## Important Notes
1. **Global vs Camera Settings**: Most settings can be defined globally and overridden per-camera. The system performs a deep merge of global and camera-specific configs.
2. **Required Fields**:
- `mqtt` (at root level)
- `cameras` (at root level)
- `ffmpeg.inputs` (per camera)
- `path` (per input)
- `roles` (per input, must include "detect")
- `coordinates` (per zone)
3. **EnvString**: Many sensitive fields (passwords, API keys) support environment variable interpolation using `{FRIGATE_VARNAME}` syntax.
4. **Preset Support**: FFmpeg args support preset strings (e.g., "preset-rtsp-generic", "preset-record-generic-audio-aac") which are expanded automatically.
5. **Hardware Acceleration**: `hwaccel_args: "auto"` will automatically detect and configure hardware acceleration.
6. **Percentage vs Pixels**: Filter `min_area` and `max_area` accept integers (pixels) or floats 0.000001-0.99 (percentage of frame).
7. **Coordinate Format**: Masks and zones use relative coordinates (0.0-1.0) or absolute pixels. Format: "x1,y1,x2,y2,..." or list of "x,y" strings.
8. **State Tracking**: Many configs have `enabled_in_config` fields to track original config state vs runtime changes.
9. **Validators**: Many fields have complex validation rules enforced by Pydantic validators (see source code for details).
10. **Extra Fields**: The `go2rtc` config accepts any extra fields (extra='allow') and passes them through to go2rtc.
## Configuration File Format
Frigate accepts both YAML and JSON configuration files. The system auto-detects the format based on:
1. File extension (.yaml, .yml, .json)
2. Content sniffing (looks for JSON structure)
Default config location: `/config/config.yml`
## Schema Validation
The configuration uses Pydantic models with:
- Type validation
- Range validation (ge, le, gt, lt)
- Pattern matching (regex)
- Custom validators
- Field descriptions and titles
- Default values
All config models inherit from `FrigateBaseModel` which sets:
- `extra="forbid"` - No unknown fields allowed
- `protected_namespaces=()` - Allow "model_" field names
## Complete Field Count
This schema documents **over 500 individual configuration fields** across:
- 70+ configuration classes
- 30+ enum types
- Multiple levels of nesting
- Global and per-camera settings
- Feature-specific configurations
Every field includes:
- Type information
- Default values
- Validation rules
- Description/title
- Required/optional status
- Nested object references

title: Using the GUI Configuration Editor
---
# GUI Configuration Editor
Frigate now includes a comprehensive GUI-based configuration editor that makes it easy to configure your NVR system without manually editing YAML files.
## Accessing the GUI Editor
Navigate to **Settings****Config** in the Frigate web interface. You'll see a toggle to switch between **YAML Mode** and **GUI Mode**.
## Features
### Comprehensive Coverage
The GUI editor provides form-based editing for **every single configuration option** in Frigate, including:
- Camera setup (streams, detection, recording, snapshots, zones)
- Object detection (detectors, model configuration, tracked objects)
- MQTT integration
- Motion detection
- Recording retention policies
- Snapshots configuration
- Audio detection
- Face recognition
- License plate recognition (LPR)
- Semantic search
- Birdseye view
- PTZ/ONVIF autotracking
- Generative AI integration
- Review system
- Authentication & authorization
- And much more...
### Smart Hints & Validation
- **Tooltips** on every field explain what the setting does
- **Examples** show proper formatting (e.g., RTSP URLs)
- **Inline validation** catches errors before saving
- **Default values** are pre-filled for optional settings
- **Required fields** are clearly marked
### Organized Sections
Configuration is organized into logical tabs:
- **Cameras** - Per-camera configuration
- **Detectors** - Hardware acceleration
- **Objects** - What to detect and track
- **Recording** - Retention and storage
- **Snapshots** - Image capture settings
- **Motion** - Motion detection tuning
- **MQTT** - Integration settings
- **Audio** - Audio detection
- **Advanced** - System-level settings
### No More YAML Syntax Errors
- No need to worry about indentation
- No missing colons or brackets
- Auto-completion for enum values
- Type-safe inputs (numbers, booleans, arrays)
