Package for building OpenCV 4.5.4 including Python 3 bindings from the official sources.
Readme
Unofficial OpenCV builder for Python.
This package aims at building OpenCV 4.5.4 with Python bindings from the official sources. It provides a simple command line interface for starting the process of downloading the official sources, configuring the build dependencies, compiling and installing the resulting CV2 shared object within a virtual environment.
In contrast to opencv-python it will not provide any wheels and therefore the installation / build process will be by far slower (depending on the actual system performance).
IMPORTANT NOTE
Depending on the usage and system dependencies, the on-the-fly build output can contain video and GUI functionality and the contrib package.
Note: PyPy (7.3.0) is not supported yet due to missing path variables in module sysconfig.
poetry add cvbuilderAfter installing the package via pip / pipenv / poetry, you can manually invoke cvbuilder commands.
cvbuilder system --enable-gui --enable-video
The do-it-all command is:
cvbuilder build
or if you already downloaded the source zip files in the default temporary directory or need to rerun the process in a clean way:
cvbuilder build --clean
If you need to run the individual steps (i.e. for debugging) the following commands are provided.
cvbuilder download
cvbuilder configure [--tmpdir XYZ]
cvbuilder make
cvbuilder install
cvbuilder dump
You can run the check command:
cvbuilder check
in order to check whether the build process and installation worked.
Now everything should be up and running and you should be able to work with OpenCV:
poetry run pythonimport cv2FAQs
