Please update readme #3

Closed JeanAzzopardi closed 8 years ago

I think the readme hasn't been updated in a while.

E.g. this instruction: # ./bin/sync_openalpr_source.sh ~/work/lp/openalpr

Is invalid as there are now 2 scripts in the bin directory which handle the syncing.

In case somebody is looking for a way to get the latest version (at time of writing bcfd8459fc4e1edcbcc3c4f3c75c0d3e66c3c330) working, use these steps below:

  1. clone openalpr in your downloads folder with folder (or somewhere else, but then also change step 3)
  2. clone this repo somewhere
  3. edit the file bin/sync_from_openalpr_source.sh and change line 6 to: OPENALPR_SRC_DIR="$HOME/Downloads/openalpr"
  4. also change line 61 to: mkdir -p $INCLUDE_DIR (otherwise the sync script will fail)
  5. save and close bin/sync_from_openalpr_source.sh.
  6. run ./bin/sync_from_openalpr_source.sh from this repo's root
  7. run ./bin/build_dependencies.sh
  8. it works! :+1:

Hi @steffex,

Thanks for your feedback and sorry for the delay!

For v2 of this project, I have replaced the old instructions and bash scripts with a Ruby script to build the OpenALPR and dependency Frameworks, as well as the OpenALPR Xcode project. A sample app is included. These changes have been pushed to the master branch, and the old version has been moved to branch 1_0. Feel free to check out this new script and see if it works for you. I will no longer be working on or supporting the 1_0 codebase.
