[libcamera-devel] [RFC v3 0/5] Python bindings

[Tomi Valkeinen]

Hi,

Third RFC of the python bindings. I believe it's over a year since the
last version, and I've been tinkering with the bindings every now and
then.

This version includes cam.py, which mimics 'cam' tool. The idea is not
to try to replace 'cam', but to test the bindings in a real use case,
rather than artificial tests.

There are a few clear items that should be done to make this more
usable:

- Fix the ControlValue handling, as arrays are not handled at all.
  Possibly other types are not handled correctly.
- Add ControlList parameter to Camera.start()
- Add Transform
