|
| |
| == Run the GUI ==
| |
|
| |
| === The python version ===
| |
|
| |
| In the regbot_gui directory, run the regbot.py script.
| |
|
| |
| * On Linux, this command line should work:
| |
|
| |
| cd regbot_gui
| |
| python3 regbot.py
| |
|
| |
| * On Windows
| |
|
| |
| Find the directory in your file browser (Stifinder)
| |
|
| |
| Start the file 'regbot.py' - maybe create a shortcut on the desktop.
| |
|
| |
| If there are errors about libraries, then check if they are installed (from the list above).
| |
|
| |
| === Regbot.exe for Windows ===
| |
|
| |
| A windows executable is generated (using the instructions below); this is found in a subdirectory called "dist".
| |
|
| |
| > cd Downloads
| |
| > cd regbot
| |
| > cd regbot_gui
| |
| > cd dist
| |
| > regbot
| |
|
| |
| Use the browser to locate the file and execute it.
| |
| It also holds all the needed python-libraries, so it takes a long time to start.
| |
|
| |
| The regbot.exe file is made on a Windows 10 (I don't have anything newer if there are problems; revert to the Python version)
| |
|
| |
| NB! the version from 2022 does not work anymore; it has to have a date from 2023.
| |
|
| |
| === Regbot GUI use===
| |
|
| |
| See the [[User interface]]
| |
|
| |
| == Make a windows EXE file ==
| |
|
| |
| If you installed all the python stuff, you don't need the exe file.
| |
|
| |
| To make a single exe-file without the need to install anything, then it is a bit more complicated (for me at least)
| |
|
| |
| ===Install python===
| |
|
| |
| * Install python (tested with version 3.8) from https://www.python.org/downloads/ - select 'all users' in install options and also select 'add to path'.
| |
|
| |
| After installation, start 'cmd' terminal windows as administrator (right-click on 'cmd' and select 'as administrator') to install additional packages using 'pip'.
| |
|
| |
| > pip install pyqt5
| |
| > pip install pyqtgraph
| |
| > pip install pyserial
| |
| > pip install pyinstaller
| |
| > exit
| |
|
| |
| ===Generate EXE file ===
| |
|
| |
| Open a 'cmd' terminal window as a normal user
| |
|
| |
| Then make the EXE-file from the directory with the REGBOT GUI
| |
|
| |
| > cd Downloads\regbot_gui
| |
| > pyinstaller --onefile regbot.py
| |
|
| |
| This takes some time, and the regbot.exe should be found in a 'dist' subdirectory.
| |
|
| |
| Try:
| |
| > cd dist
| |
| > regbot.exe
| |
|
| |
| PS! tried also with Python 3.9, but regbot.exe failed with the error: "PyQt5.sip not found".

Back to Regbot
Back to Robobot
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
