Install

IDLive Face Server is provided as a Docker image via Amazon ECR. The current version of the server and the docker pull command for it are in your personal account on the customer portal.

Install Docker

Since the IDLive Face Server is distributed in a form of Docker image, you need to make sure that you have Docker Engine installed on your machine. Follow the Docker's instruction to install Docker Engine on Ubuntu, CentOS or other supported platform. For Windows you can use Docker Desktop.

Note that by default you need to run docker with sudo. You can disable it if you want.

Download image

Follow these steps to install an image via the custom portal:

  1. Navigate to your personal account on the custom portal and select the desired image.
  2. In the Docker containers section, click the "Generate command" button.
  3. Wait for the command to be generated. Once ready, click the "Copy" button to copy the pull command.
  4. Use the copied command in Terminal or another tool.

Once the Docker image is pulled, you may want to change its name since the original name is quite long. Use docker tag to create a second short image name:

docker tag \
    367672406076.dkr.ecr.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/facesdk/idface-server-eval:1.47.0 \
    idface-server-eval:1.47.0

Now you can use idface-server-eval:1.47.0 with the Docker commands. The old name is still available if you need it.
