Raspberry, webcam och Domoticz

I got a USB camera Logitech C270 connected and I have tried Motion and fswebcam and it works perfect and takes nice pictures.
But I want to use this raspberry and webcam as "webcamserver" so that I can get snapshots in Domoticz.
I have a couple of Axis cameras and Dlink with those cameras I can use wget and fetch a image.
Is there a software that I can use with the raspberry that function the same way ?

This should be possible with Motion

Just set the port number not to be the same as any other web services running on the Pi and you should be good.

Have a look here 1st

Thanks for your answer.
I plan to put this rasberry pointing my parkinglot.
I have my other raspberry running Domoticz
So using uvccapture is no option.
Motion is working fine but I cant take "snapshots" from it on demand only on specified time like each 5 minutes or so.

There must be a URL for snap shot - ie what is being sent every 5 mins as a command?

In Motion conf you can specify time when snapshot will be taken

Which imageurl needs to be used when you want to use FSwebcam (and not uvccapture)?

Yeah same with my old webcam, works in fswebcam and do not want overhead of motion running, should be possible to use fswebcam as command to trigger image capture rather than uvccapture
