OBJDetect

OBJDetect is a program made in Go as an example of how to use unildd library

Requirements

• Python >= 3.10
• Cargo
• Go >= 1.17

Installation

• Clone this git repository:

  git clone https://github.com/nix-enthusiast/objdetect

• Go into the repository:

  cd objdetect

• Run the build.py file:

  python3 build.py --build   # To build the program
  python3 build.py --run     # To directly run the program 
  python3 build.py --clean   # To remove the build directory
  

• Take the file named objdetect (or objdetect.exe in Windows) from the directory named build and put it anywhere you want!

⚠️ A Small Warning

Since it uses unildd library, the library has to be accessible by the program. To do it on

Windows:

You can put the library in any folder which is in the %PATH variable or put them in the same place

cp build\target\release\unildd.dll \the\folder\in\the\path\var
#or
cp build\target\release\unildd.dll \the\folder\which\includes\objdetect

Linux and macOS:

The same thing as what we do in Windows but the variable is:

• LD_LIBRARY_PATH for Linux¹
• DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH for macOS²

cp build/target/release/unildd.dll /the/folder/in/the/variable
#or
cp build/target/release/unildd.dll /the/folder/which/includes/objdetect

Other OSes

If your OS is not listed on here, please take a look at the documentation of your OS to find the path and do the same (or similar since OSes work different) thing as what we did above
