Simplify installation
As we intend to crowdsource the computational resources needed for bulk upload, I feel the installation process needs to be simplified.
@selvan suggests tools like https://www.docker.com/ can be used to create one step installation.
The setup takes time when we want people to use their own gmail drive account for OCR.
To simplify this, will create a gmail account, setup for api, and share the credentials.json.
people can use it directly to gdauth and proceed with do_ocr.py.
Is it okey?
Docker is good, but not for beginners.
Sounds better. Any way to club all sudo install commands like how gdcmdtools is installed in one command?
Yes.
Will create a single install script that takes care of all.
At 1.48, added a setup.sh
Check INSTALL file for instructions.
Sudo apt-get update Sudo apt-get install pip
should also be added. New users face a problem if they don't do this. Is python available by default? Else, it should also be added.
