Turned off caching for all web interface pages. Opencv will no longer be
compiled from source as part the setup.sh script, instead the
libopencv-dev package will be installed.
Logs are still being cutoff, I'm assuming the app is crashing but can't
locate the problem without any logs. Reformed logging to never overwrite
the logs and will instead append only. Size control will be in the form
of the byte size of the log files.
Fixed a bug that caused the buffDir to get deleted before the app did
any work. Apparently the filesystem lib crashes the app if the directory
doesn't exists. Might need to add protection against that in the future.
Directory pages with now explicitly link to index.html since implicit
does not work for apache2.
The error checking with ffmpeg is not working. Learned that it doesn't
always return 0 on success. Decided to remove the error checking
altogether. Instead ffmpeg failures should be checked manually using
stderr.
Dirent includes .. and . so I decided to switch to the filesystem entry
listing that should hopefully exclude those special directories.
The camera webroot was not generating .index files. those files would
only get generated if motion was detected. Copied the code that does
that onto recLoop() to execute regardless of motion.
Fixed the default webroot directory to apache's correct webroot. Also
renamed separated outDir from webRoot and made webRoot changeable on the
config file.
Added logging the recorder and detection loops to help with debugging
and troubleshooting. Just like the video clips, max log lines were added
to control the size of the data being saved to storage.
Decided to switch using opencv's builtin pixel diff motion detection via
absdiff and thresh. Doing this should increase efficiency instead of
using the home brewed pixel loops and threads.
Added a web interface of sorts by having html files output along with
the video clips. These files are designed to link together with the
assumption that the output directory is a web root like /var/www/html
that apache2 uses. The interface is crude at best but at least allow
playback of recorded footage.
Added max_clips config variable that can limit the amount of motion
events that can recorded to storage on a single day.
