In this tutorial, we are going to take the Raspberry Pi webcam server project one step further by giving the raspberry pi the capability to send you an email whenever it detects motion. Motion, the software we are using for our security system, already can detect motion and will only record video if it has motion in it. We are sending emails by making an SMTP server with NodeJS. We are using the Nodemailer package to configure the SMTP server. The full-length detailied YouTube tutorial is below.
