# Library Description

The core of this Python library is the C++ one. It consists of `.cpp` and `.h` files. It is built using the `premake` build system. It is recommended to use the `make_win.bat` script, which provides an example of the build process.

To facilitate usage, a Python wrapper is implemented, enabling the creation and use of the `ImageTopoDec` library.

# Connecting the Python Library

Compatible systems required for library integration:

- **Operating Systems:** Windows 10, Linux (compatible with `manylinux_2_28`), macOS (ARM architecture).
- **Python:** Version 3.13 x86_64.
- **C++ Support:** Required on Windows only ([link](https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x86.exe) for installing the redistributable package).
- **Package Manager:** `pip`.

The library is installed using `pip`:

For Linux:

```bash
python3 -m pip install ImageTopoDec
```

For Windows:

```bash
py -m pip install ImageTopoDec
```

For macOS, it is recommended to use a virtual environment:

```bash
python3 -m venv .venv
source ./.venv/bin/activate
pip install ImageTopoDec
```

**Example Usage**

```python
import ImageTopoDec as bc
import ImageTopoDec.barcode as bcc
import cv2
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Load image
img = cv2.imread('/Users/sam/Edu/bar/12/1.png', cv2.IMREAD_GRAYSCALE)
plt.imshow(img, cmap='gray')
```

Figure 1. Source image

```python
# Create barcode and visualize the largest component
cont = bc.barstruct()
cont.proctype = bc.ProcType.f255t0
barc =  bcc.create_barcode(img, cont)

cmp = barc.get_largest_component()
img = bcc.combine_components_into_matrix(cmp, img.shape, img.dtype)

plt.imshow(img, cmap='gray')

cmp = barc.get_largest_component()
img = bcc.combine_components_into_matrix(cmp, img.shape, img.dtype)
plt.imshow(img, cmap='gray')
```

# Python Library

The Python library is a wrapper for the C++ library. All classes listed in Table 1 are translated to Python with the same method and field names. If a method returns a vector or array, the Python wrapper returns a `set`.

The library also includes its own functions and a class, as shown in Tables 4 and 5.

To use the library, import it:

```python
import ImageTopoDec as bcc
```

Barcodes are created using the `create_barcode` method:

```python
barc = bcc.create_barcode(img, cont)
```

**Visualization Module**

The library includes a `barplot` module for visualizing barcodes using Matplotlib. To use it:

```python
import ImageTopoDec.barplot as bcp
```

The module provides one function:

```python
plot_barcode_lines(lines: set[bc.Barline] | bc.Baritem | bc.Barline, name, show=False, save=False)
```

This function can display or save the plot.
