I would use only the Python bridge but not the Blender features (Cube,
etc). Will be the Python bridge and parser contained in its own package?
I have started from MinGW and evaluated
Ephestos sendMessage: 'print("hello world")'.
Ephestos sendMessage: 'x = 3'.
Ephestos getValue: 'x'.
$ python pyAtlas.py
creating thread
calling create_socket_connection
hello world
('pherror : ', ['', 'no error\n'])
I have sent err : --->no error
<---- and removed it from the list of errors
('pherror : ', ['', 'no error\n'])
I have sent err : --->no error
<---- and removed it from the list of errors
('eval with pherror: ', ['', 'RetValue:3'])
('pherror : ', ['', 'RetValue:3'])
I have sent err : --->RetValue:3 <---- and removed it from the list of
errors
Is this expected?
I don't know if there are other reasons but you could download the raw .py
file from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kilon/pyAtlas/master/pyatlas.py
using Metacello Configuration and start the script using OSProcess or
ProcessWrapper. This is how I do it for BioSmalltalk:
>>...
spec for: #'common' do: [
spec blessing: #'baseline'.
spec preLoadDoIt: #preLoad.
>>preLoad
| urlIndex |
urlIndex := 1.
[ self downloadFiles: urlIndex ]
on: ZdcPluginMissing
do: [ : ex |
urlIndex := urlIndex + 1.
ex retry ].
>>downloadFiles: urlIndex
| url response |
url := (self platformFilesUrl at: urlIndex) asZnUrl.
fileRef := FileSystem disk workingDirectory / url pathSegments last.
(response := ZnEasy get: url) isSuccess
ifTrue: [ fileRef writeStreamDo: [ : stream | stream nextPutAll:
response contents ] ]
ifFalse: [ self error: 'Cannot download files' ]
>>platformFilesUrl
" Answer a <Collection> of download URLs for the current platform "
^ Smalltalk os isWin32
ifTrue: [ #('http://...zip'
'http://...zip') ]
ifFalse: [ #('http://....tar.gz'
'http://....tar.gz') ].
