Get Snapshot from Hikvision Camera

[admin]

Some cameras allow passing credentials as a GET parameter. See if this works for you:

Code:

http = require('socket.http')
base64enc = require('encdec').base64enc

ip = '192.168.192.168'
auth = 'user:pass'
url = 'http://' .. ip .. '/ISAPI/Streaming/channels/101/picture?auth=' .. base64enc(auth)

res, err = http.request(url)
log(res, err)
