Can I call the GUI in Headless Mode to produce and save the Mask and Overlay automatically?

@hkchengrex
I would like to pass the location of a point or a polygon ("scribble") without opening the GUI ("headless mode") and automatically save the output Mask and the Overlay. How can I do that ?

There isn't a direct way to do it with the current codebase. You need to first convert those features into a mask (use fbrs for points and s2m for scribbles) and propagation from there.

@hkchengrex where in the codebase is this located at ? which sections do I need to explore to follow your steps ?
the point and scribbles from the user click(s) comes in as a mask too ?

Every type of interaction will be converted into a mask. You can start from interactive_gui.py, inference_core.py (for propagation), interact/s2m_controller.py (for scribbles to mask), and interact/fbrs_controller.py (for clicks to mask)
