The logic of the app
- The app takes a default webcam from the machine where it's running
- When the user preses a button the application does the following:
- Takes screenshot from webcam
- Tries to find all users in HikVision, sort them and finds the latest user (with maximum employee number)
- Creates a user with
max employee number + 6code - Uploads the photo from webcam
- The app can show an error when:
- HikVision does not recognize face on the image - the user has to try again
- Some unexpected error (network issue, bug in application, etc)
The app logs everything in file /logs/hikvision-user-management.log, this file is mandatory for issue investigation
