Using .cs files to serve an problem.

[Mehmet Yücel Sarıtaş]

Hi all. I need to handle a problem. For example,  I have one frame in the x folder. Code will take that frame from folder and model will process frame and will output it as csv. The key point is to do these operations with codes(C#). Not from the bonsai app. The main problem I don't really understand the codes published on Github(Because of my c# skills ). I appreciate it if anybody helps me. Thanks!

Hi Mehmet,

Do you really need to have your entire project in C#, or is it enough to add custom scripts into Bonsai? I would suggest experimenting with C# first inside Bonsai itself, so you can easily setup your project by using the C# scripting nodes: CSharpSource for example, you can use to replace for example FileCapture with your random source of frames, and have something like the following:

Then inside the script you can specify a totally different way of feeding frames to DLC and it should still work fine.

If you really need to, it is also possible to use Bonsai.DeepLabCut directly from a C# project by adding it as a dependency. Make sure you use .NET 4.7.2 and add something like this in your .csproj file:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>net472</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Bonsai.DeepLabCut" Version="0.2.0" />
  </ItemGroup>

</Project>

This should download the Bonsai.DeepLabCut package straight into your project and you can then call the functions by setting up a reactive pipeline directly in C#. This would be exactly the same as scripting in C# inside Bonsai, which is why I also suggested starting there.

Make sure to also install the system dependencies, exactly as you do for getting DLC to work with Bonsai: https://github.com/bonsai-rx/deeplabcut#how-to-install

Hope this helps.
