Convert images and videos into a cartoon!
The webapp is deployed here - https://cartoonize-lkqov62dia-de.a.run.app
These are important steps if you want to leverage Google buckets, signed URLs and Algorithmia's platform.
To use any functionalities pertaining to Google Cloud, you'll need a global authentication file (JSON). You can obtain this JSON by following the steps given here - Getting started with authentication
After you get the JSON file, rename it to token.json
(so that it's compatible with the codebase).
Set the environment variable in your terminal -
export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/path/to/token.json"
Notes:
- You can set it permanently by adding this line to
~/.bashrc
. Dockerfile
already includes the setting of this particular environment variable. :)
We used the Serveless AI Layer product of Algorithmia for inference on videos. To learn more on how to deploy your model in Algorithmia, check here - https://algorithmia.com/developers
