Offsite storage of images

Open trideeindhoven opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

This project looks really nice. I have one concern: if i want to use it as a security device, it is very simple to just take the ESP or the SD card and i will have no footage. Can i upload images as soon as they are taken to e.g. a webserver (POST request) or so? I am assuming the pushover notification (with image) are not triggered for every captured image when someone walks into a room e.g.?

I prefer to have the ESP do this itself and not some other device constantly polling the FTP server on the ESP to see if there are new images.

Hello,

There are three notification methods:

  • pushover as standard
  • customer mqtt
  • web_hook

The last two need to be activated in main.py (uncomment the line), and be configured from the web interface.

It is possible to add your own notification class, taking inspiration from webhook.py, the notification also contains the image.

When you are notified, you can also search the image via FTP, however this is not very efficient and I think not a good idea.

Best regards.
