it's a wrapper around pyautogui and opencv2, to allow you to easily add cross-platform image searching capabilities to your project.
See the documentation for examples. If you have any questions feel free to contact me.
Documentation : https://brokencode.io/how-to-easily-image-search-with-python/
This is the currently maintained package, so if you've come from https://pypi.org/project/python-imagesearch-drov0/
you are at the right place
pip install python-imagesearch
You may need to install dependencies depending on your OS:
sudo pip3 install python3-xlib
sudo apt-get install scrot python3-tk python3-dev python3-opencv
No setup should be needed
brew install opencv
pip3 install -U pyobjc-core
pip3 install -U pyobjc
I have not tested myself as I don't own a mac, but it was tested and documented in this issue : #5
The simplest example to do image search with python is this:
from python_imagesearch.imagesearch import imagesearch
pos = imagesearch("./github.png")
if pos[0] != -1:
print("position : ", pos[0], pos[1])
else:
print("image not found")
this searches for one occurrence of the image “github.png” on the screen and print its x/y position
