Installation

Requirements

• Python ≥ 3.10

• A working OpenCV install (the wheel opencv-python is fine)

• Qt offscreen libraries for headless test runs (Linux only): libegl1 libgl1 libxkbcommon-x11-0 libdbus-1-3 libxcb-cursor0

From source

git clone https://github.com/zerotonin/pyLACE.git
cd pyLACE
pip install -e ".[dev]"

The [dev] extra adds pytest, pytest-cov and ruff.

Verifying the install

pytest
pylace-detect --help

Running the headless test suite (no display)

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=offscreen pytest

This is what the tests GitHub Actions workflow does on every push.
