Import Picamera using the
counterfit_shims_picamera
package instead of thepicamera
package, as well as importing theCounterFitConnection
from thecounterfit_shims_grove.counterfit_connection
module:from counterfit_connection import CounterFitConnection import counterfit_shims_picamera

Configure the connection to the CounterFit app. Change the hostname and port to where you are running it:
CounterFitConnection.init('127.0.0.1', 5000)
