Can't install #58

Closed GongSiqiu closed 5 years ago

GongSiqiu commented 5 years ago

I copied relevant folder into ~/.kicad_plugins and refresh plugins. But these tools didn't show up in external plugins. I tried to copy kicad/demos/python_scripts_examples/action_plugin_test_undoredo.py there, this script works well. So I want to know some details about the installation. Thank you!

You do have to restart KiCad. Just refreshing from within KiCad is not enough (at least on Windows).

And the exact folder setup is ~/.kicad_plugins/replicate_layout/ for replicate_layout plugin for example?

I tried restart and undoredo worked well while replicate_layout failed

Thanks for persisting. I know it can be a bit frustrating as I am at computer only twice a day for less than an hour so the discussion tempo is quite slow.

Just to avoid any misunderstandings due to the markdown representation the path to replicatelayout.py is ~/.kicad_plugins/replicate_layout/replicatelayout.py? Also the init.py has two underscores in prepended and appended? Please confirm this.

Can you delete Replicate_layout_error.log and launch KiCad again and if Replicate_layout_error.log gets created, please attach it here.

It's very kind of you. Thanks for your patience.

replicatelayout.py is ~/.kicad_plugins/replicate_layout/replicatelayout.py the init.py has two underscores in prepended and appended

Replicate_layout_error.log has only one line ModuleNotFoundError("No module named 'wx'") Replicate_layout_error.log

Installed something about wx, I maybe solved this problem. Thank you very much!
