  3. Then, either install with Poetry or run with Docker

Docker

Configuration

The following are some basic CLI options. Most flags have environment variable equivalents which can be helpful when using Docker.

  • For face recognition, put images of faces in subdirectories ./faces (this can be changed with --faces-directory)
    • Keep in mind, on the first run, face rec
  • By default, notifications are sent for all objects. This can be changed with one or more occurrences of --detect-object to specify which objects to detect
    • Currently, all classes in the COCO dataset can be detected
  • To specify where notifications are sent, specify a ntfy URL with --ntfy-url
  • To configure the program when using Docker, edit docker-compose.yml and/or set environment variables.
  • For further information, use --help

How to uninstall
