isk-daemon: Content-based image database server

The isk-daemon package doesn’t need to be compiled since it’s all made up of python code.

What needs to be compiled is the net.imgseek.imgdb module, and here are some instructions.

Requirements

• Linux: isk-daemon compiles agains ImageMagick and Python, so these are the packages you should have installed on the test machine:

• python 2.5
• pytho-dev 2.5
• libmagick
• libmagick++
• libmagic-dev
• gcc
• g++

• Windows: The following must be installed:

• Python 2.5 or later.
• ImageMagick-6.3.5-5-Q8-windows-dl (on the setup wizard, remember to check the option “Update executable search path” and the “Install C++ libraries and headers)
• Microsoft Visual Studio

Instructions

Linux: Compile running the command “python setup.py compile”

Windows: Open the imgdb solution under the imgdb-msvc and compile it. You may need to adjust the include and libraries dir for the solution to point to the correct locations of Python, Java (if you want the Java bindings) and ImageMagick.
