## Set port number here if the same for all cameras, otherwise do it in each case below
PORT='PORT'
ADDR="$(curl -4 icanhazip.com)"
#ADDR='my.ddns.com'

## Set whether to use HTTP or HTTPS for your camera feed

## Set this in each case as below, leave blank here
EVENT=

##
# Create your cases as required.
#
# These will be used when calling the script, so it knows what to do, and correspond to "Event Name" parameter in the IFTTT webhook applet settings.
#
# The defaults are:
# notify - trigger motion_detected event, for push notifications
# start  - trigger motion_start event, for toggling backlight intensity on Pi touchscreen and logging to Google Sheets
# stop   - trigger motion_end event, for toggling backlight intensity on Pi touchscreen and logging to Google Sheets
