Uploading Snapshots to Google

Google Drive support was removed in v2.0.0

This is an optional feature that will automatically store every snapshot taken to your Google Drive account as a photo. This is very useful if you have motion sensor in the same room as the camera, as it will take a snapshot of whatever caused the motion sensor to trigger, and store the image on Google Drive and create a Picture Notification on your iOS device.

The snapshots are stored in a folder called "Camera Pictures", and are named with camera name, date and time of the image.

To enable this feature, please add a new config option "uploader", and follow the steps below.

• Add the option "uploader" to your config.json i.e.

{
  "platform": "Camera-ffmpeg",
  "cameras": [
    {
      "name": "Camera Name",
      "uploader": true,
      "videoConfig": {
        "source": "-re -i rtsp://myfancy_rtsp_stream",
        "stillImageSource": "-i http://faster_still_image_grab_url/this_is_optional.jpg",
        "maxStreams": 2,
        "maxWidth": 1280,
        "maxHeight": 720,
        "maxFPS": 30,
        "vcodec": "h264_omx"
      }
    }
  ]
}

If the option is missing, it defaults to false, and does not enable the uploader.
