Could anytree Python library be added for Assembly 4 workbench support? #113

Closed neildarlow closed 1 year ago

neildarlow commented 1 year ago

Hi,

The Assembly 4 workbench has an "Export Files" function (accessible from toolbar and Assembly menu) but this requires the anytree python library which isn't currently a dependency for the FreeCAD flatpak.

Without anytree installed, attempts to use those functions present a warning in the Python Console indicating the library is missing. The relevant Assembly 4 source file for this feature (for reference purposes) is "exportFiles.py".

I understand if there's reluctance to include arbitrary dependencies into the flatpak but this does affect Assembly 4 functionality.

TIA, Neil

Wait, is anytree a prerequisite for A4? If so then it needs to be added via A4 package.xml metadata file that the FreeCAD Addon Manager will reference and auto install.

The xml tag necessary: https://wiki.freecad.org/Package_Metadata#%3Cdepend%3E

Nah, it was added by someone else, I'm going to remove that dependency

Install using addon manager: https://forum.freecad.org/viewtopic.php?p=668000#p668000

or wait for it to be removed from asm4

the dependency is removed in the development branch
