Pynopticon
Project description
Pynopticon
Pynopticon is a video recording utility that saves the last n
frames before an interesting event to disk. This is useful if you just want to record the frames leading up to an interesting event.
import time
from pynopticon import Pynopticon
p = Pynopticon(record_frames=100)
p.start()
time.sleep(10)
p.save()
Optionally, you can upload the video to YouTube. This requires a client_secrets.json
file, see instructions here.
import time
from pynopticon import Pynopticon, get_authenticated_service
youtube = get_authenticated_service(client_secrets_file="./client_secrets.json")
p = Pynopticon(record_frames=100, youtube=youtube)
p.start()
time.sleep(10)
p.save(upload=True, title="My Video", description="My Description")
There is also a server that exposes an http api, in case if you want to run Pynopticon on an external device.
# without upload:
python -m pynopticon
# with upload:
CLIENT_SECRETS_FILE="client_secrets.json" python -m pynopticon
