I'm having trouble understanding what you mean by "installed the code but couldn't find the setup file".

This is a Python library that provides wrapped APIs, not an out-of-the-box program for end users.

installed as cloned the code , and when you mean Python library do you mean it's just a bunch of code and not a finished project ? , because if it's a finished project or at least a project that works I want to know how to use it / Search by an image

Let me be clear:

This is a production-ready Python library, not an unfinished project or executable program. There's a fundamental difference:

  • An executable program is something you click and run
  • A library is code that developers integrate into their own projects

To use this library:

  1. Install Python
  2. Install via pip: pip install PicImageSearch
  3. Write Python code that imports and uses the library

The documentation and example code covers everything you need to know about usage.

If you're unfamiliar with how Python libraries work, I suggest learning Python basics first before attempting to use this library.
