### Documentation

Documentation for jetson-utils can be found here:

* [API Reference](https://github.com/dusty-nv/jetson-inference#api-reference)
* [Camera Streaming and Multimedia](https://github.com/dusty-nv/jetson-inference/blob/master/docs/aux-streaming.md)

### Building from Source (C++/CUDA)

This will build and install the C++/CUDA library (`libjetson-utils.so`) along with the Python extension module:

``` bash
git clone https://github.com/dusty-nv/jetson-utils
cd jetson-utils
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
```

If you're missing dependencies, run the [`jetson-inference/CMakePreBuild.sh`](https://github.com/dusty-nv/jetson-inference/blob/master/CMakePreBuild.sh) script.

### Install with Pip (Python only)

This will install the Python-native modules from [`python/jetson_utils`](/python/jetson_utils) which do not depend on the C++ extension bindings and get installed on top:

```
pip3 install -e /path/to/your/jetson-utils
```

Or directly from GitHub:

```
pip3 install git+https://github.com/dusty-nv/jetson-utils
```
