sist2 is an open-source image stitching tool developed by Simon Widjaja. It is a command-line tool that can stitch multiple images together to create panoramic images. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing sist2 on Manjaro.
Before installing any new software, it is recommended to update the system packages to their latest version. You can do this by running the following command in the terminal:
sudo pacman -Syu
Git is a version control system that allows you to manage and track changes to software. We will use Git to clone and download the sist2 repository from GitHub. Run the following command in the terminal to install Git:
sudo pacman -S git
In this step, we will clone the sist2 repository from GitHub. Open the terminal and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/simon987/sist2.git
This will clone the sist2 repository to your local system.
sist2 requires the following dependencies to be installed on the system:
You can install these dependencies by running the following command in the terminal:
sudo pacman -S cmake opencv boost
Navigate to the sist2 directory using the terminal:
cd sist2
Create a build directory:
mkdir build
cd build
Configure the sist2 build using CMake:
cmake ..
Build and install sist2:
make && sudo make install
This will build and install sist2 on your Manjaro system.
You can verify the installation by running the following command in the terminal:
sist2 -h
This should output the available options for sist2.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed sist2 on Manjaro Linux. You can now start using sist2 to stitch images and create panoramic photos.
