Start/Stop your DLINK DCS-5222L camera from IFTT or a basic curl request.
I did not want to open my camera to IFTT through any DLink cloud service.
I wanted full controll so I implemented it on my own (reverse engineered).
Here are the current endpoints:
| Endpoint | Description |
|---|---|
| /camera/status | get human readable status of the camera ("ON" or "OFF") and send the result to slack |
| /camera/state/on | switch on the camera |
| /camera/state/off | switch off the camera |
| /camera/toggle | toggle status of the camera |
Retrieving your status with curl:
curl http://localhost:3000/camera/status
My image support multiple architectures such as x86-64 and arm32v7. I use the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness.
Simply pull yo1l/homecam should retrieve the correct image for your architecture.
docker pull yo1l/homecam
The architectures supported by this image are:
| Architecture | Tag |
|---|---|
| x86-64 | amd64 |
| arm32v7 | arm32v7 |
docker create \
