Is there an http api available?

I noticed a SharedMem.pm (perl module) which is supposedly container for any api like functionality...but I have a tomcat/java application.

I basically wanted ability to generate html for thumbnail and full 'detail' views at a minimum...ability to scale image w/be nice. Ability to playback a 'capture' from event as well.

Ability to invoke 'methods' on camera components w/be nice, as would eventing. I guess I can format a zm email and use this as notification api, but it would be nicer to see sms and http eventing. Event file captured could be details in http message regarding event.

There is a basis for an XML API for accessing event /monitor data and controlling them see:

for patching it in. It may not contain everything you need but atleast give you a basis for most of it.
