## Requirements
### Hardware Requirements
- CPU: 4 cores or more
- Memory: 8GB or more
- Disk: 10GB available space
- GPU: Not required (recommended for AI image generation)
### Software Requirements
- Windows 10 or above

- Chrome browser (required for automated publishing)
## Quick Start
#### Prerequisites
- Avoid using **paths with Chinese characters** to prevent unforeseen issues
- Make sure your **network** is stable; VPN should be in "global traffic" mode
#### 1. Clone the Code
```shell
git clone https://github.com/Anning01/AIMedia.git
cd AIMedia
```
#### 2. Create Virtual Environment
**Using Conda (Recommended)**
```shell
conda create -n AIMedia python=3.12.4
conda activate AIMedia
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
**Using venv**
```shell
python -m venv venv
# Windows
.\venv\Scripts\activate
# Linux/Mac
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
#### 3. Configure Project
- Copy `config.py` file and name it `local_config.py`
- Configure `zhipu_aip_key` as specified in `config.py`
- Enable and configure Stable Diffusion API if you need AI image generation
#### 4. Download Chrome Browser (Required for Auto-publishing)
Download link:
- Baidu Drive: https://pan.baidu.com/s/1x6J3K4KdWrI9vOG8yvSSBw Code: 7jyw
After downloading, extract and place the entire directory in `.\AIMedia\pyside`, so the final path should be: `.\AIMedia\pyside\chrome`
#### 5. Start the Project
Please refer to the documentation for backend and frontend respectively:
- **Django Backend**: See [back/README.md](back/README.md)
- **PySide6 Frontend**: See [pyside/README.md](pyside/README.md)
