gxccd
Rust wrapper around gxccd
C library.
Contributing
This repository is incomplete. All "advanced" features of the original library have been left out as they are unsupported. All other functions have been wrapped, but not all have been tested, though this is the goal. Idiomatic rust testing is complicated by the necessity of a connected camera, and by the opacity of the original library.
Setup
git clone https://github.com/jcranney/gxccd-wrap
cd gxccd-wrap
cargo build --release
This will build the main gxccd
rust program, which connects to a camera, prints some states of the camera, and saves some dark and light images to disk. Obviously this will fail if you do not have a camera connected, but it should fail cleanly with the message:
$ gxccd
Error: "Cannot find USB camera"
If you get some other large output regarding libraries, you probably need to configure your dependencies. If you get something else entirely, please raise an issue.
Dependencies
libusb-1.0
This is a readily available library required by the libgxccd
library. If you don't already have it, you can install it by (e.g.):
apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev
libgxccd
This crate is packaged with a copy of the original gxccd C library binary available from Moravian Instruments. This is permitted by the libgxccd
license (reproduced here below). For now, only the x86_64 Linux (64-bit) binaries are shipped with this crate, but you can replace them with the version matching your machine by replacing ./lib/libgxccd.a
with the same file for your machine, downloaded from the Moravian Instruments download page. If this doesn't work for you, let me know by raising an issue.
The Moravian Instruments (MI) camera library.
