Add build/compile instructions. #41

Closed kermitas closed 7 years ago

kermitas commented 8 years ago

Guys, please add build/compile instructions to main README.md.

Especially how one can compile and run it under Ubuntu (that can be on Pine64, Raspberry Pi or other ARM based computer).

UFOID commented 8 years ago

Sorry. I haven't added any proper build steps to the readme. I should do that. It's a Qt project so for Ubuntu there is a simple installer. All you need besides that is OpenCV and either FFmpeg or avcon.

kermitas commented 8 years ago

Thanks for the info.

As a good start to build documentation - and if you want - you can provide here very shortly how I should start with UFO-Detector compilation under Ubuntu (Qt, OpenCV and FFmpeg I will install by myself).

And one more question: how to use UFO-Detector on headless devices? Can I setup it and run via SSH? (I would like to check how Pine64 works with UFO-Detector but all of my Pines are headless.)

UFOID commented 8 years ago

There isn't a headless mode implemented right now. Once I have some free time available I will publish a first version of UFO Detector for RaspberryPi which will eventually have a headless mode (and document the build steps properly. Many to-do's left).

Ok, I understand and keeping my fingers crossed. And can you help me here, now with some hints how to compile sources? (I will be doing that on Ubuntu, probably on Pine64; to start and setup I will connect it to some screen via HDMI)

UFOID commented 8 years ago

If you have Qt (and OpenCV) installed on your Ubuntu simply open the project file Detector.pro in Qt. It should load all the resources and allow for a one click build. Check opencv.pri for the defined INCLUDEPATH&LIBS

Headless mode / command line interface is in issue https://github.com/UFOID/UFO-Detector/issues/29.
