Onvif Server for Linux (NOT FUNCTIONAL YET, DONT WAST YOUR TIME)
Although I loved the rpos project, it is built on nodejs which I'm really not a fan of. Still, I must give my thanks for such a great introduction to the ONVIF protocol. I personally prefer working on very small embeded devices for these kind of things, so a small footprint is a priority. This is why I decided to start my own project built on C. The result should be a considerably smaller memory footprint overhead for the ONVIF HTTP service.
The first goal is implementing NetworkVideoTransmitter Profile S followed by Profile T. I may consider adding additional ONVIF device types like NetworkVideoDisplay, NetworkVideoStorage, NetworkVideoAnalytics, etc...
- WS-Security and WS-Discovery (gsoap)
- Barebone device and media service
- Barebone RTSP Server (gstreamer)
- Stand-alone (No external webserver required)
- Configuration storage
- Complete ONVIF Implementations (Status breakdown will eventually be documented)
- And a lot more...
Turning any linux device (PC, laptop, SBC) into an ONVIF compatible device.
git clone https://github.com/Quedale/OnvifServer.git
mkdir OnvifServer/build
cd OnvifServer/build
[Mandatory] The following package dependencies are mandatory and are not yet automatically built:
sudo apt install git
sudo apt install pkg-config
sudo apt install make
sudo apt install g++
[Optional] The following package are optional, but will reduce the runtime of autogen.sh if installed.
sudo apt install python3-pip
python3 -m pip install cmake
sudo apt install zlib1g-dev
Once the mandatory dependencies are installed, configure and compile the project with cmake.
Note that cmake will automatically invoke the autogen.sh script.
cmake ..
make -j$(nproc)
At this point, you should be able to execute the server without installing it on the system
./dist/onvifserver -p 8080 -r 8554
DO NOT INSTALL THIS YET. ESSENTIAL FEATURES ARE NOT IMPLEMENTED YET.
