Cannot find the .pymodaq folder

[HeisenbergK]

Hello,

I installed using the recommended procedure in https://pymodaq-femto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage/Installation.html using Anaconda. I am trying to run simulator but I get the error: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'Library/Application Support/.pymodaq'

Thanks in advance!

Hi, Can you let us know which python version you are using, as well as pymodaq and pymodaq_femto versions? (obtained with 'pip list' in a command line)

Thanks!

I am on Python 3.8.19 (I saw you recommending Python 3.8) and the pip list gives me a pymodaq 4.2.3 with a pymodaq_femto at 2.0.0. Full python versioning and pip list below:

This is an issue of configuration files. Pymodaq creates folder and save config files in a folder that should be accessible to all user. We test this a lot on windows and Linux but not on mac os. This is maybe just an issue of read/write access on these files.

I tested the same exact setup but on a Windows and a Linux and it did indeed work. I have experience with MacO, enough Apple PCs to be able to play with and can twinkle a bit with them and other systems. Would you be interested in me looking into potentially bug-fixing it? All I need is some guide to the script that is supposed to set the .pymodaq folder up. I think I can then find a way for it to work in MacOS, or at least try.

[seb5g]

The default path is included in :

at PyMoDAQ first import, the program will try to create a .pymodaq folder at this directory. If it doesn't not have write access, it will complain. Look in this direction please
