Request: Motion Event in Region Triggers Custom URL #15

Open ghost opened 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

Is it possible to have http triggers? That is notion is detected it opens an custom url?

The reason I ask is that I would like it to have it included in my home automation. Such that I can send myself a message when a motion happens (in a region).

The other reason is I would like to use the motion detection with regions to detect walk direction and zone (= room or part of room) occupation. And of course record everything.

It's a todo I am planning on because I have in mind being able to do motion tracking with servos. I'm planning to have a real time status file or pipe of the motion event in progress updated with position, magnitude and direction of each detection as it happens. This will be something a motion begin script can monitor throughout a motion event and take action on as the event is in progress.

Right now all you can do is a post processing of the event because the file with the information may not be flushed until the event ends. You can get a csv file of the motion event by enabling motion_stats in pikrellcam.conf and the file will be written alongside the video in the videos directory. But this is something for a motion end script to look at so is probably not what you wanted.

That would be very very great! The position, magnitude and direction of each detection will be most helpful in fine-tuning walk direction! That would be awesome! But just a trigger when motion is triggered in a region (& starts recording) would be just fine.

The new /run/pikrellcam/motion-events is awesome, thank you for that! I altered a bit your motion-send-alarm2 script and came up with this: region.txt

It can call a different http request for each region. I'm planning on working on this further to have it more integrated in my Domoticz and notification system.

edit: sorry, had to upload as txt. Don't know how to post code in a comment.
