Installation and use

BRImage now comes with a very minimal command line interface, usable with

brimage -h

pypi

I've made the project available with pip (you can view the project here):

pip install BRImage

and run with

brimage

Building from source

Requires SWIG.

First, clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/Dustpancake/BRImage && cd BRImage

It is recommended to use a virtual environment

# *nix
python3 -m venv venv && source venv/bin/activate

Generate the SWIG files; for this we require numpy.i:

curl "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/numpy/numpy/master/tools/swig/numpy.i" > BRImage/clib/numpy.i

Then we generate the .py and .cxx files with

cd BRImage/clib \
    && swig -c++ -python -py3 algorithms.i \
    && cd -

We then build with

python setup.py build_ext --inplace

or install into the environment with

pip install .

• Running the script

To run when build from source:

python BRImage

If installed, use

brimage
