|
|
|
## 1. Flash the SD card
|
|
|
|
Use [Raspberry Pi Imager](https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/). 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
|
|
|
|
Installer assumes passwordless sudo (Raspberry Pi OS Lite default - if you've tightened it, run `sudo raspi-config` -> *System Options* -> restore the default first).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
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/`. Stock BirdNET-Pi UI: `http://birdnet.local/index.php`. The menu button in the top right opens an admin overlay with settings, system, log, and tool panels.
|
|

## 3. (Optional) Restyle the illustrations
|
|
|
|
The repo ships with 450 bundled illustrations. To restyle or add region-specific species:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
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`](avian/scripts/prompt.template.md). Edit, re-run with `--force`.
|

|
## 4. (Optional) Forward off your LAN
|
|
|
|
See [`avian/forwarding/`](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.
|
