Extraits de codes
Cette page contient, des exemples, des extraits de code en Python FreeCAD, recueillis auprès d'utilisateurs expérimentés et de produits de discussions sur les forums.
Lisez les et utilisez les comme point de départ pour vos propres scripts . .
Un fichier typique InitGui.py
En plus de votre module principal, chaque module doit contenir, un fichier InitGui.py, responsable de l'insertion du module dans l'interface principale.
Ceci est un simple exemple.
class ScriptWorkbench (Workbench):
MenuText = "Scripts"
def Initialize(self):
import Scripts # assuming Scripts.py is your module
list = ["Script_Cmd"] # That list must contain command names, that can be defined in Scripts.py
self.appendToolbar("My Scripts",list)
Gui.addWorkbench(ScriptWorkbench())
Un fichier module typique
Ceci est l'exemple d'un fichier module principal, il contient tout ce que fait votre module. C'est le fichier Scripts.py invoqué dans l'exemple précédent. Vous avez ici toutes vos commandes personnalisées.
import FreeCAD, FreeCADGui
class ScriptCmd:
def Activated(self):
# Here your write what your ScriptCmd does...
FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage('Hello, World!')
def GetResources(self):
return {'Pixmap' : 'path_to_an_icon/myicon.png', 'MenuText': 'Short text', 'ToolTip': 'More detailed text'}
FreeCADGui.addCommand('Script_Cmd', ScriptCmd())
Importer un nouveau type de fichier
Importer un nouveau type de fichier dans FreeCAD est facile. FreeCAD ne prends pas en considération l'importation de n'importe quelle données dans un document ouvert, parce que, vous ne pouvez pas ouvrir directement un nouveau type de fichier.
Donc, ce que vous devez faire, c'est ajouter la nouvelle extension de fichier à la liste des extensions connues de FreeCAD, et, d'écrire le code qui va lire le fichier et créer les objets FreeCAD que vous voulez.
Cette ligne doit être ajoutée au fichier InitGui.py pour ajouter la nouvelle extension de fichier à la liste:
# Assumes Import_Ext.py is the file that has the code for opening and reading .ext files
FreeCAD.addImportType("Your new File Type (*.ext)","Import_Ext")
Puis, dans le fichier Import_Ext.py, faites:
def open(filename):
doc=App.newDocument()
# here you do all what is needed with filename, read, classify data, create corresponding FreeCAD objects
doc.recompute()
Pour exporter votre document avec une nouvelle extension, le fonctionnement est le même, mais vous devrez faire:
FreeCAD.addExportType("Your new File Type (*.ext)","Export_Ext")
Ajouter une ligne
Une ligne, à uniquement deux points.
import Part,PartGui
doc=App.activeDocument()
# add a line element to the document and set its points
l=Part.Line()
l.StartPoint=(0.0,0.0,0.0)
l.EndPoint=(1.0,1.0,1.0)
doc.addObject("Part::Feature","Line").Shape=l.toShape()
doc.recompute()
Ajouter un polygone
Un polygone est simplement un ensemble de segments connnectés (un polyline dans AutoCAD) il n'est pas obligatoirement fermé.
import Part,PartGui
doc=App.activeDocument()
n=list()
# create a 3D vector, set its coordinates and add it to the list
v=App.Vector(0,0,0)
n.append(v)
v=App.Vector(10,0,0)
n.append(v)
#... repeat for all nodes
# Create a polygon object and set its nodes
p=doc.addObject("Part::Polygon","Polygon")
p.Nodes=n
doc.recompute()
Ajout et suppression d'objet(s) dans un groupe
doc=App.activeDocument()
grp=doc.addObject("App::DocumentObjectGroup", "Group")
lin=doc.addObject("Part::Feature", "Line")
grp.addObject(lin) # adds the lin object to the group grp
grp.removeObject(lin) # removes the lin object from the group grp
PS: vous pouvez aussi ajouter un groupe dans un groupe . . .
