Would it be possible to configure monitors and groups via the command line or an api? Maybe even options in the config file?

If your just trying to make live view groups, go2rtc works pretty well for that.

To clarify, what I'm after is a way to update stream settings and groups via the commandline. Like instead of having to click through the menu, I could open a shell in the container or ssh into sentryshot.

Then I'd do something like:

sentryshot --update-monitor 0 name=my_cam enable=true source=rtsp://<dvr_ip:port/channel> record=true length=20

Or:

sentryshot --create-monitor name=front-yard enable=true source=rtsp://<dvr_ip:port/channel> record=false

Or even:

sentryshot --create-group name=FOH monitors=patio,front-door,dining-1,dining-2,server-station-1

Issuing commands to sentryshot via some API, essentially.
A config file option would be nice as it would make setup easily reproducible.

This would have to support multiple motion detection zones, and I don't see a sane way to configure that with commands.

You could just edit the json files in configs/monitors/ and restart. I don't think the storage format will change any time soon.
