Custom docker Tappas installation

General

Hello everyone,

I’m currently working on a custom Docker container with Tappas installed. I managed to create one, but apparently it’s installing all Tappas Hailo operators except for hailonet. Do you know what could be the issue here?

Files I’m using in my setup:
hailort_4.20.0_amd64.deb (source: hailo.ai developer zone)
gst-plugin-pylon (source: GitHub - basler/gst-plugin-pylon: The official GStreamer plug-in for Basler cameras)
tappas_3.31.0_linux_installer (source: hailo.ai developer zone)
Pylon 7.5 install files (required for gst-plugin-pylon)

Is there something I’m missing in my setup? On my host machine I have installed HailoRT 4.20, HailoRT-PCIE-driver (4.20) and PyHailoRT

The issue is likely that the hailonet element is part of HailoRT and not Tappas.

GitHub - HailoRT

Also here you can see, there is just a placeholder for hailonet documentation in Tappas.

GitHub - Tappas - Elements - hailonet

For our Docker support we had HailoRT and Tappas in the same container and only the PCIe driver outside.

Oh yeah you are right. I also couldn’t install package during the container creation process so at the end of the file I added:

CMD bash -c "dpkg --install /tmp/setup/hailort_4.20.0_amd64.deb && /bin/bash"

And it worked :slight_smile: Thank you for the hint :slight_smile:
