Adds the python package `face_recognition` and its dependency
`face_recognition_models`.
This package is a wrapper for `dlib` which is able to detect faces in a
given image. I checked the package with the following expression:
```
with import ./. { };
stdenv.mkDerivation {
name = "facetest";
src = null;
buildInputs = with pythonPackages; [ face_recognition ];
}
```
The package works perfectly fine in a `nix-shell`:
```
$ nix-shell
[nix-shell:~]$ python
Python 2.7.14 (default, Sep 16 2017, 17:49:51)
[GCC 7.3.0] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import face_recognition
>>> img = face_recognition.load_image_file("/home/ma27/me.jpg")
>>> print(face_recognition.face_locations(img))
```
Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
