Project description

Project flashcam

FLASk powered Hybrid webCAM

IN DEVELOPMENT

Why

Because any idea can be implemented in the code without a dependence on a closed source. And there are few ideas implemented by now.

Start

Production web interface:

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin
export DISPLAY=:0
killall -9 gunicorn
$( sleep 5;flashcam ask;)&
flashcamg

Just run on local network, force a port 8000

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin
flashcam flask -n 8000 # -p  00.0-usb-0:1.3:1.0

Select a camera

If there are two or more connected, try flashcam ls and select a proper IDpath like flashcam flask -p 00.0-usb-0:1.3:1.0.

It is possible to run with two cameras, but with local network mode and pay attention to MJPG pixelformat and using different ports.

When config is already fine-tuned for something else

Deactivate blur, accumulate, threshold, telegram, set basic resolution, another port:

flashcam flask -p clock -a 10 -b 3  -r 640x480 -n 5000 -j False -t 0 -a 0 -b 1

Config

Located at $HOME/.config.flashcam/cfg.conf it allows to setup basically everything.

A lot of options is possible to set and override from commandline.

Basic scenarios

Just use

Probably the option 'PIXELFORMAT':'MJPG' to read physical camera as mjpg is fine.

High quality

When trying e.g. for astrophotography, you may prefer 'PIXELFORMAT':'YUYV' to read camera without artifacts. While it works for 640x480, this may not be possible for higher resolution.

Motion detection

Technical details

  • web.py module is the one that is called by gunicorn and provides the interface. See frames(), where Camera() class (defined in realcamera.py) is called first.

Usage

See README.howto.org
