Looking over the library quickly, I really like it, that being said, Pillow is a much smaller and more self contained library than OpenCV, some projects try and avoid openCV if not necessary and this would extend to this project as well.
- shoumikchow 6y agoThanks for the constructive comment! I'll try and see if it is at all possible to implement it in Pillow and maybe re-implement it in a major release, unless it is terribly convoluted.
- mrkwse 6y agoSorry for my slow response, 3vidence has covered my main thoughts, but I've added a bit to his comment. In terms of convolution of implementing it, there may be a little more effort in terms of figuring some offsets (e.g., path widths may extend bounds), but it shouldn't be anything excessive I don't think.
- shoumikchow 6y agoThanks for the comment! I'll look into it and aim for the next major point release.
- mrkwse 6y agoYeah this is the main thing, there are different approaches to computer vision problems than OpenCV, so using a smaller more specific library will make the package more portable and better suited to a wider range of projects. Having OpenCV as a dependency means that if a project isn't already using OpenCV, this fairly minor (in terms of scale of functionality) utility library has a lot of baggage.
