Step by step installation guide for Linux?

Asked by Simon Chase

For noobs like me, a step-by-step installation guide for Linux devices would be amazing. More specifically for me, how do I install on a Raspberry Pi?

This is what I have:
http://www.sikulix.com/specials/files/linux-setup-prerequisites.html

More I cannot do. It is especially not possible for me, to check and/or document the setup for every Linux flavour.
Due to time and knowledge, I will only check for Ubuntu.

For the rest it might be possible to find more in the net (e.g. stackoverflow).
Do not look only for SikuliX, but also for OpenCV.

Today I tried to run Sikuli on latest rasbian but seems like libVisionProxy cannot be used under ARM processor. At least this is the error I am getting

[error (10/8/17 10:44:10 PM)] RunTimeSETUP: Problematic lib: /home/pi/.Sikulix/SikulixLibs_201703291041/libVisionProxy.so (...TEMP...)
[error (10/8/17 10:44:10 PM)] RunTimeSETUP: libVisionProxy.so loaded, but it might be a problem with needed dependent libraries
ERROR: ...TEMP...: ...TEMP...: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (Possible cause: can't load IA 32-bit .so on a ARM-bit platform)

@TestMechanic
Yes, obviously, the bundled libraries cannot be used, since they are built for x86 (Ubuntu).

So you have to follow the procedure, to compile and build from the sources.

But how do you compile and build from the sources...

I tried "options 2 buildv notes"

and got:

----------- COMPILING
----- cvgui.cpp
----- finder.cpp
----- pyramid-template-matcher.cpp
----- sikuli-debug.cpp
----- tessocr.cpp
----- vision.cpp
----- visionJAVA_wrap.cxx
----------- LINKING

Unfortunately it is no clear for me what is the error

I am sorry, but I cannot help you, since I decided some years ago, to leave that low level C++ stuff behind me.

Be sure, to link against an OpenCV 2.4.x library package. OpenCV 3.x will not work with SikuliX 1.1.x.

Having the correct parts together, the build script should do its job - may be after necessary adjustments.

... but I generally do not understand the need for SikuliX on a Raspberry PI.

For me it is just a challenge :-)

@TestMechanic
... already thought so ;-) all the best.

Hey, @TestMechanic, if you make it work, I would be glad to know how ! I'm trying too to make SikuliX work on a Raspberry Pi.

Can you help with this problem?
