Python Module Structure
I planned on recommending the Python Module Structure upgrade but I ended up doing the work myself.
TLDR, I upgraded the addon structure to the 'new' Python Module Structure that loads addons similar to Python package / modules.
The changes consist of the following:
- Source code / assets relevant during runtime are
moved into a
freecad/Dynamic_Datasubfolder. - The new entrypoints are
__init__&init_gui - Separated the README media from the runtime assets
- Fixed up the imports - though relative imports would be cleaner
- Updated the README media links
This change isolates the addons files into it's own namespace meaning you can name them whatever you want without crashing into other addons files!
Again relative imports are now easy and preferred.
Please test test test.
Also before merging you might want to consider creating
a new GitHub release for the CURRENT code. I'd recommend
calling the tag v0.2.75 or v2.75.0
( Not sure, please correct the version string in the
manifest, semantic versioning requires the format x.y.z )
Afterwards I'd increase the version and merge.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Thanks for the PR. Seems to work okay so far. I'll use it for a while before merging, but I haven't been using FreeCAD much lately.
