How to install python wrapper on Windows?

[KeCh96]

The tutorial says:

When running cmake-gui, select the BUILD_PYTHON_BINDINGS option

But I cannot understand what exactly I should do? Do I need to install cmake first? Then run the cmake-gui?

I am confused because I have never used cmake... Could you please tell me the concrete steps for installing python wrapper on Windows?

[zivsha]

Hi @KeCh96 ,
The instructions there are a guide to building the python wrapper, not installing it.
If you want to install the wrapper you can download the Intel.RealSense.SDK.exe from the release tab and after installing, copy pyrealsense2.pyd and realsense2.dll from C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel RealSense SDK 2.0\bin next to your script.
If you want to build the wrapper from source (i.e - compile the code) then you need to follow the step in the python wrapper instructions (which I agree should we should rename from "Installation Guide").
In order to build from source, you first need to follow the building from source guide for windows and then continue to build the python wrapper.

[KeCh96]

Thank you very much!! @zivsha

Unluckily, when I copied pyrealsense2.pyd and realsense2.dll and import pyrealsense2, I got an error:

ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found

As you mentioned in the guide, this error may caused by python versions mismatch. I use python 3, but the precompiled binaries shipped with the installer assume python2.7. Is there any solution for python3 wrapper?

[zivsha]

Unfortunately no, the only way at the moment is by building it from source. We are planing to provide a PyPI package that will allow you to simply pip install pyrealsense2 and it will have both python 2 and 3 support, but it is still work in progress...

Hy,
Here is how I compile the python bindings for python 3.6 x64

1. make sure you have the sdk installed
2. make sure you have visual studio with c++ components
3. open msbuild shell
4. cd to the repertory of the python wrappers
5. run cmake "." -G "your visual studio version"
6. open the vs project generated. You will have to add some librairies (librealsense...)
7. compile it. It will generate a pyrealsense2.pyd
8. drag this file in the correct folder regarding your installation with the dll mentioned in your post (for me it's in python36/Lib/site-packages)

It's working for me. Unfortunatly running a basic script with a small definition is eating all my cpu. Seems to be a bug according to zivsha.

I will be interested in your results ;)

[KeCh96]

It looks complicated to build python3 wrapper on Windows... What about building python3 wrapper on Linux? Will it be easier? @zivsha @Taprik

The tutorial says:

Install Python and its development files via apt-get (Python 2 and 3 both work)
sudo apt-get install python python-dev or sudo apt-get install python3 python3-dev
Note: The project will only use Python2 if it can't use Python3

Does it mean that building python3 wrapper is also complicated on Linux?

[zivsha]

The steps for Linux/Windows are pretty much identical.
Usually it is easier on Linux since common paths are used if you make install stuff they are easily found by CMake and the compiler (libs and headers). So try to build on Linux and let me know if we can assist

[KeCh96]

My project can work on both Windows and Linux. According to my project, I only need a solution for any of the following 2 problems:
1. Building python3 wrapper on Windows10
2. Building python2 or python3 wrapper on Ubuntu16.04

I tried many methods, and my problems are as below:

1. Building python3 wrapper on Windows10
   As you say, the only way to build python3 wrapper on Windows is to use CMake and build from source. I guess that building python2 wrapper on Linux may be easier, so I give up Windows solution.

2. Building python2 or python3 wrapper on Ubuntu16.04
   I followed the tutorial for Linux . I run realsense-viewer and launched the SR300 GUI successfully. Then I run sudo apt-get install librealsense2-dev and sudo apt-get install librealsense2-dbg successfully.
   However, when I wanted to run g++ -std=c++11 filename.cpp -lrealsense2, I did not know where the "filename.cpp" is . So I skipped that step.
   Then I browsed python wrapper tutorial for Linux and found I need to install CMake. Is there any method to build python wrapper without using CMake?
   I want to copy pyrealsense2.pyd and realsense2.dll to my program. But at this moment, I cannot find pyrealsense2.pyd and realsense2.dll in my system. Did I have some step missing?

   After these attempts, I found another tutorial pyrealsense 2.2, and pray this can be an easy python wrapper building tool. But pip install pyrealsense run into an error:

I am almost crazy... I wonder the relationship between these tutorials. If I want to build python wrapper on Linux, which tutorial should I follow?

Could you please help me? @zivsha

[zivsha]

Hi @KeCh96 ,
I'll try to make some sense for you.

1. pyrealsense 2.2 is a wrapper for the previous version of the librealsense SDK (legacy branch), it is a community supported wrapper, but again, for an older version (1.12.1). It does not work with SDK version 2.x.

