The `Local File Camera` allows you to integrate any readable image file from disk into Home Assistant.
|
||||||
|
If the image is updated in the file system the image displayed in Home Assistant will also be updated.
|
||||||
|
This can for example be used with various camera platforms that save a temporary images localy.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
||||||
|
camera:
|
||||||
|
platform: local_file_camera
|
||||||
|
name: Local File Camera
|
||||||
|
file_path: /tmp/image.jpg
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Configuration variables:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **name** (optional): Name of the camera
|
||||||
|
- **file_path** (required): File to serve as the camera.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The given **file_path** must be an existing file because the camera platform setup make a readable check on it.
