Perceiving Systems Mesh Package
===============================
This package contains core functions for manipulating meshes and visualizing them.
It requires ``Python 3.5+`` and is supported on Linux and macOS operating systems.
The ``Mesh`` processing libraries support several of our projects such as
* [CoMA: Convolutional Mesh Encoders for Generating 3D Faces](http://coma.is.tue.mpg.de/)
* [FLAME: Learning a model of facial shape and expression from 4D scans](http://flame.is.tue.mpg.de/)
* [MANO: Modeling and Capturing Hands and Bodies Together](http://mano.is.tue.mpg.de/)
* [SMPL: A Skinned Multi-Person Linear Model](http://smpl.is.tue.mpg.de/)
* [VOCA: Voice Operated Character Animation](https://github.com/TimoBolkart/voca)
* [RingNet: 3D Face Shape and Expression Reconstruction from an Image](https://github.com/soubhiksanyal/RingNet)
Requirements
------------
You first need to install the `Boost <http://www.boost.org>`_ libraries.
You can compile your own local version.
On Windows/MSVC, you must download and compile it yourself.
On Linux you can simply install it via:
```
$ sudo apt-get install libboost-dev
```
On macOS:
```
$ brew install boost
```
Installation
------------
First, create a dedicated Python virtual environment and activate it:
```
$ python3 -m venv --copies my_venv
$ source my_venv/bin/activate
```
#### Linux/MacOS
You should then compile and install the ``psbody-mesh`` package using the Makefile.
If you are using the system-wide ``Boost`` libraries:
```
$ make all
```
or the libraries locally installed:
```
$ BOOST_ROOT=/path/to/boost/libraries make all
```
#### Windows
Since Makefile and the linux commands in it does not work on Windows, run the command below instead:
(remember to replace <path_to_your_boost> with your path to boost)
```
pip install --no-deps --install-option="--boost-location=<path_to_your_boost>" --verbose --no-cache-dir .
```
Note on MeshViewer: Windows users need a special version of PyOpenGL to use the MeshViewer, because the one automatically installed via PYPI does not include the required DLL.
please download the unofficial PyOpenGL wheel file from [here](https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pyopengl), uninstall the original version and install the new one by commands below:
```
pip uninstall pyOpenGL
pip install <the-name-of-your-wheel-file>
```
Testing
-------
To run the tests, simply do:
#### Linux/MacOS
```
$ make tests
```
#### Windows
```
python -m unittest -v
```
Documentation
-------------
A detailed documentation can be compiled using the Makefile:
```
$ make documentation
```
