Some confusion about installation

[cama36]

https://github.com/CloudCompare/CloudComPy/blob/master/doc/UseLinuxCondaBinary.md Actually, after I followed the instructions above, I successfully used CloudCompy, and I am very interested in it. But unfortunately, for some reason, I can't start the conda environment when using it, that is, I want to install it directly in the system environment, without using . <path install>/bin/condaCloud.sh activate CloudComPy310, directly to run CloudCompare, is it possible? I am a novice in this area, can you help me achieve this process?

Hello, If you don't want to use the conda environment, the only way will be to rebuild CloudComPy/CloudCompare on your system with the plugins, which is a complex process... if you agree to install the conda environment but just want to run a single command that does everything, that should be possible, depending on what you want to do, can you be more specific about your use case?

Hello, my task is to simply describe that I have a docker service of triton server. After starting docker, some pcd files will be sent to me. I want to use cloudcompy to do some operations and return the results, but during this process I may not be allowed to start any virtual environment, so I may only be able to operate in the base environment. Is this feasible? Best wishes.

Hello, I don't know enough about triton and its docker service to give you a precise answer. CloudComPy is built on top of CloudCompare, and requires several libraries to work (at least Qt, PCL in your case and probably many more depending on what you need with CloudComPy/CloudCompare). With CloudComPy binaries available, these libraries are provided by the conda environment. It's probably possible to build a specific version of CloudComPy incorporating all the libraries needed to run directly in the docker service, but this isn't an easy task if you're not used to it...
