Module: Motion Display

A module for the MagicMirror that displays an image of the last motion detected by an IP camera. This module reiles on basic ONVIF capabilities from a camera and also uses the motion detection and alerting capabilities of the camera. This module just detects the motion evet and grabs the image for display. Currently the image is displayed for a hard coded 5 minutes before being removed. This module is in BETA and a bunch of improvements are required but its functional.

Installation

Navigate into your MagicMirror's ~/MagicMirror/modules folder and execute git clone https://github.com/pjestico/MMM-MotionDisplay.git A new folder will be created, please navigate into it. Run npm install in ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-MotionDisplay to install the module and dependencies.

Using the module

To use this module, add it to the modules array in the config/config.js file:

var config = {
    modules: [
        {
            module: 'MMM-MotionDisplay',
            position: 'lower_third',
            config: {
                host: 'IP ADDRESS OR NAME',
                port: '80',
                user: 'USERNAME',
                password: 'PASSWORD',
            },
        }
    ]
}
