Binary Dist creator for opencv4nodejs
The ultimate goal of this project is to produce a local binary distribution of the excellent opencv4nodejs for use on the same of a very similar machine to the original build machine. Note that OpenCV builds May not be compatible across machines.
usage:
build a local opencv4nodejs
install this project and run with
npm start pathtoopencv4nodejs
or npm start pathtoopencv4nodejs pathtodestination
if not destination is specified, then it will create the binary distribution in pathtoopenscv4nodejsdistcreate/dist/
once the binary distribution is created, use npm install pathtodist to install the distribution into your project. Your project may be on the same or a very similar machine (depending on how opencv built). The binary is ~115Mbytes, compared to a full opencv4nodejs install of ~4Gbytes.
note: you must cv = require('opencv4nodejsdist') in your project to use tthe dist verison. e.g.:
try{
cv = require('opencv4nodejsdist');
} catch(e) {
cv = require('opencv4nodejs');
}
