[edit] Install Python

Install python and the python install program pip.

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

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

sudo apt install python3
sudo apt install pip

[edit] 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)

[edit] From zip file

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

[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'.

[edit] 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
