node-synology-surveillance

Node module to interact with the Surveillance Station by Synology.

Installation

$ npm install node-synology-surveillance

Usage

You can use this module on the same way as you do it with oter modules:

var Synology = require('node-synology-surveillance');

var syno = new Synology({
    host    : 'localhost',
    user    : 'user',
    password: 'userpwd'
});

syno.surveillance.info.get_info(function(err, data){
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log(data);
});

All functions have the same structure:

syno.surveillance.{API}.{function}([params], [callback]{}

The params are optional (doumented in the original WebApi document with samples) and are in the form of an object.

syno.surveillance.recording.record({
    cameraId: 1,
    action: "stop"
}, function(err, data){
    if (err) throw err;
    //do anything with the data
});

The callback is optional too, if you don't need the data or the error.
