Make sure you're using python 3
On command line:
cd to FaceReconstruction-master
pip install -r requirements.txt
python manage.py runserver
The above runs the server on http://127.0.0.1:8000/, paste it to the browser to view the website.
To submit/download files and do face reconstruction on arbitrary faces, an extra tcp server needs to be run, the steps are (before you upload files on the web-page):
clone https://github.com/YadiraF/PRNet
move serverScript.py to the directory of the cloned library
cd to the cloned libarary
use python2.7
pip install -r requirements
run serverScript.py
html is located at: \index.html
css is located at: FaceReconstruction-master\modelEval\static\modelEval\css
js is located at: FaceReconstruction-master\modelEval\static\modelEval\js
There are sometimes {% ... %} or {{...}} in the html
For example:
{% static 'modelEval/js/jqeury.js' %}
{%if result%}yes{% else %}no{% endif %}
{{greetings}}
These are called tags. It's a DJANGO feature for dynamic web page. Django will parse the html first to remove tags and generate proper html, and display the parsed html as a response.
back-end code to deal with url requests mainly resides in FaceReconstruction-master\FaceReconstruction-master\modelEval\views
def index(request):
...
This is the function that handles url requests.
