connecting a camera to a device like ESP32, would not show up as a /dev/ on the exporter, so we need to stream over TCP. Rather than copying a lot of code from ustreamer, create a generic video driver to make code sharing easier

Warning

Review limit reached

@bennyz, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in: 11 minutes

Limit details: You’ve used all 2 included reviews currently available under your plan.

You've used all free OSS reviews for now. Wait for the free limit to reset to keep reviewing this public repository.

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds a shared video driver package with HTTP/MJPEG support, snapshot and state APIs, local streaming, documentation, tests, and package registration. The ustreamer driver now uses the shared video interfaces and client functionality.

Adds URL validation, snapshot retrieval, MJPEG frame extraction, state reporting, stream paths, camera tunneling, tests, an exporter example, and documentation.
Video client and local stream server
python/packages/jumpstarter-driver-video/jumpstarter_driver_video/client.py, python/packages/jumpstarter-driver-video/jumpstarter_driver_video/client_test.py
Adds VideoClient, CLI commands, local routes, MJPEG proxying, server lifecycle handling, and tests.

Migrates ustreamer to shared video state, interface, client, and stream-path APIs.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 2d663

The PR adds the generic video driver; the only noted issue is that a chunked-response test fixture uses HTTP/1.0 instead of HTTP/1.1, reducing test fidelity without affecting production behavior. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

Add a local server end-to-end test.

These tests invoke route handlers and mock run_video_server. They do not start the aiohttp server or connect an HTTP client.

Add a test that binds an ephemeral loopback port, requests /snapshot and /stream, and verifies the proxied response through the network stack. As per coding guidelines, “Provide comprehensive package test coverage, prioritizing end-to-end tests that start a server and client; use mocks when system tools, services, or platform compatibility make end-to-end testing impractical.”

Bug: unbounded memory growth in chunked decoder

A buggy or malicious source can declare an enormous chunk size (e.g. FFFFFFFF\r\n), causing the loop at line 73 to buffer ~4GB before yielding anything. The header-reading loop above already has _MAX_HEADER_SIZE protection -- the chunked decoder should have a similar cap on chunk size. Something like 16MB would be generous for MJPEG frames.

Testing gap: deleted ustreamer client tests not replaced by inheritance coverage

The old test file had tests for snapshot, snapshot_bytes, the snapshot CLI command, and the stream CLI command -- all deleted because they moved to VideoClient. But there's no test here verifying that UStreamerClient actually inherits and correctly delegates these through the inheritance chain.

If someone accidentally overrides or breaks one of these methods on UStreamerClient, there's no test to catch it. A simple smoke test would provide a safety net:

def test_ustreamer_inherits_video_client_methods():
    """UStreamerClient must expose the full VideoClient API."""
    assert issubclass(UStreamerClient, VideoClient)
    # snapshot/snapshot_bytes/stream come from VideoClient
    assert UStreamerClient.snapshot is VideoClient.snapshot
    assert UStreamerClient.snapshot_bytes is VideoClient.snapshot_bytes

Testing gap: no integration test for chunked transfer encoding

The FakeCameraHandler uses Python's BaseHTTPRequestHandler which sends responses with Content-Length (no chunking). There's a unit test in client_test.py for the chunked decoder using mocked tunnels, but no integration test connecting HttpVideo to a server that actually uses chunked transfer encoding.

Since the ESP-IDF chunked MJPEG use case is explicitly called out in the PR description and the _iter_body chunked decoder is new non-trivial code, it would be valuable to add a FakeChunkedCameraHandler that sends the MJPEG stream with Transfer-Encoding: chunked framing.

Minor: Host: localhost header sent to remote cameras

The proxy sends Host: localhost regardless of the actual camera hostname. For UStreamer (which connects over a unix socket) this is fine and matches the old behavior. But for HttpVideo, the connect() stream is a raw TCP connection to the camera's real host (e.g. 192.168.1.50), and a virtual-host-aware HTTP server could reject or misroute the request.

Consider having proxy_mjpeg_stream accept an optional host parameter, or having stream_path() return enough context for the client to construct a correct Host header.

Most simple cameras / ESP-IDF servers won't care, so this is low priority.

Video support was tied to uStreamer, which wraps a local device on the
exporter host. A camera attached to the DUT itself, an ESP32 for example serving MJPEG
over its WiFi interface has no device node on the exporter
and so could not be exported at all.

Add jumpstarter-driver-video, following the PowerInterface/FlasherInterface
convention. VideoInterface defines the contract: snapshot(), state(),
stream_path(), and a connect() bytestream carrying HTTP/MJPEG. VideoClient
provides snapshots as PIL images, source state, the local MJPEG proxy server,
and the `j video` CLI. HttpVideo implements the interface for sources
reachable over HTTP: the exporter dials the camera, so clients reach DUTs on
networks they cannot route to themselves.

Signed-off-by: Benny Zlotnik <bzlotnik@redhat.com>
UStreamerClient was already source-agnostic apart from state(): its MJPEG
proxy and CLI only spoke HTTP over the connect tunnel. Implement
VideoInterface on the UStreamer driver and inherit VideoClient, so that code
lives once in jumpstarter-driver-video rather than being duplicated by every
video source.

UStreamerState now extends VideoState, filling online/width/height/fps from
ustreamer's own status document. Generic consumers can therefore read the
common fields from a uStreamer source, while its richer detail stays
available through the unchanged result field, and `j video state` keeps
printing what it printed before.
