Twarner491 65ac7efef4 Fix atlas-card click + wire live audio + verify pipeline
- Add hidden admin-screen stub to index.html. The live JS calls
  adminEl.setAttribute() on every hashchange (via openAdmin/closeAdmin);
  with the element missing those threw a null-ref that killed
  syncRouter mid-flight, so atlas card clicks set the hash but never
  opened the detail modal. Stub is empty - menu items navigate to
  BirdNET-Pi's stock pages instead of triggering in-app admin.

- Point the live-audio Audio() at /stream (BirdNET-Pi's existing
  icecast reverse-proxy from install_services.sh:189) instead of the
  worker's /birdnet/stream. The drawer's live-audio button now plays
  real BirdNET-Pi audio on local installs.

Verified end-to-end in Docker container:
- Landing collage: 4 tiles render from seeded DB
- Atlas click: detail modal opens with image + sci/common name
- Menu drawer: opens, shows 4 items (no password in local mode)
- Auto-refresh: INSERTed Bubo virginianus into birds.db, forced
  refresh via window picker re-click, tile count 4→5 with the new
  species appearing in the collage.

BOM

Qty Description Price Link
1 Raspberry Pi (4B / 5 / Zero 2W) ~$35-80 Raspberry Pi
1 Micro SD Card (≥32 GB) ~$10 Amazon
1 USB lavalier microphone $16.95 Amazon
1 Pi power supply ~$10 -

Optional: a Gemini API key to restyle illustrations, an eBird API key to filter species by region.


1. Flash the SD card

Use Raspberry Pi Imager. Pick Raspberry Pi OS Lite (64-bit). In the customisation dialog set:

  • Username
  • WiFi SSID + password
  • Hostname: birdnet
  • Enable SSH with password auth

Plug the USB mic into the Pi. Place the capsule in a window or mount it outside. Boot.


2. Run the installer

ssh <your-username>@birdnet.local
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Twarner491/AvianVisitors/avian-visitors/newinstaller.sh | bash

Clones this fork, installs BirdNET-Pi, symlinks the AvianVisitors overlay into the Caddy web root. Takes 20-40 minutes. Reboots when done.

Collage: http://birdnet.local/avian/. Stock BirdNET-Pi UI: http://birdnet.local/.


3. (Optional) Restyle the illustrations

The repo ships with 450 bundled illustrations. To restyle or add region-specific species:

export GEMINI_API_KEY='your-key'

# Re-render every species in BirdNET-Pi's model:
python3 ~/BirdNET-Pi/avian/scripts/pregen.py --labels ~/BirdNET-Pi/model/labels.txt --force

# Or filter to species observed in your eBird region:
export EBIRD_API_KEY='your-key'
python3 ~/BirdNET-Pi/avian/scripts/pregen.py \
  --labels ~/BirdNET-Pi/model/labels.txt \
  --ebird-region US-CA

Style lives in avian/scripts/prompt.template.md. Edit, re-run with --force.


4. (Optional) Forward off your LAN

See avian/forwarding/ for three independent recipes:

  • Cloudflare Tunnel for a public HTTPS URL.
  • Home Assistant REST sensor that exposes the latest detection.
  • MQTT bridge that publishes every new detection.