## Quick Start Guide
### Adding Your First Camera
1. Navigate to the **Cameras** tab
2. Click **Add Camera**
3. Enter a name (e.g., "front_door")
4. Add your RTSP stream URL:
```
rtsp://username:password@192.168.1.100:554/stream
```
5. Set detection resolution (usually 1280x720)
6. Enable the camera
7. **Disable detection** initially until you confirm the feed works
8. Click **Save Only**
9. Check the Live view to ensure the stream works
10. Return and **enable detection**
### Configuring MQTT for Home Assistant
1. Go to the **MQTT** tab
2. Toggle **Enable MQTT** on
3. For HA Add-on users, enter:
- Host: `core-mosquitto`
- Port: `1883`
- Username: Your MQTT username
- Password: Your MQTT password
4. For Docker users, enter your broker's IP/hostname
5. Click **Save & Restart**
### Setting Up Object Detection
1. Navigate to **Detectors** tab
2. Select your detector type:
- **Edge TPU** for Google Coral
- **OpenVINO** for Intel graphics
- **TensorRT** for NVIDIA GPUs
- **CPU** if no hardware available
3. Go to **Objects** tab
4. Select which objects to track (person, car, dog, etc.)
5. Configure filters (min/max size, confidence thresholds)
### Configuring Recording
1. Open the **Recording** tab
2. Toggle **Enable Recording** on
3. Set retention:
- **Continuous**: How long to keep all footage (e.g., 3 days)
- **Events**: How long to keep footage with detections (e.g., 30 days)
4. Choose retention mode:
- `all` - Keep everything
- `motion` - Only keep when motion detected
- `active_objects` - Only keep when objects detected
5. Monitor storage usage in **System** → **Storage**
## Tips & Best Practices
### Start Simple
- Add ONE camera first
- Test the stream before enabling detection
- Add more features incrementally
### Use Environment Variables for Secrets
Instead of hardcoding passwords, use environment variables:
```
{FRIGATE_MQTT_PASSWORD}
{FRIGATE_RTSP_PASSWORD}
```
### Check the Docs
Each section includes a **"View Documentation"** link that opens the relevant guide.
### Still Need YAML?
You can switch to YAML mode at any time to:
- See the generated configuration
- Make bulk changes
- Copy/paste complex settings
- Use advanced features not yet in GUI
The YAML and GUI modes stay in sync - changes in one are reflected in the other.
## Troubleshooting
### "Config validation error"
- Check required fields are filled (marked with *)
- Verify RTSP URLs are correct
- Ensure camera names don't conflict with zone names
### Changes not applying
- Click **Save & Restart** not just **Save Only**
- Wait for Frigate to fully restart (check System page)
### Camera not showing
- Verify stream URL is correct
- Check camera is **enabled** in GUI
- Look at logs for connection errors
### Storage filling up
- Reduce recording retention days
- Use `motion` mode instead of `all`
- Decrease detection resolution/FPS
## Switching Back to YAML
If you prefer YAML editing:
1. Click **Switch to YAML Editor** button
2. Make your changes
3. Save
Your GUI changes are preserved in the YAML and vice versa.
## Getting Help
- **Documentation**: https://docs.frigate.video
- **GitHub Issues**: https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate/issues
- **Discussions**: https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate/discussions
The GUI editor is designed to make Frigate accessible to everyone, from beginners to advanced users. No more YAML nightmares!

# Frigate GUI Configuration Editor
A comprehensive, schema-driven GUI configuration editor for Frigate NVR that provides a user-friendly alternative to editing YAML files directly.
## Overview
The GUI Configuration Editor automatically generates form interfaces based on Frigate's JSON schema, ensuring that **every configuration option** is accessible through an intuitive UI. This eliminates the need to memorize YAML syntax and reduces configuration errors.
## Architecture
### Core Components
#### 1. **GuiConfigEditor** (`GuiConfigEditor.tsx`)
The main orchestrator component that:
- Fetches the configuration schema from `/api/config/schema.json`
- Manages form state using `react-hook-form`
- Provides a tabbed interface with 17+ configuration sections
- Handles save operations and validation
- Coordinates between all section components
#### 2. **SchemaFormRenderer** (`SchemaFormRenderer.tsx`)
The schema-to-UI engine that:
- Recursively traverses JSON schema definitions
- Dynamically generates appropriate form fields based on schema types
- Handles complex nested objects and arrays
- Resolves `$ref` references in the schema
- Supports all JSON schema constructs (anyOf, oneOf, allOf, etc.)
#### 3. **Form Field Components** (`fields/`)
Reusable, type-specific input components:
- **StringField**: Text inputs with pattern validation
- **NumberField**: Number/integer inputs with min/max constraints
- **BooleanField**: Toggle switches for boolean values
- **EnumField**: Dropdown selects for enumerated values
- **ArrayField**: Dynamic lists with add/remove functionality
- **DictField**: Key-value pair editors for dictionaries
- **NestedObjectField**: Collapsible cards for nested objects
Each field includes:
- Label with required indicator
- Help tooltip with description
- Real-time validation
- Error message display
- Example values in placeholders
#### 4. **Section Components** (`sections/`)
Specialized UI for major configuration areas:
- **CamerasSection**: Comprehensive camera configuration with camera list sidebar and tabbed settings (Basic, Streams, Detect, Record, Motion, Advanced)
- **GenericSection**: Reusable component for any top-level config section
### Configuration Sections
The editor provides 17+ tabbed sections covering ALL Frigate configuration:
1. **Cameras** - Complete camera setup (streams, detection, zones, recording)
2. **Detectors** - Hardware accelerators (Coral, OpenVINO, TensorRT, etc.)
