add_local_camera
Add a camera feed to your local collection. Cameras persist across restarts and appear in searches with the 'local' source, ready to share upstream.
Instructions
Add a camera to your local collection. Local cameras persist in ~/.openeagleeye/local-cameras.json and survive restarts and registry updates. They appear in list_cameras and search_cameras with source 'local'. Share upstream anytime with submit_local.
