Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

You need IP cameras and then you need a NVR server for recording, detection, and display. There are some good open source NVR programs out there with docker support. I've been wanting to try Viseron. There's also ZoneMinder and Shinobi that seem to be good.
Unfortunately most consumer cameras are cloud only. This seems to be a list of cameras you can look into: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Hardware_Compatibility_List
Your best bet is probably a chinese brand for cameras. Dahlua seems popular. There are also a bunch of PoE cameras on Aliexpress for $15-25, but I can't attest to if they're any good. Hikvision cameras seem to have been popular too, but they have been recently sanctioned by EU/US for human rights violations.
