Run command with parameters

[stumper66]

Hello,

When an alarm is triggered I'd like to run a command and pass arguments from the event, such as the camera name, rule name etc. Is this possible?

There isn't currently a way to query variables to pass as parameters ("python myscript.py $CAMERA $RULE") but if those are the actual values you're interested as they are immutable rather than something like $CURRENT_TIME you could of course specify them as args yourself (python myscript.py Driveway).

It would be great to extend interaction support either via API or argument tokens but it isn't something that exists at the moment.
