How to Install Exadel CompreFace on Debian Latest

Exadel CompreFace is an AI-powered face recognition platform that can recognize faces with high accuracy in real-time. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Exadel CompreFace on Debian latest.

Prerequisites

Before starting the installation, you need to make sure that you have the following prerequisites:

  • A Debian latest version installed on your machine.
  • A user account with administrative privileges.
  • A stable and reliable internet connection.

Step 1: Installing Docker & Docker Compose

Exadel CompreFace is distributed as a Docker container. Therefore, we need to install Docker and Docker Compose on our Debian machine. Use the following commands to install Docker and Docker Compose:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y docker.io
sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker
sudo apt-get install -y docker-compose

Step 2: Cloning the Exadel CompreFace Repository

Next, we need to clone the Exadel CompreFace repository. Use the following command to clone the repository:

sudo apt-get install -y git
git clone https://github.com/exadel-inc/CompreFace.git compreface

Step 3: Configuring the Exadel CompreFace

Before starting the Exadel CompreFace container, we need to configure some settings in the "docker-compose.yml" file. Navigate to the "compreface" directory and open the "docker-compose.yml" file using your preferred text editor:

cd compreface
nano docker-compose.yml

Replace the default values with your own values in the following variables:

  • POSTGRES_PASSWORD: A secure password for the PostgreSQL database.
  • ADMIN_EMAIL: Your email address for the admin user.
  • ADMIN_PASSWORD: A secure password for the admin user.
  • SERVER_NAME: The domain name or IP address of your server.

After making the changes, save and close the file.

Step 4: Starting the Exadel CompreFace Container

Use the following command to start the Exadel CompreFace container:

sudo docker-compose up -d

The "-d" flag will run the container in detached mode, meaning that it will run in the background.

Wait for a few minutes until the container starts up and initializes. You can check the status of the container using the following command:

sudo docker ps

You should see the Exadel CompreFace container running, along with other containers used by the CompreFace.

Step 5: Accessing the Exadel CompreFace Web UI

Once the container is up and running, you can access the Exadel CompreFace web UI using your web browser. Open your web browser and enter the following URL:

http://<SERVER_NAME>:8000

Replace the SERVER_NAME variable with the domain name or IP address of your server.

You should see the Exadel CompreFace login page. Enter the admin email address and password that you have configured in the "docker-compose.yml" file.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured the Exadel CompreFace on your Debian latest machine. You can now explore and use the face recognition features of the platform.
