[OpenALPR](http://www.openalpr.com/) integration for Home Assistant allows you
to process licences plates from a camera. You can use them to open a garage door
or trigger any other [automation](/components/automation/).
For using the result inside an automation rule, take a look at the
[component](/components/image_processing) page.
### {% linkable_title Local installation %}
If you want process all data locally, you need version 2.3.1 or higher of the
`alpr` commandline tool.
If you don't find binaries for your distribution you can compile from source.
Documentation of how to build OpenALPR is found
[here](https://github.com/openalpr/openalpr/wiki).
On a Debian system you can use this `cmake` command to build only the command
line tool:
```bash
$ cmake -DWITH_TEST=FALSE -DWITH_BINDING_JAVA=FALSE --DWITH_BINDING_PYTHON=FALSE \
--DWITH_BINDING_GO=FALSE -DWITH_DAEMON=FALSE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr ..
```
For other operating system please refer to the
[OpenALPR wiki](https://github.com/openalpr/openalpr/wiki).
Verify your `alpr` installation with:
```bash
$ wget -O- -q http://plates.openalpr.com/h786poj.jpg | alpr -
```
