• edit /etc/hostname -> change hostname to new hostname
• reboot to take effect

3. copy ssh keys to pi

ssh-copy-id pi@${hostname}

4. copy raspivid_stream folder to rasberry pi. from remote computer, run

scp -r raspivid_stream pi@${hostname}:/home/pi/

5. copy config file (ex: ${hostname}_stream_cfg.yml) to rasberry pi as /home/pi/raspivid_stream/stream_cfg.yml. from remote computer, run

scp config/${hostname}_stream_cfg.yml pi@${hostname}:/home/pi/raspivid_stream/stream_cfg.yml

6. make stop_stream and start_stream scripts executable and copy to usr/bin

ssh pi@${hostname} 'chmod +x /home/pi/raspivid_stream/stop_stream' 
ssh pi@${hostname} 'chmod +x /home/pi/raspivid_stream/start_stream' 
ssh pi@${hostname} 'sudo cp /home/pi/raspivid_stream/stop_stream /usr/bin'
ssh pi@${hostname} 'sudo cp /home/pi/raspivid_stream/start_stream /usr/bin'
ssh pi@${hostname} 'stop_stream'

6. create and enable service (to automatically start at boot)

ssh pi@${hostname} 'cp /home/pi/raspivid_stream/raspivid_stream.service /etc/systemd/system/'
ssh pi@${hostname} 'sudo systemctl enable raspivid_stream'