Ajout d'une maille (Mesh)
import Mesh
doc=App.activeDocument()
# create a new empty mesh
m = Mesh.Mesh()
# build up box out of 12 facets
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 0.0,0.0,1.0, 0.0,1.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 0.0,1.0,1.0, 0.0,1.0,0.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0, 0.0,0.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 0.0,1.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0,0.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,0.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0,0.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,1.0,0.0, 0.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,1.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,0.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,1.0,1.0, 0.0,0.0,1.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(0.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(1.0,1.0,0.0, 1.0,1.0,1.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0)
m.addFacet(1.0,1.0,0.0, 1.0,0.0,1.0, 1.0,0.0,0.0)
# scale to a edge langth of 100
m.scale(100.0)
# add the mesh to the active document
me=doc.addObject("Mesh::Feature","Cube")
me.Mesh=m
Ajout d'un arc ou d'un cercle
import Part
doc = App.activeDocument()
c = Part.Circle()
c.Radius=10.0
f = doc.addObject("Part::Feature", "Circle") # create a document with a circle feature
f.Shape = c.toShape() # Assign the circle shape to the shape property
doc.recompute()
Accéder et changer la représentation d'un objet
Chaque objet dans un document FreeCAD a un objet vue associé a une représentation qui stocke tous les paramètres qui définissent les propriétés de l'objet, comme, la couleur, l'épaisseur de la ligne, etc ..
gad=Gui.activeDocument() # access the active document containing all
# view representations of the features in the
# corresponding App document
v=gad.getObject("Cube") # access the view representation to the Mesh feature 'Cube'
v.ShapeColor # prints the color to the console
v.ShapeColor=(1.0,1.0,1.0) # sets the shape color to white
Observing mouse events in the 3D viewer via Python
The Inventor framework allows to add one or more callback nodes to the scenegraph of the viewer. By default in FreeCAD one callback node is installed per viewer which allows to add global or static C++ functions. In the appropriate Python binding some methods are provided to make use of this technique from within Python code.
App.newDocument()
v=Gui.activeDocument().activeView()
#This class logs any mouse button events. As the registered callback function fires twice for 'down' and
#'up' events we need a boolean flag to handle this.
class ViewObserver:
def logPosition(self, info):
down = (info["State"] == "DOWN")
pos = info["Position"]
if (down):
FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage("Clicked on position: ("+str(pos[0])+", "+str(pos[1])+")\n")
o = ViewObserver()
c = v.addEventCallback("SoMouseButtonEvent",o.logPosition)
Now, pick somewhere on the area in the 3D viewer and observe the messages in the output window. To finish the observation just call
v.removeEventCallback("SoMouseButtonEvent",c)
The following event types are supported
- SoEvent -- all kind of events
- SoButtonEvent -- all mouse button and key events
- SoLocation2Event -- 2D movement events (normally mouse movements)
- SoMotion3Event -- 3D movement events (normally spaceball)
- SoKeyboardEvent -- key down and up events
- SoMouseButtonEvent -- mouse button down and up events
- SoSpaceballButtonEvent -- spaceball button down and up events
The Python function that can be registered with addEventCallback() expects a dictionary. Depending on the watched event the dictionary can contain different keys.
For all events it has the keys:
- Type -- the name of the event type i.e. SoMouseEvent, SoLocation2Event, ...
- Time -- the current time as string
- Position -- a tuple of two integers, mouse position
- ShiftDown -- a boolean, true if Shift was pressed otherwise false
- CtrlDown -- a boolean, true if Ctrl was pressed otherwise false
- AltDown -- a boolean, true if Alt was pressed otherwise false
For all button events, i.e. keyboard, mouse or spaceball events
- State -- A string 'UP' if the button was up, 'DOWN' if it was down or 'UNKNOWN' for all other cases
For keyboard events:
- Key -- a character of the pressed key
For mouse button event
- Button -- The pressed button, could be BUTTON1, ..., BUTTON5 or ANY
For spaceball events:
- Button -- The pressed button, could be BUTTON1, ..., BUTTON7 or ANY
And finally motion events:
- Translation -- a tuple of three floats
- Rotation -- a quaternion for the rotation, i.e. a tuple of four floats
Manipulate the scenegraph in Python
It is also possible to get and change the scenegraph in Python, with the 'pivy' module -- a Python binding for Coin.
