Headless mode import

[bbbares]

I am looking to run my metashape script in a docker container and when I run it I receive this error:

Code: [Select]

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/runpy.py", line 193, in _run_module_as_main
    "__main__", mod_spec)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/runpy.py", line 85, in _run_code
    exec(code, run_globals)

    import Metashape as Ms

    from .Metashape import *
ImportError: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
From preliminary research it seems that this it related to the GUI. For my purposes the GUI is not necessary is there a way I can run the module in headless mode forgoing needs for the GUI? If not please let me know. Thanks.

Hello bbbares,

Does it help, if you run the script using -platform offscreen command line parameter?

Code: [Select]

./metashape.sh -platform offscreen -r script.py
Or whether you are using Metashape stand alone module? If so, then can you reproduce the problem just by using the simple script with "import Metashape" line alone?

I am using the standalone module. The error arises when my script attempts to "import Metashape".

Sorry for checking in on an old thread, but did you find a solution?