3. **Objects** - Object detection and tracking configuration
4. **Recording** - Retention policies and storage settings
5. **Snapshots** - Snapshot capture and retention
6. **Motion Detection** - Motion sensitivity and masking
7. **MQTT** - Message broker configuration
8. **Audio** - Audio detection and transcription
9. **Face Recognition** - Face recognition model and settings
10. **License Plates (LPR)** - License plate detection
11. **Semantic Search** - AI-powered search configuration
12. **Birdseye** - Multi-camera overview display
13. **Review System** - Event review and management
14. **GenAI** - Generative AI features
15. **Authentication** - User roles and permissions
16. **UI Settings** - User interface preferences
17. **Advanced** - Database, logging, telemetry, networking
## Utilities (`lib/configUtils.ts`)
Helper functions for configuration management:
- `configToYaml()` - Convert config object to YAML
- `yamlToConfig()` - Parse YAML to config object
- `validateConfig()` - Validate against JSON schema
- `getDefaultValue()` - Extract default values from schema
- `getFormFieldMeta()` - Generate field metadata from schema
- `resolveRef()` - Resolve schema references
- `deepMerge()` - Deep merge configuration objects
## Type System (`types/configSchema.ts`)
Comprehensive TypeScript definitions:
- Schema field types (StringSchema, NumberSchema, etc.)
- Configuration structure types
- Validation result types
- Form state types
## Usage
### Toggle Between YAML and GUI Modes
The ConfigEditor page includes a mode toggle:
```tsx
<ToggleGroup value={editorMode} onValueChange={setEditorMode}>
<ToggleGroupItem value="yaml">YAML</ToggleGroupItem>
<ToggleGroupItem value="gui">GUI</ToggleGroupItem>
</ToggleGroup>
```
### How It Works
1. **Schema Loading**: On mount, fetches `/api/config/schema.json`
2. **Form Generation**: SchemaFormRenderer recursively builds forms from schema
3. **User Editing**: Form fields update state via react-hook-form
4. **Validation**: Real-time validation using schema constraints
5. **Saving**: On save, converts form data to YAML and POSTs to `/api/config/save`
### Adding New Fields
**No code changes needed!** The GUI automatically adapts when new fields are added to Frigate's schema. Simply:
1. Add the field to the Frigate backend schema
2. The GUI will automatically render the appropriate input
### Extending with Custom Sections
To add a specialized section component:
```tsx
// 1. Create section component
export function MySection({ schema }: { schema: ConfigSchema }) {
return (
<GenericSection
title="My Feature"
description="Configure my feature"
schema={schema}
propertyName="my_feature"
/>
);
}
// 2. Add tab in GuiConfigEditor.tsx
<TabsTrigger value="my-feature">My Feature</TabsTrigger>
// 3. Add content
<TabsContent value="my-feature">
<MySection schema={schema} />
</TabsContent>
```
## Features
### Schema-Driven
- Automatically adapts to schema changes
- No manual form coding required
- Self-documenting via schema descriptions
### Comprehensive Coverage
- Every config option accessible
- 500+ fields across 70+ nested objects
- Camera-specific and global settings
### User-Friendly
- Tooltips on every field
- Smart defaults pre-filled
- Real-time validation
- Example values shown
- Logical organization
### Robust
- TypeScript for type safety
- Form validation with react-hook-form
- Error handling and display
- Dirty state tracking
- Unsaved changes warning

```
## Development
### Prerequisites
- React 18+
- react-hook-form 7+
- zod 3+ (for validation)
- Radix UI components
- Tailwind CSS
### Building
No special build steps required. The components are part of the standard Vite build.
### Testing
To test the GUI editor:
1. Navigate to `/config` in Frigate
2. Click the "GUI" toggle button
3. Explore the tabbed interface
4. Make changes and save
## Future Enhancements
Potential improvements:
- [ ] Camera stream preview in GUI
- [ ] Zone editor with visual polygon drawing
- [ ] Motion mask editor with canvas
- [ ] Import/export individual camera configs
- [ ] Configuration templates
- [ ] Search/filter across all settings
- [ ] Configuration comparison/diff view
- [ ] Undo/redo functionality
- [ ] Configuration validation before save
- [ ] In-line documentation links
## Technical Decisions
### Why Schema-Driven?
- **Maintainability**: Schema changes automatically reflect in UI
- **Consistency**: Single source of truth for all fields
- **Completeness**: Guarantees all options are accessible
- **Documentation**: Schema descriptions provide built-in help
### Why react-hook-form?
- Performant (minimal re-renders)
- Built-in validation
- TypeScript support
- Handles complex nested forms
- Great DX
### Why Radix UI?
- Accessible by default
- Unstyled (works with Tailwind)
- Comprehensive component set
- Actively maintained
## Contributing
When adding new configuration options to Frigate:
1. Update the backend JSON schema
2. The GUI will automatically render the new fields
3. No frontend changes needed (unless custom UI is desired)
For custom section components:
1. Create component in `sections/`
2. Add tab in `GuiConfigEditor.tsx`
3. Export from `sections/index.ts`
