Images

Introduction

In this tutorial we will focus on working with images using Supervisely SDK.

You will learn how to:

📗 Everything you need to reproduce this tutorial is on GitHub: source code and demo data.

How to debug this tutorial

Step 1. Prepare ~/supervisely.env file with credentials. Learn more here.

Step 2. Clone repository with source code and demo data and create Virtual Environment.

git clone https://github.com/supervisely-ecosystem/tutorial-image.git

cd tutorial-image

./create_venv.sh

Step 3. Open repository directory in Visual Studio Code.

code -r .

Step 4. Change workspace ID in local.env file by copying the ID from the context menu of the workspace.

WORKSPACE_ID=654 # ⬅️ change value

Step 5. Start debugging src/main.py.

Import libraries

import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
import supervisely as sly

Init API client

First, we load environment variables with credentials and init API for communicating with Supervisely Instance.

if sly.is_development():
    load_dotenv("local.env")
    load_dotenv(os.path.expanduser("~/supervisely.env"))
api = sly.Api()

Get variables from environment

In this tutorial, you will need an workspace ID that you can get from environment variables. Learn more here

workspace_id = sly.env.workspace_id()

Create new project and dataset

Create new project.

Source code:

project = api.project.create(workspace_id, "Fruits", change_name_if_conflict=True)

print(f"Project ID: {project.id}")

Output:

# Project ID: 15599

Create new dataset.

Source code:

dataset = api.dataset.create(project.id, "Fruits ds1")

print(f"Dataset ID: {dataset.id}")

Output:

# Dataset ID: 53465

Upload images from local directory to Supervisely

Upload single image.

Source code:

original_dir = "src/images/original"
path = os.path.join(original_dir, "lemons.jpg")
meta = {"my-field-1": "my-value-1", "my-field-2": "my-value-2"}

image = api.image.upload_path(
    dataset.id,
    name="Lemons",
    path=path,
    meta=meta # optional
)

print(f'Image "{image.name}" uploaded to Supervisely with ID:{image.id}')

Output:

# Image "Lemons.jpeg" uploaded to Supervisely platform with ID:17539453

Upload list of images.

✅ Supervisely API allows uploading multiple images in a single request. The code sample below sends fewer requests and it leads to a significant speed-up of our original code.

Source code:

names = [
    "grapes-1.jpg",
    "grapes-2.jpg",
    "oranges-2.jpg",
    "oranges-1.jpg",
]
paths = [os.path.join(original_dir, name) for name in names]

upload_info = api.image.upload_paths(dataset.id, names, paths)

print(f"{len(upload_info)} images successfully uploaded to Supervisely platform")

Output:

# 4 images successfully uploaded to Supervisely platform

Upload images as NumPy matrix

Single image

Source code:

img_np = sly.image.read(path)

np_image_info = api.image.upload_np(dataset.id, name="Lemons-np.jpeg", img=img_np)

print(f"Image successfully uploaded as NumPy matrix to Supervisely (ID: {np_image_info.id})")

Output:

# Image successfully uploaded as NumPy matrix to Supervisely (ID: 17539458)

Upload list of images

Source code:

names_np = [f"np-{name}" for name in names]
images_np = [sly.image.read(img_path) for img_path in paths]

np_images_info = api.image.upload_nps(dataset.id, names_np, images_np)

print(f"{len(images_np)} images successfully uploaded to platform as NumPy matrix")

Output:

# 4 images successfully uploaded to platform as NumPy matrix

Get information about images

Single image

Get information about image from Supervisely by id.

Source code:

image_info = api.image.get_info_by_id(image.id)

print(image_info)

Output:

# ImageInfo(
#     id=17539453,
#     name='Lemons.jpeg',
#     link=None,
#     hash='0jirgXvKGTJ8Yi0I9nCdf9MllQ9jP3Les1fD7/dt+Zk=',
#     mime='image/jpeg',
#     ext='jpeg',
#     size=66066,
#     width=640,
#     height=427,
#     labels_count=0,
#     dataset_id=54008,
#     created_at='2022-12-23T15:57:35.707Z',
#     updated_at='2022-12-23T15:57:35.707Z',
#     meta={},
#     path_original='nAXBxaxQJRARr0Ljkj6FfREj1Fq89.jpg',
#     full_storage_url='https://dev.supervisely.com/h5unublic/images/original/3/e/OK/d8Y7NnEj1Fq89.jpg',
#     tags=[]
# )

You can also get information about image from Supervisely by name.

Source code:

image_name = get_file_name(image.name)

image_info_by_name = api.image.get_info_by_name(dataset.id, image_name)

print(f"image name - {image_info_by_name.name}")

Output:

# image name - Lemons.jpeg

Get all images from dataset.

Get information about image from Supervisely by id.

Source code:

image_info_list = api.image.get_list(dataset.id)

print(f"{len(image_info_list)} images information received.")

Output:

# 10 images information received.

Download images to local directory

Single image

Download image from Supervisely to local directory by id.

Source code:

save_path = os.path.join(result_dir, image_info.name)

api.image.download_path(image_info.id, save_path)

print(f"Image has been successfully downloaded to '{save_path}'")

Output:

# Image has been successfully downloaded to 'src/images/result/Lemons.jpeg'

Download list of images to local directory

save_paths = [os.path.join(result_dir, img_name) for img_name in image_names]

api.image.download_paths(dataset.id, image_ids, save_paths)

print(f"{len(image_info_list)} images has been successfully downloaded.")

Output:

# 10 images has been successfully downloaded.
