Getting Started

NOTE:

By default the application runs by pulling the pre-built images. If you want to build the images locally and then run the application, set the flag:

REGISTRY=false

usage: make <command> REGISTRY=false (applicable for all commands like benchmark, benchmark-stream-density..)
Example: make run-demo REGISTRY=false

(If this is the first time, it will take some time to download videos, models, docker images and build images)

Step by step instructions:

Download the models using download_models/downloadModels.sh
```
make download-models
```
Update github submodules
```
make update-submodules
```
Download sample videos used by the performance tools
```
make download-sample-videos
```
Start Automated Self Checkout using the Docker Compose file.
```
make run-render-mode
```
The above series of commands can be executed using only one command:
```
make run-demo
```
5. To build the images locally step by step: - Follow the following steps:
```
make download-models REGISTRY=false
make update-submodules REGISTRY=false
make download-sample-videos
```
- Now build the pipeline-runner image locally:
```
make build REGISTRY=false
```
- Finally, start Automated self checkout using docker compose up.
```
make run-render-mode REGISTRY=false
```
- The above series of commands can be executed using only one command:
```
make run-demo REGISTRY=false
```

Verify Docker containers

Verify Docker images

docker ps --format 'table{{.Names}}\t{{.Status}}\t{{.Image}}'

Result:

NAMES                 STATUS          IMAGE
camera-simulator0     Up 12 seconds   jrottenberg/ffmpeg:4.1-alpine
src-ClientGst-1       Up 14 seconds   dlstreamer:dev
camera-simulator      Up 13 seconds   aler9/rtsp-simple-server

Verify Results

After starting Automated Self Checkout you will begin to see result files being written into the results/ directory. Here are example outputs from the 3 log files.

When pre-built images are used-
```
make down
```
When images are built locally-
```
