Run motioneye within kubernetes
This repo contains a couple kubernetes yaml files to stand up a motioneye server.
Configuring motion is more of an art than science. This repo contains my "current" config for a few different inexpensive PoE security cameras, but I'm sure it's not perfect.
Assumptions:
- This config has 4 cameras. If you have more/less, you'll need to modify various parts
- I use an NAS appliance to store the recorded video clips to make it easier to do downstream processing with dhiltgen/video
- All my cameras use a common user/password - if you have different ones on each camera the secret stitching logic in these yaml's wont work
If you want to leverage this in your own environment, the steps I recommend:
- First get
vlcto stream properly from your camera via rtsp (google search for your camera brand/model to try to figure out the magic url, since no camera vendor seems to document this clearly) - Modify the yaml files in this tree to match the number of cameras you have
- Tweak the settings (as needed) until you're able to see captured clips and are happy with the results
