Homebridge plugin that connects to your HikVision NVR and exposes your cameras in Homebridge. The plugin is heavily based on excellent homebridge-camera-ffmpeg.
This plugin will automatically discover all cameras connected to your NVR and will expose them to homebridge. You will get access to stream video (including sound) directly from your home app, will get push notification with screenshots of the motion events - this needs to be configured in HikVision NVR and additionally in Home app under home settings - you will need to enable notifications.
In order to use this plugin, you need to install homebridge-camera-ffmpeg
and homebridge-hikvision
as per below:
sudo npm install -g homebridge-camera-ffmpeg @ferronrsmith/homebridge-hikvision --unsafe-perm
To configure, add this to your config.json
for homebridge under platforms node:
{
"platforms": [
{
"platform": "Hikvision",
"host": "nvr-host",
"port": 443,
"username": "admin",
"password": "very-secure-password"
}
]
}
At this time, these are the only configuration options available. Once you've added the platform to your config, (re)start your homebridge instance, and configure your cameras on your iPhone or iPad, iOS will prompt you for each camera in your system.
The plugin does not detect motion itself, it responds to events generated by the NVR using HTTP Event API. The relevant code for this lives at https://github.com/node-packages/homebridge-hikvision/blob/master/src/HikvisionApi.ts#L73.
You must set up notifications in the NVR configuration as per below screenshot:
