Hi:

My streamlit app runs fine locally. I am doing image processing hence using opencv
But when I deploy the app it says :

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

Successfully built numpy blinker validators

Failed to build opencv-python-headless

ERROR: Could not build wheels for opencv-python-headless, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

I adjust according the recommendations forums before opencv but doesnt work

The entire code is on my github here is the link: GitHub - mcastiblanco1251/CV: Tratamiento de Imagenes
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Use in your requirements.txt file:

opencv-python-headless==4.5.4.60

Now it appear this:

ERROR: Cannot install -r /app/cv/requirements.txt (line 2), -r /app/cv/requirements.txt (line 4) and numpy==1.18.1 because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.



The conflict is caused by:

    The user requested numpy==1.18.1

    pandas 1.1.5 depends on numpy>=1.15.4

    opencv-python-headless 4.5.4.60 depends on numpy>=1.19.3

Remove (or update) the version numbers of pandas and numpy packages, unless you need specifically these older versions.

Now I have this error:

cv2.error: OpenCV(4.5.4) /tmp/pip-req-build-9vck9bv0/opencv/modules/highgui/src/window.cpp:1268: error: (-2:Unspecified error) The function is not implemented.

Do you have a any idea that how solve it?

You cannot use e.g. cv2.VideoCapture, cv2.imshow, cv2.waitKey, if streamlit runs on a hosted service!

This does not work because there is a fundamental misunderstanding about how Streamlit works.
Streamlit consists of a frontend and backend part. Any interaction with streamlit must be done via the browser or browser APIs. Anything trying to bypass this, may work on your local computer, but will fail as soon as streamlit is hosted, i.e. streamlit no longer runs on the same computer as the browser.

What happens when you try to open cv2 (or other) gui widgets or try to access video hardware? They will be opened on the computer on which the python application is running. But there is neither an UI nor a graphics driver nor a video device on streamlit cloud and even if there was, it would be the wrong computer.

You have to rethink your whole approach, it will not work this way.
