camcap

CamCap

A simple app to iterate through a list of ustreamer camera links and stash away a capture at a specific time interval. Take a look at camcap.json.example for the configuration file. It will be found in one of three locations, in this order:

• /usr/local/etc/camcap.json
• /etc/camcap.json
• ./camcap.json (directory the tool is run from)

Additionally, all captured images will be put in a directory the same as the camera title and in nested directories by year, month and date, with the final file timestamped and appended with the camera title as well.

Build

Ensure you have Go version 1.21 or greater installed. Personally I use https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf But by now I bet there's dozens of hipper tools.

In this directory, run:

go build -o build/camcap camcap.go