from pivy.coin import * # load the pivy module
view = Gui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView # get the active viewer
root = view.getSceneGraph() # the root is an SoSeparator node
root.addChild(SoCube())
view.fitAll()
The Python API of pivy is created by using the tool SWIG. As we use in FreeCAD some self-written nodes you cannot create them directly in Python. However, it is possible to create a node by its internal name. An instance of the type 'SoFCSelection' can be created with
type = SoType.fromName("SoFCSelection")
node = type.createInstance()
Adding and removing objects to/from the scenegraph
Adding new nodes to the scenegraph can be done this way. Take care of always adding a SoSeparator to contain the geometry, coordinates and material info of a same object. The following example adds a red line from (0,0,0) to (10,0,0):
from pivy import coin
sg = Gui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView.getSceneGraph()
co = coin.SoCoordinate3()
pts = [[0,0,0],[10,0,0]]
co.point.setValues(0,len(pts),pts)
ma = coin.SoBaseColor()
ma.rgb = (1,0,0)
li = coin.SoLineSet()
li.numVertices.setValue(2)
no = coin.SoSeparator()
no.addChild(co)
no.addChild(ma)
no.addChild(li)
sg.addChild(no)
To remove it, simply issue:
sg.removeChild(no)
Adding custom widgets to the interface
You can create custom widgets with Qt designer, transform them into a python script, and then load them into the FreeCAD interface with PyQt4.
The python code produced by the Ui python compiler (the tool that converts qt-designer .ui files into python code) generally looks like this (it is simple, you can also code it directly in python):
class myWidget_Ui(object):
def setupUi(self, myWidget):
myWidget.setObjectName("my Nice New Widget")
myWidget.resize(QtCore.QSize(QtCore.QRect(0,0,300,100).size()).expandedTo(myWidget.minimumSizeHint())) # sets size of the widget
self.label = QtGui.QLabel(myWidget) # creates a label
self.label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(50,50,200,24)) # sets its size
self.label.setObjectName("label") # sets its name, so it can be found by name
def retranslateUi(self, draftToolbar): # built-in QT function that manages translations of widgets
myWidget.setWindowTitle(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "My Widget", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8))
self.label.setText(QtGui.QApplication.translate("myWidget", "Welcome to my new widget!", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8))
Then, all you need to do is to create a reference to the FreeCAD Qt window, insert a custom widget into it, and "transform" this widget into yours with the Ui code we just made:
app = QtGui.qApp
FCmw = app.activeWindow() # the active qt window, = the freecad window since we are inside it
myNewFreeCADWidget = QtGui.QDockWidget() # create a new dckwidget
myNewFreeCADWidget.ui = myWidget_Ui() # load the Ui script
myNewFreeCADWidget.ui.setupUi(myNewFreeCADWidget) # setup the ui
FCmw.addDockWidget(QtCore.Qt.RightDockWidgetArea,myNewFreeCADWidget) # add the widget to the main window
Adding a Tab to the Combo View
The following code allows you to add a tab to the FreeCAD ComboView, besides the "Project" and "Tasks" tabs. It also uses the uic module to load an ui file directly in that tab.
from PyQt4 import QtGui,QtCore
from PyQt4 import uic
#from PySide import QtGui,QtCore
def getMainWindow():
"returns the main window"
# using QtGui.qApp.activeWindow() isn't very reliable because if another
# widget than the mainwindow is active (e.g. a dialog) the wrong widget is
# returned
toplevel = QtGui.qApp.topLevelWidgets()
for i in toplevel:
if i.metaObject().className() == "Gui::MainWindow":
return i
raise Exception("No main window found")
def getComboView(mw):
dw=mw.findChildren(QtGui.QDockWidget)
for i in dw:
if str(i.objectName()) == "Combo View":
return i.findChild(QtGui.QTabWidget)
raise Exception("No tab widget found")
mw = getMainWindow()
tab = getComboView(getMainWindow())
tab2=QtGui.QDialog()
tab.addTab(tab2,"A Special Tab")
uic.loadUi("/myTaskPanelforTabs.ui",tab2)
tab2.show()
#tab.removeTab(2)
Opening a custom webpage
import WebGui
WebGui.openBrowser("http://www.example.com")
Getting the HTML contents of an opened webpage
from PyQt4 import QtGui,QtWebKit
a = QtGui.qApp
mw = a.activeWindow()
v = mw.findChild(QtWebKit.QWebFrame)
html = unicode(v.toHtml())
print html
