Hi There
Hi! I made this tool so I can have some nice reports for my dailies. I hope you find it useful too :)
The tool generates a report for a whole folder (the one that has all the video files, usually the copied video folder from camera) as a HTML file and optionaly it can also do a PDF from the HTML file, I'll clarify that bellow. The script uses gradio as an UI so you'll have to copy and paste the IP address shown in terminal to your explorer, this is done locally so don't worry.
The script asks for an Input path and the number of folders it has to go up so it can create a "Reports" folder there, the default value is 2 and minimum is 1, this is useful for me because normally I create a "Footage" folder in my project. The script will keep the original video folder name by creating a subfolder with the same name inside "Reports".
After a successful Do HTML run you can copy the HTML Path text from the webui and paste it to a new tab for review, then you could create a PDF with the Do PDF button if everything is correctly installed.
before anything you'll need to install:
- ffmpeg as an environment variable if you are on windows (you should be able to use it on terminal)
- ghostscript for the PDF feature. You can download it here
If you use a mac I think both could be installed with brew but I haven't try if ghostcript works, ffmpeg worked as expected.
You'll need Python 3.10, probably earlier versions should work too. If you are on windows and don't care about "virtual environments" just run flickSnap.bat If you want to have a "virtual environment" for this script for some reason just edit the bat file and delete the SKIP_VENV value, in this way it will create a VENV and activate it for the script.
Finally I you are on a mac or linux system just run launch.py from your terminal. If for some reason it gives you any problem try installing all the requirements from requirements.txt via pip install and then run main.py.
Why not :P
