Guidance needed on converting from Coco to LS about label-studio-converter

[opyate]

For anyone who stumble upon this in the future.

Given:

COCO=/path/to/coco/export
JSON_FILE=$COCO/result.json
IMAGES=$COCO/images

Conversion:

git clone https://github.com/heartexlabs/label-studio-converter.git
cd label-studio-converter
label-studio-converter import coco \
        -i $JSON_FILE \
        --image-root-url=/data/local-files/?d=images \
        -o output.json

Run label studio:

LABEL_STUDIO_LOCAL_FILES_SERVING_ENABLED=true \
LABEL_STUDIO_LOCAL_FILES_DOCUMENT_ROOT=$COCO \
label-studio

Follow the steps spat out by the conversion IN ORDER (repeated here):

1. Create a new project in Label Studio
2. Use Labeling Config from "/path/to/your/local/git/clone/of/label-studio-converter/output.label_config.xml"
3. Setup serving for images [e.g. you can use Local Storage (or others):
   https://labelstud.io/guide/storage.html#Local-storage]
4. Import "/path/to/your/local/git/clone/of/label-studio-converter/output.json" to the project

Step 3 looks like this:

What is IMPORTANT is the relationship between LABEL_STUDIO_LOCAL_FILES_DOCUMENT_ROOT=$COCO and Absolute local path in the screenshot above, and the latter has to be a sub-directory of the former, as per this cryptic bit of documentation:

"start from the first directory" is just the relationship I described a moment ago.

@opyate

1. --output should be directory.
2. are you sure that convertor script sees your images? If it can't find images, no annotations will be added to output json file.

Sorry for a late answer, I've just found that you are trying to convert from LS to COCO, instead of COCO => LS.

Check this message:
HumanSignal/label-studio#2806 (comment)

and this YOLO => LS guide:
https://github.com/heartexlabs/label-studio-converter#yolo-to-label-studio-converter
COCO should be similar.

Thank you for your great instructions, I think we will use it for our docs about coco import.
BTW I've updated this part of Local storage docs, hope it's more clear now.

--input should be a directory also. I'm getting further, but the code raises an error on this line where it tries to get the result attribute from an annotation.

It doesn't seem as if result is part of annotation according to their schema?

Neither are completed_by, created_at, updated_at, lead_time.

Thank you for your great instructions, I think we will use it for our docs about coco import.感谢您的精彩指示，我想我们会将其用于有关可可导入的文档。 BTW I've updated this part of Local storage docs, hope it's more clear now.顺便说一句，我已经更新了本地存储文档的这一部分，希望现在更清楚了。

Based on your post (HumanSignal/label-studio#2806), I have done the following
python -m venv env
source env/bin/activate
git clone https://github.com/heartexlabs/label-studio-converter.git
cd label-studio-converter
pip install -e .

label-studio-converter import coco -h # just print help

label-studio-converter import coco -i your-input-file.json -o output.json

I've tagged the generated xml and put my image under /home/wjt/data/medical_pic
The data source is also set, but the image still cannot be displayed
Please also help me explain how to do the following
