At the windows command terminal, do a checkout.

=== From zip file ===
−
Change to the Downloads folder (makes it easier to find (under Overførsler på dansk))
+

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

Find the directory in your file browser (Stifinder)

=== From SVN repository ===
  
−
Start the file 'regbot.py' - maybe create a shortcut on the desktop.
+
Make sure your PC has SVN (Apache subversion) support.
  
−
=== Regbot GUI use===
+
===== Windows =====
  
−
See the [[User interface]]
+
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
−
* 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'.
+
svn checkout svn://repos.gbar.dtu.dk/jcan/regbot/regbot_gui
−
 
+
  cd regbot_gui
−
After installation, start 'cmd' terminal windows as administrator (rightclick on 'cmd' select 'as administrator'), to install additional packages using 'pip'. (may work as user - i Haven't tested).
+
−
 
+
−
> pip install pyqt5
+
−
> pip install pyqtgraph
+
−
> pip install pyserial
+
−
> pip install pyinstaller
+
−
  > exit
+
  
−
Open a 'cmd' terminal window as normal user
+
There should be several Python files, including 'regbot.py'.
  
−
Then make the EXE-file from the directory with the REGBOT GUI
+
== Start the Regbot GUI ==
  
−
> cd Downloads\regbotgui
+
Go to the directory, where the Python files are placed.
−
> pyinstaller --onefile regbot.py
+
  
−
This takes some time, and the regbot.exe should be found in a 'dist' subdirectory.
+
* Execute the 'regbot.py' file.
  
−
Try:
+
From a terminal
−
> cd dist
+
−
> regbot.exe
+
  
−
PS! tried also with Python 3.9, but regbot.exe failed with error: "PyQt5.sip not found".
+
cd regbot_gui
 +
python3 regbot.py

The REGBOT GUI is just a set of python files

There are two options

[edit] From SVN repository

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

[edit] 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.

[edit] Linux (and MAC)

sudo apt install subversion

[edit] 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'.
