dependency on tkinter? #252

Open shakfu opened 2 years ago

shakfu commented 2 years ago

I was looking forward to running foxdot on a headless rpi with supercollider via ssh when I saw that tkinter of all things is a dependency:

$ python3 -m FoxDot
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.7/runpy.py", line 193, in _run_module_as_main
    "__main__", mod_spec)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.7/runpy.py", line 85, in _run_code
    exec(code, run_globals)
  File "/home/pi/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/FoxDot/__main__.py", line 82, in <module>
    from .lib.Workspace.Editor import workspace
  File "/home/pi/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/FoxDot/lib/Workspace/Editor.py", line 18, in <module>
    from .tkimport import *
  File "/home/pi/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/FoxDot/lib/Workspace/tkimport.py", line 4, in <module>
    from tkinter import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tkinter'

Can this be disabled?

If you want to run FoxDot with the default GUI then, no, it can't be disabled as the interface is built using Tkinter (see README). You can import FoxDot as standalone Python library into your own projects/use it in other editors such as Atom or Emacs
