Is your feature request related to a problem?

Would like to add support for Ubiquiti Protect API, we should be able to see camera nodes on the topology map, click on one or a cluster of cameras, and see the camera feed(s) on the deck.gl canvas. We already have some WIP with Axis API / cameras, those should work with this as well.

expose endpoints on topology graph
WASM plugin for Protect API integration
deck.gl / canvas camera integration
Protect events integration into ServiceRadar

Need to figure out what the data model/shape is going to look like for cameras, this WASM plugin is going to discover cameras through the Protect API and needs to produce information that can be absorbed/processed by core-elx and end up in the correct schema (ocsf_devices). We probably will have to add additional schema/table to support this additional metadata instead of just trying to stuff it into a metadata field in ocsf_devices

We probably will also need to integrate this into the topology binary data pipeline so we can quickly update the graph if a node changes status as it relates to a camera event or something like that.

This is a typescript library we could get some ideas from:

Decoding the event stream:

https://github.com/hjdhjd/unifi-protect/blob/main/src/protect-api-events.ts
https://github.com/hjdhjd/unifi-protect/blob/main/src/protect-types.ts

Need to figure out how we're going to get these events into SR. I think we created a pipeline for agents/plugins to do this need to investigate further.

might want to check this out, we could receive RSTP feeds in membrane and multi-plex them out to clients, this would be great to reduce the load on cameras for multiple viewer streams https://github.com/membraneframework
