Usage Examples

Get Device Information

info, err := client.GetDeviceInformation(ctx)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Printf("Manufacturer: %s\n", info.Manufacturer)
fmt.Printf("Model: %s\n", info.Model)
fmt.Printf("Firmware: %s\n", info.FirmwareVersion)

Get Network Protocols

protocols, err := client.GetNetworkProtocols(ctx)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
for _, proto := range protocols {
    fmt.Printf("%s: enabled=%v, ports=%v\n", proto.Name, proto.Enabled, proto.Port)
}

Configure DNS

err := client.SetDNS(ctx, false, []string{"example.com"}, []onvif.IPAddress{
    {Type: "IPv4", IPv4Address: "8.8.8.8"},
    {Type: "IPv4", IPv4Address: "8.8.4.4"},
})

System Date/Time

sysTime, err := client.FixedGetSystemDateAndTime(ctx)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Printf("Type: %s\n", sysTime.DateTimeType)
fmt.Printf("UTC: %d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d\n",
    sysTime.UTCDateTime.Date.Year,
    sysTime.UTCDateTime.Date.Month,
    sysTime.UTCDateTime.Date.Day,
    sysTime.UTCDateTime.Time.Hour,
    sysTime.UTCDateTime.Time.Minute,
    sysTime.UTCDateTime.Time.Second)

Control Relay Output

// Turn relay on
err := client.SetRelayOutputState(ctx, "relay1", onvif.RelayLogicalStateActive)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

// Turn relay off
err = client.SetRelayOutputState(ctx, "relay1", onvif.RelayLogicalStateInactive)

Send Auxiliary Command

// Turn on IR illuminator
response, err := client.SendAuxiliaryCommand(ctx, "tt:IRLamp|On")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

System Backup

backups, err := client.GetSystemBackup(ctx)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
for _, backup := range backups {
    fmt.Printf("Backup: %s\n", backup.Name)
}

IP Address Filtering

filter := &onvif.IPAddressFilter{
    Type: onvif.IPAddressFilterAllow,
    IPv4Address: []onvif.PrefixedIPv4Address{
        {Address: "192.168.1.0", PrefixLength: 24},
    },
}
err := client.SetIPAddressFilter(ctx, filter)

Password Complexity

config := &onvif.PasswordComplexityConfiguration{
    MinLen:                  8,
    Uppercase:               1,
    Number:                  1,
    SpecialChars:            1,
    BlockUsernameOccurrence: true,
}
err := client.SetPasswordComplexityConfiguration(ctx, config)

Next Steps

To complete the full ONVIF Device Management implementation, the following categories need implementation:

1. Certificate Management (13 APIs) - For TLS/SSL certificate handling
2. 802.11/WiFi Configuration (8 APIs) - For wireless network management
3. Storage Configuration (5 APIs) - For recording storage management
4. Geo Location (3 APIs) - For GPS/location services
5. Advanced Security (3 remaining APIs) - Access policies and hashing algorithms
6. DP Addresses (2 APIs) - Discovery protocol addresses

These can be added following the same patterns established in the existing implementation.

Server-Side Implementation

Note: This implementation provides client-side support for all these APIs. For a complete ONVIF server implementation, you would need to:

1. Create a server package that implements the ONVIF SOAP service endpoints
2. Handle incoming SOAP requests and dispatch to appropriate handlers
3. Implement the business logic for each operation
4. Add proper WS-Security authentication/authorization
5. Implement event subscriptions and notifications

This is a substantial undertaking and typically requires:

• SOAP server framework
• WS-Discovery implementation
• Event notification system
• Persistent storage for configuration
• Hardware abstraction layer for device controls

Compliance Notes

The current implementation provides:

• ✅ ONVIF Profile S compliance (core streaming + basic device management)
• ✅ ONVIF Profile T compliance (H.265 + advanced streaming)
• ⏳ Partial ONVIF Profile C compliance (missing some access control features)
• ⏳ Partial ONVIF Profile G compliance (missing storage/recording features)

For full compliance, certificate management and storage APIs should be implemented.
