Add option to suppress browser from opening #35

Open harveyslash opened 7 years ago

Since many ML tasks are done on a remote server (and possibly, the cloud), an option to prevent browser from opening should be added in the launch function. Also , what about an upload option to test new images ?

Option to not open a browser is a good call - let me know if you want to send a PR for it as I'm a little caught up this week. Should only take a couple of lines though.
Not sure what you mean by option to upload an image - if you're running it on a remote server uploading a file to a folder and refreshing the browser would already work. I think a gui for uploading images is pretty pointless at this point, as it will be just a simple utility to save a file to a folder - what's your use case?

harveyslash commented 7 years ago

I use this not only to visualise my convnets, but also as a quick way to test my outputs ( as it seems to resize input images automatically). So an upload option(maybe even a download from url) would allow me to check my model from a local computer.

Also , I am not 100% sure at the moment , but the prediction classes seem to be wrong. If I am sure, i will open another issue

I see - is something like scp-ing your image file to your remote machine somehow difficult with your setup?

harveyslash commented 7 years ago

its not exactly difficult. But when I show other people the convnet , its hard for them to actually do anything with their own images. So theyre stuck with viewing the files that are already there in the directory.

Ah I see the use case now - yes I agree this would be nice, I made this task a couple of weeks ago and had something like this in mind as well. Let's use this ticket to track your auto-open-browser request, and open a separate issue to track the image upload request.
