Start the command window  by searching for 'cmd' after pressing Start.
Install python and the python install program pip.


In the command window type
=== Windows ===
python
Python 3.6.9 (default, Oct  8 2020, 12:12:24)
on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> quit()


This should start python and write the version number. Version must be 3.X.X.
Install Python from Microsoft store (Includes pip).
(Should be python version 3.x)


If not installed, then install from Microsoft store, you will probably be directed directly, if not installed.
=== Mac ===


=== Install packages ===
Install Python (version 3.x)
Maybe it is installed by default
(I have no MAC)


At the CMD prompt install
=== Linux ===


  > pip install pyqt5
install pip (Python Install Program)
 
sudo apt install python3
sudo apt install pip
 
== Install Python packages ==
 
=== Windows ===
 
Open a terminal window (search for 'cmd' app)
 
At the command prompt install these packages:
 
> pip install pyqt4
  > pip install pyserial
  > pip install pyqtgraph
  > pip install pyqtgraph
  > pip install pyserial
  > pip install numpy


If everything goes well, then you are ready to run the GUI from the Python script.
=== MAC ===


===Install SVN=== 
The same packages are needed.


The source is on a SVN repository, if not available, then install:
=== Linux ===


Install TortoiseSVN from https://subversion.apache.org
> pip install pyqt5
On left menu find "Binary packages" and from here the 'Windows' section
> pip install pyqtgraph
> pip install pyserial
> pip install numpy


* Download TortoiseSVN
== Get REGBOT GUI ==
* Install, and remember to add 'command line' support.
* restart a 'cmd' terminal after installation


=== Get REGBOTGUI python script ===
The REGBOT GUI is just a set of python files


At the windows command terminal, do a checkout.
There are two options
Change to the Downloads folder (makes it easier to find (under Overførsler på dansk))
* Get the python files from a zip-file (available in Learn)
* Get the newest version from repository (SVN)


> cd Downloads
=== From zip file ===
> svn checkout svn://repos.gbar.dtu.dk/jcan/regbot/regbotgui


Find the directory in your file browser (Stifinder)
Unzip the Python files (many files (23), so keep them in a clean directory).


Start the file 'regbot.py' - may be create shortcut on the desktop.
=== From SVN repository ===


=== Regbot GUI ===
Make sure your PC has SVN (Apache subversion) support.


See the [[User interface]]
===== Windows =====


Install e.g. SilkSVN (https://sliksvn.com/download/), this is a command-line interface, but there are other packages too.


== Make a windows EXE file ==
Start a 'cmd' terminal after installation.


If you installed all the python stuff, then you don't need the exe file.
===== Linux (and MAC) =====


To make a single exe-file without need to install anything, then it is a bit more complicated (for me at least)
sudo apt install subversion


The Microsoft version failed in creating the exe-file
==== Get the GUI Python files ====


===Install python===
Open a terminal window, change the directory, to where you want to install, e.g. called 'svn'


* Remove already installed python.
mkdir svn
cd svn
svn checkout svn://repos.gbar.dtu.dk/jcan/regbot/regbot_gui
cd regbot_gui


* Install python from https://www.python.org/downloads/ - select install for 'all users' in install options and also select 'add to path'.
There should be several Python files, including 'regbot.py'.


After installation, start 'cmd' terminal windows as administrator (rightclick on 'cmd' select 'as administrator'), to install additional packages using 'pip'.
== Start the Regbot GUI ==
 
> pip install pyqt5
> pip install pygraph
> pip install pyserial
> pip install pyinstaller
> exit


Open a 'cmd' terminal window as normal user
Go to the directory, where the Python files are placed.


Then make the EXE-file from the directory with the REGBOT GUI
* Execute the 'regbot.py' file.


> cd Downloads
From a terminal
> cd regbotgui
> pyinstaller --onefile regbot.py


This takes some time, and the regbot.exe should be found in a 'dist' subdirectory.
cd regbot_gui
python3 regbot.py

Install Python

Install python and the python install program pip.

Windows

Install Python from Microsoft store (Includes pip). (Should be python version 3.x)

Mac

Install Python (version 3.x) Maybe it is installed by default (I have no MAC)

Linux

install pip (Python Install Program) 

sudo apt install python3
sudo apt install pip

Install Python packages

Windows

Open a terminal window (search for 'cmd' app)

At the command prompt install these packages: 

> pip install pyqt4
> pip install pyserial
> pip install pyqtgraph
> pip install numpy

MAC

The same packages are needed.

Linux

> pip install pyqt5
> pip install pyqtgraph
> pip install pyserial
> pip install numpy

Get REGBOT GUI

The REGBOT GUI is just a set of python files

There are two options

  • Get the python files from a zip-file (available in Learn)
  • Get the newest version from repository (SVN)

From zip file

Unzip the Python files (many files (23), so keep them in a clean directory).

From SVN repository

Make sure your PC has SVN (Apache subversion) support.

Windows

Install e.g. SilkSVN (https://sliksvn.com/download/), this is a command-line interface, but there are other packages too.

Start a 'cmd' terminal after installation.

Linux (and MAC)

sudo apt install subversion

Get the GUI Python files

Open a terminal window, change the directory, to where you want to install, e.g. called 'svn' 

mkdir svn
cd svn
svn checkout svn://repos.gbar.dtu.dk/jcan/regbot/regbot_gui
cd regbot_gui

There should be several Python files, including 'regbot.py'.

Start the Regbot GUI

Go to the directory, where the Python files are placed.

  • Execute the 'regbot.py' file.

From a terminal 

cd regbot_gui
python3 regbot.py
