2 years ago Hi.
To work with more than one camera, just follow the example file where you can see 2 cameras: reolink_cam_1 and onvif_cam_1. You can add as many as you want keeping the same indentation.
cameras:
cam_1:
host: 192.168.4.1
...
cam_2:
host: 192.168.4.2
...
cam_3:
host: 192.168.4.3
...To run the docker container on a single command, you need to mount the config file as volume, instead of the directory.
$ docker run -v "/home/array81/cam2mqtt/config.yml:/config.yml" acasal/cam2mqtt
You can simplify the command autodetecting the current directory.
$ docker run -v "${PWD}/config.dev.yml:/config.yml" acasal/cam2mqtt
Keep in mind that running a container like this will keep the container created once the process is finished. Just add --rm to remove the container once the process is finished.
$ docker run --rm -v "${PWD}/config.dev.yml:/config.yml" acasal/cam2mqtt
I recommend to use docker-compose because it helps with most of the inconveniencies of running docker containers through command line.

Is possible have information about how install and configure it to works with more that one camera?
I have installed the docker image and create a config.yml file but when I try to run
docker run -v /home/array81/cam2mqtt:/config acasal/cam2mqttI get error about config file not found but the config.yml is inside /home/array81/cam2mqtt folder
