no such file or directory: vvtool

[Bobkk-k]

when I run the command 'python inference.py example/example1.ply --cam cam0' , a new error rise. It shows that No such file or directory: 'vvtool'. Where is the vvtool? Is there some preparation I didn't do? Or, Is that some files I put wrong place？By the way, I have downloaded the above-mentioned file named 'VDVNet_CascadePPP_epoch30.pth' and I put it in checkpoints folder. Is that right? Can you tell me how to do？Thank you！

Hi Bob,

seems you didn't build the vvtool, please check the script called setup_tools.sh.

The successful case is shown here:

root@sxs-XPS-8930:/workspace/tools/bin# ls
OpenMVS  o3d_vvcreator.py  vvtool

I built this from scratch with docker fully automatic within 20 minutes. This is a highly suggested approach.

Thank you, Shaun

I found only OpenMVS in bin and I spent a lot of time to build this with docker.

Additionally, many errors occur as shown in the images below. (Two steps preceding this step showed success)

I have three files like you but I still get the same error. I build both openMVS and vvtool by scratch

rosuser@a178-linux:~/ws/vis2mesh/tools/bin$ ls OpenMVS o3d_vvcreator.py vvtool

I get the same error as above python inference.py example/example1.ply --cam cam0

rosuser@a178-linux:~/ws/vis2mesh$ python inference.py example/example1.ply --cam cam0

Any inputs will are really appreciated, thank you

Thanks for your feedback.

I suppose you are running in your host computer rather than docker so the environment variables is not properly defined.

I have two options for you to address this:

1. You can add the folders that include 'vvtool', 'o3d_vvcreator.py' and 'ReconstructMesh' into the PATH: export PATH="YOUR_FOLDER:$PATH"

2. Open inference.py and you will find a function like around line 23: This simply returns a dict that contains the path of the tool. You can simply overwrite it Toolset['vvtool'] = PATH_ON_YOUR_COMPUTER

def findToolset(dep_tools = ['vvtool','o3d_vvcreator.py','ReconstructMesh']):
    Toolset=dict()
    print('#Available Toolset#')
    for t in dep_tools:
        Toolset[t] = t
        assert(Toolset[t]!=None)
        print(f'{t}: {Toolset[t]}')
    return Toolset

Let me know if they works.

Hi Shaun, thank you for your quick reply. By adding the folder into the PATH the above error was solved with the vvtool.

However, my 'tools' folder doesn't have the Reconstruction Mesh folded inside it. I couldn't find the folder in the repo as well.

What does this Reconstruction Mesh folder contain? Can you please explain?

Really appreciate your time.

Best Regards

@impaidk Please check tools/bin/OpenMVS or OpenMVS/bin/

@sxsong1207 hello, when I run the command 'docker build . -t vis2mesh ', a error rise.Could you tell me why? Thank you!!
