Installation

To get started with tiny-data you need to enable the Custom Search API from Google and export the variables SEARCH_ENGINE_ID and CUSTOM_SEARCH_API_KEY to your environment.

Note: google limits the number of requests to 100/day which inherently puts a cap on the number of images you can download.

The package itself can be downloaded from crates.io by running:

cargo install tiny-data

The python bindings for the package can be downloaded from pypi with additional features for post-download filtering using CLIP by running:

pip install tinydata[ml]

Make sure you also install the appropriate version of torch from here if you want to use open clip.
