[PATCH 15 6/7] libcamera: virtual: Read config and register cameras based on the config

Harvey Yang chenghaoyang at chromium.org
Fri Oct 4 11:59:19 CEST 2024


This patch introduces the configuration file for Virtual Pipeline
Handler. The config file is written in yaml, and the format is
documented in `README.md`.

The config file will define the camera with IDs, supported formats and
image sources, etc. In the default config file, only Test Patterns are
used. Developers can use real images loading if desired.

+# Virtual Pipeline Handler
+
+Virtual pipeline handler emulates fake external camera(s) on ChromeOS for testing.
+
+## Parse config file and register cameras
+
+- The config file is located at `src/libcamera/pipeline/virtual/data/virtual.yaml`
+
+### Config File Format
+The config file contains the information about cameras' properties to register.
+The config file should be a yaml file with dictionary of the cameraIds
+associated with their properties as top level. The default value will be applied
+when any property is empty.
+
+Each camera block is a dictionary, containing the following keys:
+- `supported_formats` (list of `VirtualCameraData::Resolution`, optional) :
+  List of supported resolution and frame rates of the emulated camera
+    - `width` (`unsigned int`, default=1920): Width of the window resolution.
+      This needs to be even.
+    - `height` (`unsigned int`, default=1080): Height of the window resolution.
+    - `frame_rates` (list of `int`, default=`[30,60]` ): Range of the frame
+      rate (per second). If the list contains one value, it's the lower bound
+      and the upper bound. If the list contains two values, the first is the
+      lower bound and the second is the upper bound. No other number of values
+      is allowed.
+- `test_pattern` (`string`): Which test pattern to use as frames. The options
+  are "bars", "lines". Cannot be set with `frames`.
+- `frames` (dictionary):
+  - `path` (`string`): Path to an image, or path to a directory of a series of
+    images. Cannot be set with `test_pattern`.
+    - The test patterns are "bars" which means color bars, and "lines" which
+      means diagonal lines.
+    - The path to an image has ".jpg" extension.
+    - The path to a directory ends with "/". The name of the images in the
+      directory are "{n}.jpg" with {n} is the sequence of images starting with 0.
+- `location` (`string`, default="front"): The location of the camera. Support
+  "front" and "back". This is displayed in qcam camera selection window but
+  this does not change the output.
+- `model` (`string`, default="Unknown"): The model name of the camera.
+  This is displayed in qcam camera selection window but this does not change the output.
+
+Check `data/virtual.yaml` as the sample config file.
+
+### Implementation
+
+`Parser` class provides methods to parse the config file to register cameras
+in Virtual Pipeline Handler. `parseConfigFile()` is exposed to use in
+Virtual Pipeline Handler.
+
+This is the procedure of the Parser class:
+1. `parseConfigFile()` parses the config file to `YamlObject` using `YamlParser::parse()`.
+    - Parse the top level of config file which are the camera ids and look into
+      each camera properties.
+2. For each camera, `parseCameraConfigData()` returns a camera with the configuration.
+    - The methods in the next step fill the data with the pointer to the Camera object.
+    - If the config file contains invalid configuration, this method returns
+      nullptr. The camera will be skipped.
+3. Parse each property and register the data.
+    - `parseSupportedFormats()`: Parses `supported_formats` in the config, which
+      contains resolutions and frame rates.
+    - `parseFrameGenerator()`: Parses `test_pattern` or `frames` in the config.
+    - `parseLocation()`: Parses `location` in the config.
+    - `parseModel()`: Parses `model` in the config.
+4. Back to `parseConfigFile()` and append the camera configuration.
+5. Returns a list of camera configurations.
