Getting Started¶
Windows¶
Download the Windows executable here: https://github.com/jdber1/opendrop/releases/tag/v3.1.6dev0
Installing as a Python package¶
Ubuntu 16.04+/Debian 9+¶
The unofficial opencv-python package can be installed using pip and is the easiest way to install the required OpenCV functionalities.
Alternatively, if on Ubuntu 17.10 (or later), the
python3-opencv
package is also available from the ‘Universe’ repository and can be installed with:sudo apt install python3-opencv
Follow the installation instructions here for installing PyGObject and GTK.
Use pip to install Opendrop from the repository by running:
pip install git+https://github.com/jdber1/opendrop.git
(You may need to use
pip3
to refer to the Python 3 version.)Run
pip uninstall opendrop
to uninstall.An
opendrop
script is installed into your PATH and the app can be launched by enteringopendrop
in the command line.
macOS¶
Install the latest version of Python 3 and pip. You may like to do so using a package manager like MacPorts or Homebrew.
Install the unofficial opencv-python package by running:
pip install opencv-python
(Make sure
pip
refers to your Python 3’s pip installation.)Alternatively, OpenCV and its python bindings can also be installed using the opencv Homebrew formula or opencv MacPorts port.
If Homebrew was used to install Python 3, PyGObject and GTK can also be installed by running:
brew install pygobject3 gtk+3
or if MacPorts was used, run:
sudo port install py35-gobject3 gtk3
(Instead of the
py35-
prefix, usepy36-
orpy37-
if Python 3.6/3.7 is the version installed.)
Use pip to install OpenDrop from the repository by running:
pip install git+https://github.com/jdber1/opendrop.git
Run
pip uninstall opendrop
to uninstall.An
opendrop
script is installed into your PATH and the app can be launched by enteringopendrop
in the command line.
