A while back, I needed a camera on short notice, but I didn’t have a server or any real hard drive space to speak of, so I just used “motion” on a 20 year old laptop, using the built-in webcam. It only saves video when motion is detected. I set it up to send me a Signal message with the video any time motion was detected, using signal-cli from the AUR. I know nothing about docker, but I thought it was super easy for my purposes.
