Podman Quadlet Example

This is a generic example for running frigate-camera-control-bridge with Podman Quadlet. The files model one Frigate instance. For multiple instances, copy the .container and .env files and change FRIGATE_NAME, FRIGATE_URL, BASE_TOPIC, the PublishPort binding, and MQTT credentials.

Example install:

install -d /etc/frigate-camera-control-bridge
install -m 0600 frigate-camera-control-bridge.env.example \
  /etc/frigate-camera-control-bridge/frigate-main.env
install -m 0644 frigate-camera-control-bridge.container \
  /etc/containers/systemd/frigate-camera-control-bridge.container
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable --now frigate-camera-control-bridge.service

Fill these env values:

MQTT_HOST, MQTT_USER, MQTT_PASSWORD
DEFAULT_CAMERA_USER, DEFAULT_CAMERA_PASSWORD
FRIGATE_NAME, FRIGATE_URL, BASE_TOPIC

If the sidecar should follow an existing Frigate service, adjust the frigate.service references in After, Requires, BindsTo, and PartOf.
