Is there any way to use the default `opengate/contrib/GateMaterials.db` in my simulation? #337

          Is there any way to use the default `opengate/contrib/GateMaterials.db` in my simulation?

I wrote a custom function add_default_material_database(sim) in opengate/contrib/__init__.py in my local installation of opengate. Is there a better way to use the default GateMaterials?

Function add_default_material_database(sim) 
import pathlib
def add_default_material_database(sim):

    # Assuming your base directory is where your script or application is located
    base_directory = pathlib.Path(__file__).resolve().parent

    # Define the path to the "opengate.contrib" folder
    opengate_contrib_folder = base_directory / "opengate.contrib"

    sim.volume_manager.add_material_database(pathlib.Path(__file__).resolve().parent / "GateMaterials.db")
