I used cv2.findContours
to find objects and after processing I want to save certain contour(s). I must first create empty image and then use cv2.drawContours
command. However docstring for this command is following:
drawContours(image, contours, contourIdx, color[, thickness[,lineType[, hierarchy[, maxLevel[, offset]]]]]) -> None
and contourIdx
is required, while I have no idea what is it supposed to be.
Does anyone know how to get this parameter, or even demonstrate other way of dumping contours to file?
Update :
for dumping single contour contourIdx
parameter should be set to -1
This should work.
drawing = np.zeros(img.shape)
for i in xrange(len(contours)):
if (cv2.contourArea(contours[i]) > 15000): # just a condition
cv2.drawContours(drawing, contours, i, (255, 255, 255), 1, 8, hierarchy)
