Broadcasting with OpenCV and FastAPI

Description

This project is used as basic template for CV project with separate capture and processing microservices.

Now it has descent FPS without post-processing frame (resize, etc.)

Installing

Just git clone https://github.com/Drakrig/opencv-fastapi-video-broadcast.git and then cd opencv-fastapi-video-broadcast

Initial setup

If you want to test it you have to change couple things in docker compose file.

Optional

Create network fastapi with command docker network create --subnet=10.10.10.0/24 fastapi

1. In streamer part change network to you desired (default or created). May skip if using you did optional step above.
2. In capture part change - "~/Videos/:/mnt/" to format "{path/to/folder/with/test/video}:/mnt/". Be sure that video named test.mp4 or change it in capture/main.py to your desired.
3. If you skip optional step, in networks section change network settings according to yours

Testing

Simply docker compose up or docker-compose up. It should work out the box. In console click on http://0.0.0.0:80 and watch your video. It might take couple seconds to load it.
