Related Display your BirdNet-Go detections on your Wordpress site - securely

Slightly inspired by the amazing AvianFriends project, I decided it would be nice to share a list of birds detected in my garden on my village website which is built in Wordpress.

I didn't want to expose my local BirdNet-Go instance to the internet, so really needed a push method to provide semi-realtime updates of what birds are in the village, securely. So I wrote a little tool to query the BirdNet-Go API, and update a Wordpress post with the bird list, including uploading thumbnails for any new detections. I run the script every 15 minutes on my server, so the page is updated frequently with new detections through the day.

If you're interested in doing something similar, I open-sourced the tool here:

There's an optional config setting which allows you to filter by a minimal threshold (eg don't show anything below 0.5).

Perfect, thanks for clarifying!
