Legacy Streamer Retirement

The TCP/HTTP streamer stack has been retired from sense-core. The current live capture paths are gst, gst-local, and gst-local-v2, and dataset replay is the supported way to revisit recorded data.

Retired entrypoints

These commands still exist in the tree as explicit retirement shims and raise a runtime error that points back to this page:

  • s6 data collect (src/s6/app/data/collect.py)

  • s6 utils sampler (src/s6/app/utils/sampler.py)

  • s6.utils.camera_identifier.main (src/s6/utils/camera_identifier.py)

Retired s6 track modes

The following legacy s6 track inputs are no longer supported:

  • network

  • database-backed replay via db:...

The supported s6 track inputs are now:

  • gst

  • gst-local

  • gst-local-v2

  • a dataset directory path, with optional --repeat and --realtime-playback

Notes

  • s6 monitor is no longer part of the retired streamer stack; it is a live gst-only viewer backed by platform.gstreamer in the pipeline config.

  • The C++ streamer client module and its old tests are gone from the current source tree.
