# motion-onvif-events
A JS CLI tool that attempts to bridge the gap between your ONVIF camera's motion detection and [Motion](https://motion-project.github.io).
Forked from [zmonvif-events](https://github.com/nickw444/zmonvif-events).
## Why?
In a typical Motion installation the server will do video processing to determine which frames have motion. Unfortunately this task is quite CPU intensive.
Fortunately some ONVIF cameras have built in motion detection features, which notify subscribers when an event occurs.
This tool connects to an ONVIF camera and subscribes to these messages. When the motion state changes, it uses Motion's API to arm the selected camera.
Recording triggered using Motion`s Web Control action url. You need to enable [webcontrol options](https://motion-project.github.io/motion_config.html#OptDetail_Webcontrol) in Motion config.
## Install
```bash
npm install -g motion-onvif-events
```
## Usage
```bash
motion-onvif-events --help
usage: motion-onvif-events [-h] -m MOTION_BASE_URL -i MOTION_CAMERA_ID -c HOSTNAME
[-u USERNAME] [-p PASSWORD] [-o PORT]
ONVIF motion detection events bridge to Motion
Optional arguments:
-h, --help Show this help message and exit.
-m MOTION_BASE_URL, --motion-base-url MOTION_BASE_URL
Base URL for the Motion instance (with trailing
slash)
-i MOTION_CAMERA_ID, --motion-camera-id MOTION_CAMERA_ID
The ID of the camera in Motion
-c HOSTNAME, --hostname HOSTNAME
hostname/IP of the ONVIF camera
-u USERNAME, --username USERNAME
username for the ONVIF camera
-p PASSWORD, --password PASSWORD
password for the ONVIF camera
-o PORT, --port PORT
port for the ONVIF camera
```
**Example**
```bash
motion-onvif-events \
--motion-base-url http://my-motion-instance.com:7999/ \
--motion-camera-id 1 \
--hostname 192.168.1.55 \
--username supersecretusername \
--password dontshareme
--port 8899
--timeout 5000
```
