Description

I'm trying to install LibreOffice wrapper on my ubuntu 20.04 LTS, following the Instruction at http://www.coolprop.org/coolprop/wrappers/LibreOffice/index.html

The link to "LibreOffice" points at http://sourceforge.net/projects/coolprop/files/CoolProp/6.4.1/LibreOffice but there's no such folder and I could not find the CoolProp.oxt file in there.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Go to http://www.coolprop.org/coolprop/wrappers/LibreOffice/index.html
  2. Click on "Libre Office" hyperlink (http://www.coolprop.org/coolprop/wrappers/LibreOffice/index.html)
  3. On the new page I cannot find the relevant CoolProp.oxt file

Expected behavior: [What you expect to happen] Find somewhere the CoolProp.oxt file

Actual behavior: [What actually happens] No file

@spinnau Any idea?

spinnau commented 3 years ago

The LibreOffice CoolProp.oxt extension was not built and uploaded to sourceforge within the release process. I have built the Extension for CoolProp 6.4.1 CoolProp.oxt.zip (download the file and rename it to CoolProp.oxt).

Can we somehow make building the LibreOffice extension be part of the regular release procedure?

I have also seen that the abi-tag in the wheel-files changed with Python-3.8 from cp37m to cp38. Since the LibreOffice extension internally downloads and uses the Python package, I will adopt this change and create a PR.

Hey, thank you @spinnau for the Extension for CoolPro :).

I am on Ubuntu 2022 / LibreOfice 7.342 and the macros seems to work :).

So, I am discovering thermodynamics, I have to find some simple exercises with CoolProp :).

Thank you for sharing.

Thanks again to @spinnau. It got confusing creating the extension myself and got errors, but I used your extension, and still works 2 years in.
