# PyPTV
Python GUI for the OpenPTV library `liboptv`

![PyPI - Version](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/pyptv)





**PyPTV** or otherwise called **OpenPTV-Python** is the Python GUI for [OpenPTV](http://www.openptv.net). It is based on `traits`, `traitsui`, `chaco`, `enable` and `pyface` from Enthought Inc. and provides an UI *interface* the OpenPTV library that includes all the core algorithms (correspondence, tracking, calibration, etc.) written in ANSI C and has Python bindings using Cython.  

Both PyPTV and the OpenPTV library are in the development phase and continuously refactored. Please follow the development on the community mailing list:

  openptv@googlegroups.com

## Installation instructions

Short version:

    pip install numpy
    python -m pip install pyptv --index-url https://pypi.fury.io/pyptv --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple


Detailed instructions for various platforms are in our documentation:

## Working with plugins

Plugins is a system of extensions to PyPTV without the need to change the GUI

1. copy the `sequence_plugins.txt` and `tracking_plugins.txt` to the working folder
2. copy the `plugins/` directory to the working folder
3. modify the code so it performs instead of the default sequence or default tracker
4. Open the GUI and Plugins -> Choose , then run the rest: Init -> Sequence 


Note, the specific branch `plugin_remback` requires installation of the `pip install rembg[cpu]` or `pip install rembg[gpu]`


### Developers:

**Version Management:**
- Bump version: ```python bump_version.py --patch```

**Publishing to PyPI:**
- See [DEPLOYMENT.md](DEPLOYMENT.md) for comprehensive deployment instructions using GitHub Actions and trusted publishing

**Legacy Manual Publishing:**
```bash
pip install build
python -m build
pip install dist/pyptv-*.whl  # Install the built wheel
pip install twine
python -m twine upload dist/*
```

## Compatibility Notes

### NumPy Compatibility
- Supported NumPy versions: >=2.0.0,<2.7
- NumPy 2.x required for optv 0.3.2+
- Tested with NumPy arrays in both float64 and uint8 formats
- Array operations maintained for image processing and coordinate transformations
- NumPy 2.x support requires chaco>=6.1.0 and enable>=6.1.0

### OpenPTV (optv) Compatibility
- Compatible with optv 0.3.2+
- optv 0.3.2+ requires NumPy >=2.0.0
- Core functionality tested with latest optv release
- Calibration and tracking functions verified

## Development Setup
For development work with latest NumPy:

```bash
conda create -n pyptv python=3.11
conda activate pyptv
conda install numpy>=1.23.5 optv>=0.3.0
pip install -e .
```
