Does it work on no-screen environment? #25

Open MewX opened 7 years ago

MewX commented 7 years ago

I check the official website, it requires: X11, but it does nothing for a non-screen VPS.

When I run cacaview, it outputs cacaview: unable to initialise libcaca (I've installed with sudo permission.)

All programs except cacafire didn't work. Even img2txt showed: unable to load subject01.centerlight.png which is known as a working image.

Could you please tell my whether it works on a non-screen environment?

Thanks in advance!

Can you maybe provide the output of ./configure when you built libcaca? It looks like libraries are missing.

This indicates that no rendering library is available. You should install at least one of libslang-dev or libncurses-dev for terminal output.

shouldnt it be fatal if no rendering library at all is detected ?

samhocevar commented 7 years ago

No, libcaca has a lot of non-rendering features. img2txt is an example program that does not use the display functions. Also, such plugins could be installed separately.

MewX commented 7 years ago

Hi, thanks, I installed the libncurses-dev package. Then it worked, and it didn't show cannot load libcaca any more.

However, when I tried to use cacaview to open a bmp file, it showed Error loading 'hairstyle.bmp'. Only BMP is supported. in the center of the screen. And this file was just 900KB.

Before that, I tried some jpeg files, and got the same error.

$ img2txt -W 80 yaleallsmall_ori.jpg
img2txt: unable to load yaleallsmall_ori.jpg
$ img2txt -W 80 yaleallsmall_ori.bmp
img2txt: unable to load yaleallsmall_ori.bmp

In addition, img2txt still doesn't work.

I tried installing imlib2, but it now cannot be built:

In file included from ../src/common-image.c:21:0,
                 from trifiller.c:14:
/usr/local/include/Imlib2.h:26:22: fatal error: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory
 #include <X11/Xlib.h>
                      ^
compilation terminated.

P.S. When building freetype2 (used by imlib2), there was an option to disable X server by passing --without-x.

samhocevar commented 7 years ago

This is a problem with your version of imlib. If its header Imlib2.h requires X11/Xlib.h then that header should be present on the system, too.

MewX commented 7 years ago

Oh, yeah, thanks, you're right! I removed the Xlib dependency, and libcaca could be compiled successfully again.

But still doesn't work, showing Error loading 'hairstyle.bmp' or Error loading 'hairstyle.jpg'. The good thing is that it doesn't show Only BMP is supported. now!

What's the current problem do you think?

Update:

I installed xorg-x11-devel, the problem above remained. It showed Loadingyaleallsmall_ori.bmp'at the beginning, then changed toError loading xxxx`.

rofl0r commented 7 years ago

in case you just wanna look at some pics in the terminal you could also try https://github.com/rofl0r/conpix . doesn't have any X11 deps.

MewX commented 7 years ago

Thanks! I tried conpix, and my git-bash and ubuntu on Windows 10 terminal went to messes. All followed inputs are invisible, so weird :/

This is what the message looked like exactly:

Error in pixScaleGeneral: pixt not madened
Error in pixOctreeColorQuant: pixs not defined

BTW, cacademo works perfectly! Just cacaview and img2txt cannot read files properly.

Anyway, I guess it might be the reason of AWZ's OS. I'll try it on my Arch then, and will let you know the results. Thanks again!

P.S. The "always" results of cacaview: snipaste_20170520_235337

On my Arch Linux, it worked perfectly with a pop-up X-server window. But for this VPS, it doesn't work :/

as far as conpix is concerned, it would probably work if you use it with xterm( export TERM=xterm-256color ). but it's probably not appropriate to discuss this here, so if you're interested and still have problems with it, we should bring further conpix-related discussion to its own issue tracker.

Alright, thanks! One more question, does this program have a logging output? (Or, how could I turn it on?)

rofl0r commented 7 years ago

if you mean conpix with "this program" then no; it's a very simple app (basically a proof-of-concept), no logging output, no zoom, only a single pic, etc. so if you need any advanced functionality you should work on getting libcaca doing what you want. maybe add some debug output to where it says "Error loading"... in the source code.
