Build projectaria_tools in isolation with Pixi

You can build projectaria_tools in isolation using pixi on and for your local platform (Linux, macOS Intel/Silicon) using the exact same command lines. Pixi is a convenient package and environment manager that simplifies the logic to compile and run projects by defining dependencies and tasks in a single pixi.toml file for all platforms.

note

Aria-Gen2 support is not yet available for Windows users.

Step 1: Install Pixi​

# Install Pixi
curl -fsSL https://pixi.sh/install.sh | bash

Step 2: Compile and test the code​

# When this command line first run, it will collect required dependencies, and then trigger the build and unit test
pixi run run_c

Step 3: Access the compiled artifacts in C++​

# Activate the environment
pixi shell

# You can now run and use things from the projects.

# For example, with Python, you can import the projectaria_tools package and use it.
python
import projectaria_tools
dir(projectaria_tools)
# Will print
