Welcome to the shots wiki!

How it works

the application fetches the images from the IP camera through http. It uses the username/password you provided from the config file to fetch a snapshot image of the camera.

This is executed through this command

php artisan shots:capture

this will go over all cameras and take a snapshot of them each. These images is saved into storage/app folder. The system will also try to upload it to an ftp server, which you had provided in the ftp configuration.

The cron job automatically does the invocation of the above command in regular basis, so you don't need to call them manually.
