ONVIF Products Directory

This project is a comprehensive ONVIF data aggregation and management suite, designed to help developers explore, analyze, and process ONVIF-compliant product information from hundreds of manufacturers worldwide. It provides a unified structure for device, client, and company data, making it easier to perform research, build integrations, and generate statistics for ONVIF ecosystem analysis.

This directory contains ONVIF product data imported and organized by company. Data is sourced from JSON and ONVIF API (https://www.onvif.org), then stored in a structured folder hierarchy.

Directory Structures

Important

The folders companies/, databases/json/, and databases/mysql/ are not included in the repository. Developers must run the provided scripts to generate these directories and their contents locally.

products/

├── companies/

Databases

Below is the structure of the databases directory, including the contents and their descriptions:

Folder	Files	Description
json/	companies.json products.json	JSON exports for all company and product data (arrays preserved)
mysql/	companies.sql products.sql	MySQL dump files with CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements
sqlite/	companies.db products.db	SQLite databases for company and product data
(root)	onvif_data.json	Main JSON file containing all ONVIF meta data

Device Testing

The device-test/ directory contains scripts, data, and documentation related to ONVIF device testing. This folder is used to store test results, test configurations, and references for validating ONVIF compatibility across various products. Users can add test results, logs, or custom test scripts as needed to support device verification and analysis processes.

Scripts

The scripts directory provides a practical workflow for ONVIF data management, from initial data retrieval to final reporting:

1. import_products_to_json.py – Fetches and saves ONVIF product and company data from JSON sources and the ONVIF API. Data is stored in a Windows-safe folder structure and normalized for database import.

2. import_products_to_db.py – Imports the JSON data generated by the previous script into SQLite databases (.db), and also exports to MySQL (.sql) and global JSON formats. This script ensures data type conversion and Windows file/folder name compatibility.

3. update_readme.py – Analyzes the database contents and automatically updates the README with the latest product statistics and top company rankings. Documentation is always synchronized with the actual data.

4. shorten_filenames.py – Scans all files in products/companies and shortens filenames (not folders) so that the total path does not exceed 240 characters. Filenames are trimmed from the end, with the extension preserved, to prevent Windows/Git errors caused by long paths.

Main workflow:

# 1. Fetch and normalize ONVIF data
python import_products_to_json.py

# 2. Import data into the database
python import_products_to_db.py

# 3. Update documentation and statistics
python update_readme.py

# 4. (Optional) Shorten filenames to ensure safe paths
python shorten_filenames.py
