Exporter that writes VOC detection datasets to disk.

See :ref:`this page <VOCDetectionDataset-export>` for format details.

Parameters
export_dirthe directory to write the export. This has no effect if data_path and labels_path are absolute paths
data_path

an optional parameter that enables explicit control over the location of the exported media. Can be any of the following:

  • a folder name like "data" or "data/" specifying a subfolder of export_dir in which to export the media
  • an absolute directory path in which to export the media. In this case, the export_dir has no effect on the location of the data
  • a JSON filename like "data.json" specifying the filename of the manifest file in export_dir generated when export_media is "manifest"
  • an absolute filepath specifying the location to write the JSON manifest file when export_media is "manifest". In this case, export_dir has no effect on the location of the data

If None, the default value of this parameter will be chosen based on the value of the export_media parameter

labels_path

an optional parameter that enables explicit control over the location of the exported labels. Can be any of the following:

  • a folder name like "labels" or "labels/" specifying the location in export_dir in which to export the labels
  • an absolute folder path to which to export the labels. In this case, the export_dir has no effect on the location of the labels

If None, the labels will be exported into export_dir using the default folder name

export_media

controls how to export the raw media. The supported values are:

  • True: copy all media files into the output directory
  • False: don't export media
  • "move": move all media files into the output directory
  • "symlink": create symlinks to the media files in the output directory
  • "manifest": create a data.json in the output directory that maps UUIDs used in the labels files to the filepaths of the source media, rather than exporting the actual media

If None, the default value of this parameter will be chosen based on the value of the data_path parameter

rel_diran optional relative directory to strip from each input filepath to generate a unique identifier for each image. When exporting media, this identifier is joined with data_path and labels_path to generate output paths for each exported image and labels file. This argument allows for populating nested subdirectories that match the shape of the input paths. The path is converted to an absolute path (if necessary) via fiftyone.core.storage.normalize_path
include_pathswhether to include the absolute paths to the images in the <path> elements of the exported XML
image_formatthe image format to use when writing in-memory images to disk. By default, fiftyone.config.default_image_ext is used
extra_attrs

whether to include extra object attributes in the exported labels. Supported values are:

  • True: export all extra attributes found
  • False: do not export extra attributes
  • a name or list of names of specific attributes to export

Inherited from DatasetExporter (via LabeledImageDatasetExporter):

Method __enter__ Undocumented
Method __exit__ Undocumented
Method log_collection Logs any relevant information about the fiftyone.core.collections.SampleCollection whose samples will be exported.

Inherited from ExportPathsMixin (via LabeledImageDatasetExporter, DatasetExporter):

Static Method _parse_data_path Helper function that computes default values for the data_path and export_media parameters supported by many exporters.
Static Method _parse_labels_path Helper function that computes default values for the labels_path parameter supported by many exporters.
def __init__(self, export_dir=None, data_path=None, labels_path=None, export_media=None, rel_dir=None, include_paths=True, image_format=None, extra_attrs=True): (source)
def close(self, *args): (source)

Performs any necessary actions after the last sample has been exported.

This method is called when the exporter's context manager interface is exited, DatasetExporter.__exit__.

Parameters
*argsthe arguments to DatasetExporter.__exit__
def export_sample(self, image_or_path, detections, metadata=None): (source)

Exports the given sample to the dataset.

Parameters
image_or_pathan image or the path to the image on disk
detectionsUndocumented
metadata:Nonea fiftyone.core.metadata.ImageMetadata instance for the sample. Only required when requires_image_metadata is True
labelan instance of label_cls, or a dictionary mapping field names to fiftyone.core.labels.Label instances, or None if the sample is unlabeled
def setup(self): (source)

Performs any necessary setup before exporting the first sample in the dataset.

This method is called when the exporter's context manager interface is entered, DatasetExporter.__enter__.

The fiftyone.core.labels.Label class(es) exported by this exporter.

This can be any of the following:

  • a fiftyone.core.labels.Label class. In this case, the exporter directly exports labels of this type
  • a list or tuple of fiftyone.core.labels.Label classes. In this case, the exporter can export a single label field of any of these types
  • a dict mapping keys to fiftyone.core.labels.Label classes. In this case, the exporter can handle label dictionaries with value-types specified by this dictionary. Not all keys need be present in the exported label dicts
  • None. In this case, the exporter makes no guarantees about the labels that it can export
@property
