Package Exports

pi-motion-detection

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (pi-motion-detection) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Installation

// NPM 5
npm install pi-motion-detection

// Older NPM versions

Basic usage

const path = require('path');
const MotionDetectionModule = require('pi-motion-detection');
const motionDetector = new MotionDetectionModule({
  captureDirectory: path.resolve(__dirname, 'captures'),
});

motionDetector.on('motion', () => {
  console.log('motion!');
});

motionDetector.on('error', (error) => {
  console.log(error);
});

motionDetector.watch();

Constructor Options

const motionDetector = new MotionDetectionModule({
  // Required
  captureDirectory: foo, // Directory to store tmp photos and video captures. Those will be written into
                         // captureDirectory/images and captureDirectory/videos respectively

  // Optional
  continueAfterMotion: false,  // Defaults to false
                               // Flag to control if motion detection will continue after detection
