Any plans for updating to Python3? #12

Closed 9and3 closed 10 months ago

Hello!

Big fan of the action and loved the brilliant way to generate .ghuser components from python and allow easy ci. Thanks!

I was wondering if there were any plans to update this to Python3 with the new Script component of Grasshopper.

I quickly got a look at the python and use pythonnet to replace some functionnalities of IronPython (e.g. the clr module's clr.AddReference(gh_io)), and it outputs the .ghuser files but they are still marked as "old" if imported into the grasshopper canvas.

Would you have any clue how to modify the componentize.py file to port this properly to the new CPython Script component? Would love to give it a go and open a PR if of any utility.

Cheers!

Yes, definitely!

There's a bit of reverse engineering required to understand what are the correct guids and structure that is required for the new script component. One way of exploring this is by saving GH files to GHX and exploring the xml version to figure details out.

Would love to give it a go and open a PR if of any utility.

That would be amazing!

Thanks for the reply @gonzalocasas ! I see, I can't promise anything on how much I will be able to find time and get the new structure but I'll give it a go. I'll open a PR as soon as I will start munching this:)

@gonzalocasas menaged to have a first decent draft for the porting in a new PR: #13 Closing this one if fine for you!
