OpenCV installation

Question

We have a Cordova angular mobile app on which we are trying to achieve automation testing and as team is not familiar with javascript -trying to avoid using protractor tool. Instead can we use ngWebDriver with appium and selenium with testng framework

Solution

Opencv requires a lot of dependencies to be built from sources. The easy way would be to install all the build dependencies using this command:

sudo apt-get build-dep opencv

And restart the cmake configuration.

Sure you can. It's probably legal. As to whether you should or what other options there are: that makes this question a matter of personal preferences, which is off-topic here. Please read How to Ask and edit your question accordingly.

and how can i restart the cmake configuration?

[Sylvain Pineau]

Just type cmake ../ as you did during your first attempt.

Hi @OussemaMoslah that output looks like it worked. Once cmake is complete, the next step is to run make, then sudo make install. See step 3 in the installation instructions docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/introduction/linux_install/…

Please avoid apt-get -y when proposing package installation, so that people can evaluate what is being installed.

E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list Got this error while installing on raspberry pi :/

@AkshayLAradhya: Try to enable universe (see How do I enable the “Universe” repository?)

@Avio I have mistakenly put the apt-get part, I meant to just put the list.
