Implement motion url detection

[fufurax]

Hi,

I want to implement the GET motion url in SH scipts. Is it possible ?

I've try :
curl -i -su login:pass -H "Accept: application/json" -X GET http://192.168.1.110/motion

but the return is not good

HTTP/1.1 200 Ok

Sorry, i'm really not specialist.

Thanks

Hi @fufurax,
Are you sure http://192.168.1.110/motion is returning something when calling it from your browser?
Maybe there's simply nothing more to return because no new motion had been detected.

Hi @Clem-

Nothing is return when call it from the browser. But it's strange because there is new mp4 files generated in record files

The script only detects newer motion detection (for the last minute) : -mmin -1

You may want to update your code with this pull request that intends to improve this motion detection script.

@Clem-

In fact I want to use the motion detection of the camera to trigger events to Domoticz.

I can probably write a script in Domoticz to scan every 30 secondes to detect if motion has detected something but I think it's not the good solution.

Have you implement something like that arroud Yi cam ?

Great idea! I'm also using Domoticz but never take the chance to develop that kind of feature.

You could simply follow my previous link to the pull request and make a GET request to Domoticz instead of POST for a notification.
See also Domoticz API in order to know which request to make depending on the event you want to trigger.

If you need further help with that feel free to ask.

Hello. The kernel in this firmware supports inotify. I was able to compile inotifywait and use it to watch for new recordings and trigger an http endpoint using curl. Maybe you will find this helpful.

case "$FILE" in
.tmp)
# Do stuff
