -d $'{"pin": "CODE_FROM_SMS","2fa_token": "TOKEN_FROM_PRIOR_REQUEST"}'
