dtool-lookup-gui 0.3.0

Installation

The application uses setuptools. It can be installed with pip:

pip install dtool-lookup-gui

If you want the latest development release, then use:

pip install git+https://github.com/IMTEK-Simulation/dtool-lookup-gui.git

When already clone into a local directly via git, either use pip or install via the standard route

python setup.py install

Running the GUI

After installation, run the GUI with:

python -m dtool_lookup_gui

Note that when you run the GUI for the first time, you will need to configure the URL of the lookup and the authentication server as well as provide a username and a password. To do this, click on the “Burger” symbol and select Settings.

Installation on MacOS

The pip package for PyGObject has another name for macos. So comment it out in setup.py, install it following the instructions and then run pip install /path/to/dtool-gui

You also need to install the gnome icons in order for them to be displayed properly:

brew install gnome-icon-theme

If you get the error

A possible fix is