2. As I've said there is no Linux package for the python wrapper we have for the SDK (talking about v 2.x now). This means that you cannot get the python wrapper with sudo apt-get. The the tutorial for Linux you followed installs the SDK on your system (it installs headers and shared-libraries .so) so that you may link your program to use the SDK, this is what the g++ -std=c++11 filename.cpp -lrealsense2 step is - it is how to compile your program which has 1 file called filename.cpp which requires linkage to librealsense2.so (or realsense2.dll on windows). Which brings me to number 3...

3. Windows and Linux use different formats for libraries, so you cannot take pyrealsense2.pyd and realsense2.dll (which works on Windows) and use it in Linux (which needs pyrealsense2.so and realsense2.so)

4. "Building from source" means you need the source files (of the SDK), and you need to compile them into libraries. CMake is used to create a "buildable" file which you can use to compile the project. If you want to build anything from this SDK from source - you must use CMake, and then compile the output (either make in Linux or build with visual studio on Windows).
   In order to build the python wrapper, you need to be able to build the SDK library (realsense2) with CMake, and if you are able to do that, you can then also add a flag to CMake to build the python wrapper (using the -DBUILD_PYTHON_BINDINGS flag), and then compile again. On Linux , you should be able to do the following (assuming you have all prerequisites mentioned in the Linux guide :

sudo apt-get install cmake
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense.git
cd librealsense
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../ -DBUILD_PYTHON_BINDINGS=true
make -j4
After this step you'll have 3 files in the build folder starting with the name librealsense2.so
To find the python wrapper libraries:
cd ./wrappers/python
and you should find 3 files starting with the name pyrealsense2.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so

[KeCh96]

Thank you very much!! @zivsha

I followed your guide, but faced some error when make -j4:

Then I found librealsense2.so in the build file, and its color is light blue in the ubuntu common line, which means a symbolic link file. Then I run cdll.LoadLibrary('librealsense2.so') in python IDE successfully. But I do not know what to do next. Could you please tell me how to use this 'librealsense2.so' to capture images in python?

Then I went to ./wrappers/python, and found pyrealsense2.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so, but its color is red, which means a compressed file. I run cdll.LoadLibrary('pyrealsense2.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so') in python IDE and got an error:

OSError: pyrealsense2.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have written the path in /etc/ld.so.conf but the error still occur. I wonder whether the file is complied successfully or not?

/home/chengke/librealsense/wrappers/python/third_party/pybind11/include/pybind11/common.h:70:20: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory

You are getting this because you did not follow step 2 in Python wrapper guide:

2. Install Python and its development files via apt-get (Python 2 and 3 both work)
   sudo apt-get install python python-dev or sudo apt-get install python3 python3-dev

The rest of the errors are because the build itself was not successful

[KeCh96]

I solved the error Python.h: No such file or directory by adding include path, and run make -j4 again. Now I can run cdll.LoadLibrary('pyrealsense2.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so') successfully.

If I want to capture images with python, what should I do next?

In the Python wrapper guide, you can just import pyrealsense2 as rs and capture images from SR300. But when I run import pyrealsense2, I got ImportError: No module named pyrealsense2. I seem to need a file named pyrealsense2.py, but I cannot find it. I am confused about what should I do at this moment? @zivsha

[zivsha]

You do not need pyrealsense2.py, you need pyrealsense2 module (which is in pyrealsense2.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so). Try to run python from the folder in which pyrealsense2...so is located

[KeCh96]

Thank you very much!! @zivsha

I get error when I import pyrealsense2.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu, because the name contains '-'. After renaming this file, I build python2 wrapper on Ubuntu successfully!!

[zivsha]

Hooray ❗️ 😃

Hope this thread helps others, and that we finish work on python distribution soon.

[amm385]

In case it helps future wanderers, I too ran into the Python.h: No such file or directory issue and had no luck installing python3-dev or even python3.5-dev. I followed this tip and identified 4 lines of code that needed an update:

1. librealsense/wrappers/python/third_party/pybind11/include/pybind11/detail/common.h:111-113
2. librealsense/wrappers/python/third_party/pybind11/include/pybind11/chrono.h:17

For each of the 4 lines, I changed #import <xxxx.h> to #import <python3.5/xxxx.h>

After this, make ran successfully. As mentioned above, the final step after make install was to find pyrealsense2.cpython-36m-aarch64-linux-gnu.so (in my case, in /usr/local/lib) and change its name to pyrealsense2.so.

FWIW I believe this is because I have both python2.7 and python3.5 installed but can't be sure
