MS402 python plugin - Githubissues

idhamari commented 4 years ago

Currently to add new opensim objects one needs to write a cpp code that generates a library e.g. the BodyDragForce library.
This library then loaded to opensim to be used.
The goal of this task to replace the use of the library by using simple python script e.g. add a new element to the tool menu "Load Python Plugin".
- this will help to avoid working with cpp by non-programmers users and avoid the need for compilation anymore.

useful reference: https://simtk-confluence.stanford.edu:8443/display/OpenSim/Using+Plugins

some workaround ideas:

using cpp builder.
- uses a cpp template e.g. a button that creates new plugin
- during this, we search the system for available compitable cpp compiler, if not found, a dialog should appear for the user t define the location.
- the user modified the cpp for his need.
- the user press build plugin button to compile the cpp file, generate the library and load it to opensimQt.

@riteshsv how is everything so far?

riteshsv commented 4 years ago

@idhamari I am working on the plugin part and have found a solution. I start testing it tomorrow and provide you with a feedback.

idhamari commented 4 years ago

@riteshsv sounds great! looking forward to seeing it.

idhamari commented 4 years ago

@riteshsv is there an update regarding this issue? the deadline is the end of this month.

riteshsv commented 4 years ago

@idhamari I am working on the same. not able to get a breakthrough. i am still trying.

idhamari commented 4 years ago

@riteshsv as I mentioned before it is very challenging task to be done by one person in the provided time, that is why I suggested you contact @yasseerr and cooperate to complete it. Please arrange an online meeting to discuss with him how to proceed.

riteshsv commented 4 years ago

@idhamari I agree with you. I will discuss with @yasseerr. I am onto a task today, and will discuss with yasseer tomorrow or as and when he has time. I will speak to him.

idhamari commented 4 years ago

@riteshsv @yasseerr what about we meet to discuss this tomorrow at 18:00 German time? (note that we are in winter-time now)

yasseerr commented 4 years ago

@idhamari @riteshsv i'm down to discuss it tomorrow 18:00 GMT+2

idhamari commented 4 years ago

@yasseerr if we don't hear from @riteshsv until 16:00 German time, then the meeting is canceled.

riteshsv commented 4 years ago

@idhamari @yasseerr I am sorry folks. I was down with fever and my sinusitis symptoms were aggravated. Please let me know your convenient time to discuss.

idhamari commented 4 years ago

@riteshsv @idhamari Hi i dont think i will be connected tommorow (outside trip), it it was canceled i will join you at 15:00

riteshsv commented 3 years ago

@idhamari I tried but could not get it working. It is not impossible, but just that I am not sure how long it will take to make it work. So, i think, we should drop the idea for now and move forward. I will keep a tab over my ideas and as soon as i get something I will try.

Also, you might be aware that we have diwali, our biggest festival. So, I will be on holiday for a week now. Apart from that I would like to take a break till the end of December 2020, because I have to prepare for IELTS exams. planning to immigrate to Canada.
