Set In runway with the ComputerMouseGAN

⚠️ Hosting a model on RunwayML costs money. Please review RunwayML's current pricing and be aware of the costs.

Navigate to https://app.runwayml.com/models/choochoo/ComputerMouseGAN link to view the model in RunwayML. You will need to sign into RunwayML or create an account if you don't already have one.

Click on the Host Model Button. The defaults are fine, hit Host Model again. Then go into the Settings under the </> or view code snippets button. There you will find the URL and API Key to use in the .env files this project.

Start The Node Server

You'll need nodejs and npm installed if you don't already have them installed. Go to nodejs.org to installing them.

Copy the .env-sample and rename the resulting file .env. Then edit that file to include the URL and API key you got from RunwayML.

Run npm install in the root directory of this repository.

Run npm start to start the server!

Running Processing Sketches

Install the included http requests library. To do this unzip the include httprequests_processing.zip file. Then move the resulting directory called httprequests_processing to the library install location for Processing. Typically ~/sketchbook/libraries/ on Unix based systems and Documents/sketchbook/libraries on Windows.

You then can open the Processing sketches in the ProcessingIDE and run them.
