downloader.py Confusion

[calnick1]

Hi @computervisioneng ,

Thank you for your tutorial, While I was running step 5 (python downloader.py $IMAGE_LIST_FILE --download_folder=$DOWNLOAD_FOLDER), I got the below error:

usage: downloader.py [-h] [--num_processes NUM_PROCESSES] [--download_folder DOWNLOAD_FOLDER] image_list
downloader.py: error: the following arguments are required: image_list

Could you please help me with this, Thanks

You have a file named 'image_list_file' in prepare_data directory, after executing previous steps.

Hello, have you replaced $IMAGE_LIST_FILE by the location of your image list file and $DOWNLOAD_FOLDER by the location of your desired download folder?

you are doing it wrong. u need to download the "Train", "Validation", and "Test" files and place them in "Prepare_Data" folder and execute the "create_image_list_file.py" file. it'll generate a new file named "image_list_file".
this "image_list_file" is used in the "python downloader.py $IMAGE_LIST_FILE --download_folder=$DOWNLOAD_FOLDER" command
you need to replace $IMAGE_LIST_FILE with the path of "image_list_file"

i appreciate the content you put together but how this step was put together makes me feel like you aren't too considerate to students who know little and can struggle from following these steps to just to get a hold of material needed to follow the course.

i put the img files to .zip file if someone needs simpler way to get them
