Build Instructions

Linux

One time setup

Install dependencies

sudo apt install build-essential cmake git ninja-build \
    libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev libv4l-dev \
    mesa-common-dev xorg-dev

Install opencv

cd ~/repos/
git clone https://github.com/opencv/opencv.git
git clone https://github.com/opencv/opencv_contrib.git

cd ~/repos/opencv
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE \
    -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local \
    -D INSTALL_C_EXAMPLES=ON \
    -D INSTALL_PYTHON_EXAMPLES=ON \
    -D OPENCV_GENERATE_PKGCONFIG=ON \
    -D OPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=~/repos/opencv_contrib/modules \
    -D BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON ..

make -j8
sudo make install

Build

cd ~/repos/
git clone --recurse-submodules https://gitlab.com/FlibidyDibidy/graphite.git

cd ~/repos/graphite
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -G "Ninja" ..

ninja -j8

The main executable will then be in ~/repos/graphite/build/graphite/graphite

Windows

Initial one time setup

• Install Visual Studio 2019 community edition, other versions might work
• Install cmake for windows: cmake.org/download, add to path for ease
• Install anaconda python distribution, make default / put on path

Build opencv (should only need to do this once)
