I have Zoneminder 1.28.100, and I have installed the API to remote control ZM function from an home automation software.
I use this command to switch from Modect to Monitor:
On ZoneMinder web interface, I can see that Function is switched to Monitor, but motion detection continue to operate and record video when motion is detected.Code: Select all
curl -XPOST htetp://zoneminder/zm/api/monitors/1.json -d "Monitor[Function]=Monitor"
Only way to have it back to monitor is from web interface to set in Modect and then back to Monitor. In this way, motion detection really stop.
Any hekp would be appreciated.

Thanks for answer.asker wrote:The Controller for this is MonitorsController.php inside the API directory. If I recall correctly, the monitor is not restarted when you edit the mode.
Take a look at daemonControl inside that file - you will probably need to restart that monitor. Once you test and have it working, consider doing a pull request. If everything works, it would probably be one line addition at the edit function there.

i tried to install a new server with latest version of the ZM and API using instruction on link you sent, but i did it on Debian not on Ubuntu, and I'm stuck, because ZM does not start, and I'm not able to go forward on this. If you are able to help me, I can try to go ahead on this installation.
Meanwhile, I'll try step 1) on my actual server.
