InsightFace PKL API v1.0

This project provides a FastAPI-based service for processing images, generating facial embeddings using InsightFace, and storing them in a single .pkl file. The API includes functionality for uploading images, cleaning temporary files, and downloading generated .pkl files.

Key Features:

• Accepts multiple image uploads.
• Combines facial embeddings from multiple images into a single .pkl file.
• Automatically cleans temporary files and results older than one hour.
• Provides download access to the generated .pkl files.

Quick Start:

1. Install dependencies with:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Start the API server:

   uvicorn app:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8001

3. Use the /create_pkl/{filename} endpoint to upload images and generate a .pkl file.
4. Download the result from /results/{filename}.pkl.

Example Usage:

• Create a PKL file:

  curl -X POST "http://localhost:8001/create_pkl/person1" \
       -F "images=@image1.jpg" \
       -F "images=@image2.jpg"

• Download the PKL file:

  curl -O "http://localhost:8001/results/person1.pkl"

File Management:
The application manages:

• temp/: Temporary storage for uploaded files, automatically cleaned every hour.
• results/: Stores generated .pkl files, also cleaned every hour.
