# ipcamsd
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/ipcamsd)
[](https://github.com/aoephtua/ipcamsd/blob/master/LICENSE)
Node.js command line tool and library for downloading, merging and converting record files of IP cameras.
## Installation
$ npm install -g ipcamsd
## Usage
### General Options
```
Options:
--version output the version number
--host host of ip camera (multiple: true, required)
--firmware firmware of ip camera (multiple: true, default: hi3510)
--username username of ip camera (multiple: true)
--password password of ip camera (multiple: true)
--ssl use secure socket layer (multiple: true, default: false)
--help display help for command
```
### Firmwares
- hi3510 (default)
- reolink
### Commands
Use **[ipcamsd-cmd-generator](https://github.com/aoephtua/ipcamsd-cmd-generator)** to generate commands for ipcamsd.
- [fetch](#fetch)
- [list](#list)
#### fetch
Transfers and converts records of the specified parameters. This is the **default** command.
$ ipcamsd (fetch) --start-date [YYYYMMDD|today|yesterday] --video-filter "setpts=PTS/2" --host [IP...] --username [...] --password [...]
**Note**: `-c copy` is applied to stream if array of video filter is empty. This also achieves the best speed. Add the `setpts` video filter with `PTS/30` to increase video speed up to 30x. Visit [documentation](https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html) of FFmpeg to get more information about conceivable video filter parameters.
Exact time limitation is currently not implemented due to the motion detection of the cameras.
```
Options:
--start-date start date of records
--end-date end date of records
--start-time start time of records
--end-time end time of records
--separate-by-date separate by date (default: false)
--last-minutes last minutes of records till now (start time skipped)
--start-delay start delay in minutes
--target-directory target directory for converted files
--target-file-type target file type used by ffmpeg for conversion
--filename-prefix output filename prefix
--filename output filename (ignored on separations) (default: [])
--video-filter video filter in ffmpeg required format (default: [])
```
#### list
Outputs dates and (first, last) records of specified hosts.
$ ipcamsd list --host [IP...] --username [...] --password [...]
**Note**: The listing of Reolink recordings is currently not supported due to the API restrictions.
