<p><a href="http://www.openalpr.com/">OpenALPR</a> integration for Home Assistant allows you to process licences plates recorded with a camera. You can use them to open a garage door or trigger any other <a href="https://home-assistant.io/components/automation/">automation</a>.</p>
<p class="note">
If you want use a video stream. You need setup the <a href="/components/ffmpeg">ffmpeg</a> component. See also there for troubleshooting local ffmpeg installation.
</p>
<h3><a class="title-link" name="local-installation" href="#local-installation"></a> Local installation</h3>
<p>If you want process all data locally, you need version 2.3.1 or higher of the <code class="highlighter-rouge">alpr</code> commandline tool.</p>
<p>If you dont find binaries for your distribution you can compile from source. Documention of how to build OpenALPR is found <a href="https://github.com/openalpr/openalpr/wiki">here</a>.</p>
<p>On a Debian system you can use this <code class="highlighter-rouge">cmake</code> command to build only the command line tool:</p>
<div class="language-bash highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code><span class="gp">$ </span>cmake -DWITH_TEST<span class="o">=</span>FALSE -DWITH_BINDING_JAVA<span class="o">=</span>FALSE --DWITH_BINDING_PYTHON<span class="o">=</span>FALSE --DWITH_BINDING_GO<span class="o">=</span>FALSE -DWITH_DAEMON<span class="o">=</span>FALSE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH<span class="o">=</span>/usr ..
</code></pre>
</div>
<p>Verify your <code class="highlighter-rouge">alpr</code> installation with:</p>
