gu-ma / motion-docker

motion-docker

This container is built automatically whenever code is pushed to master at https://github.com/Motion-Project/motion .

Caveats

• If you use /dev/video, locally attached cameras or the database features of Motion, this container won't work for you at this stage.
• This is built directly from git master, if you want something more stable grab a prebuilt release from here and install manually.

How to run

something like this;

docker run -d --name=motion \
    -p 7999:7999 \
    -p 8081:8081 \
    -p 8082:8082 \
    -p 8083:8083 \
    -p 8084:8084 \
    -p 8085:8085 \
    -p 8087:8087 \
    -e TZ="Europe/Zurich" \
    -v /home/gu-ma/.motion:/usr/local/etc/motion \
    -v /volume1/motion/storage:/var/lib/motion \
    --restart=always \
    --device /dev/video0 \
    motionproject/motion:latest

How to Update

docker stop motion
docker rm motion
docker pull motionproject/motion:latest
- rerun above run command

Things you may need to change

• name = a label for the container, should be motion or motion-project (but can be anything)
• ports = each -p line denotes 1 camera and its stream port
• TZ = the timezone the container will be running
• volumes = /dockerserver/path/to/config = /dockerserver/path/to/storage
