Instead of passing username and password on the command line, it is possible to put them in to a file and pass this file with parameter -r to $ME. The file must consist of one line containing the username and the password, delimited by space and termitated by cr/nl. $ME takes following parameters: optional parameters: hostname: host to connect to (localhost) portnum: port to connect to (8080) username: username to log in (admin) passwd: password to log in (admin) All optional parameters must be set before any camera action parameters on the command line. mandatory parameters: cam: cam to control, refers to the thread # in motion (cam # 0 menas all cameras!) action: action to be passed to the motion thread controling this cam. Actually, this is the path part of the motion html control interface, but some handy abbreviations exist, see below. Actions: long name short name detection/start dstart detection/pause dpause detection/status dstatus detection/connection dcon (all "action" part of the html control interface, it's obviously the path part of the URL) Actions can be repeated on the command line. For instance: $ME -c 0 -a dpause -c 1 -a dstart turns off detection on cam 0 and turns on detection on cam 1. Multiple action parts always refer to the last left camera. For instance $ME -c 0 -a dpause -a detection/status would first turn off detection on cam 0 and then retrieve the current detection status of the same camera. This script requires perl LWP packages to be properly installed. __SHORTHELP__ ;; H) HOST="$OPTARG";; p) PORT="$OPTARG";; U) USERNAME="$OPTARG";; P) PASSWD="$OPTARG";; v) VERBOSE=true;; c) cam="$OPTARG";; a) action="$OPTARG";; r) if [ -f "$OPTARG" ] then while read user pass do USER=$user PASSWD=$pass done <"$OPTARG" else echo can not open \'$OPTARG\' >&2 exit -1 fi;; *) echo $USAGE;; esac laction="$action" case "$action" in dstart) laction=detection/start;; dpause) laction=detection/pause;; dstatus) laction=detection/status;; dcon) laction=detection/connection;; esac if [ "x$cam" != x -a "x$laction" != x ] then debug setting action $action on cam $cam mcontrol $cam "$laction" echo $ianswer fi action="" done
