Integrate Dear ImGui Bundle in your own project in 5 minutes¶

The easiest way to use Dear ImGui Bundle in an external project is to use the template available at https://github.com/pthom/imgui_bundle_template.

This template includes everything you need to set up your own project.

Build from source¶

If you choose to clone this repo, follow these instructions:

git clone https://github.com/pthom/imgui_bundle.git
cd imgui_bundle
git submodule update --init --recursive # (1)
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DIMMVISION_FETCH_OPENCV=ON # (2)
make -j

(1) Since there are lots of submodules, this might take a few minutes

(2) The flag -DIMMVISION_FETCH_OPENCV=ON is optional. If set, a minimal version of OpenCV will be downloaded a compiled at this stage (this might require a few minutes)

The immvision module will only be built if OpenCV can be found. Otherwise, it will be ignored, and no error will be emitted.

If you have an existing OpenCV install, set its path via:

cmake .. -DOpenCV_DIR=/.../path/to/OpenCVConfig.cmake

Run the C++ demo¶

If you built ImGuiBundle from source, Simply run build/bin/demo_imgui_bundle.

The source for the demos can be found inside bindings/imgui_bundle/demos_cpp.
