Recommended Posts

Dear community,


i want to install this ide on MX - Linux. 


the uPyCraft IDE .. guess i can use this tutorial:

LINK. https://randomnerdtutorials.com/install-upycraft-ide-linux-ubuntu-instructions/

Downloading uPyCraft IDE for Linux Ubuntu 16.04


Click here to download uPyCraft IDE for Linux Ubuntu 16.04 or go to this

link https://randomnerdtutorials.com/uPyCraftLinux.


Open your Terminal window, navigate to your Downloads folder and list all the files:

$ cd Downloads
$ ls -l
  uPyCraft_linux_V1.X


You should have a similar file (uPyCraft_linux_V1.X) in your Downloads folder. You need to make that file executable with the following command:

$ chmod +x uPyCraft_linux_V1.X


Then, to open/run the uPyCraft IDE software, type the next command:

see the piece of code: 

$ ./uPyCraft_linux_V1.X

love to hear  from you

hello dear MindoverMaster, 

 

many thanks for the quick reply. Great to hear from you. 

 

I do not have Ubuntu here - but i have a MX-Linux here.  But as i want to install uPyCraft on the Mx-System i guess that i can use the above mentioned commands too. Since Ubuntu relies on Debian and MX does too. 

This is all the reason for this above mentioned thread!

 

i sometimes make sure myself in something while writing things down.  And in this case i just wanted to ask you - if you can confirm the idea - that  Since Ubuntu relies on Debian and MX does too  - i would have no issues to install the above mentioned ide on the MX18.03

 

 

update : if i do so i stuck here:

MX is based off Debian, as is Ubuntu. So, MX has the same software as Ubuntu.

 

As for the code, I have no idea. As I do not speak or read German...

well probably i ve forgotten to do some environment-settings.

cf: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/install-upycraft-ide-linux-ubuntu-instructions/#comment-396915
 


    create a virtual env:
    1. CD to the location where you want to create your virtual environment
    [RUN]: python3 -m venv myVirtEnv

    2. To activate the environment

    [RUN]: source myVirtEnv/bin/activate

    2.a If you don’t create a virtual environment, the uPyCraft v1.0 will break a libz package that is old. Seems there is more risk in breaking your OS by downgrading that package.

    3. Follow the steps here:
    github.com/jiapei100/uPyCraft_PyQt5
    

i gonna give it a try  https://randomnerdtutorials.com/install-upycraft-ide-linux-ubuntu-instructions/#comment-396915


i come back and report all the findings.

update: if i go and do that  i get an errormessage 


root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin# python3 -m venv myVirtEnv
The virtual environment was not created successfully because ensurepip is not
available. On Debian/Ubuntu systems, you need to install the python3-venv
package using the following command.

apt-get install python3-venv

You may need to use sudo with that command. After installing the python3-venv
package, recreate your virtual environment.

Failing command: [‘/home/martin/myVirtEnv/bin/python3’, ‘-Im’, ‘ensurepip’, ‘–upgrade’, ‘–default-pip’]

root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin#

 

guess that there are some errors in the code and steps i do ..?

So you've now installed the package that was missing, so go back to the previous step that was failing and asking you to install it, and try that step again

hello dear Dave

 

finally got there :

 

 

i followed the instructions:

https://randomnerdtutorials.com/install-upycraft-ide-linux-ubuntu-instructions/

 

 

Once i have activated the virtual environment,  i  should be able to list out packages using pip list and verify version using python --version.

 

that said - i continued: 

 

python3 -m venv myVirtEnv

root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin# python3 -m venv myVirtEnv

root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin# source myVirtEnv/bin/activate

(myVirtEnv) root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin# python --version

Python 3.5.3

(myVirtEnv) root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin# pip list

DEPRECATION: The default format will switch to columns in the future. You can use --format=(legacy|columns) (or define a format=(legacy|columns) in your pip.conf under the [list] section) to disable this warning.

pip (9.0.1)

pkg-resources (0.0.0)

setuptools (33.1.1)

(myVirtEnv) root@MartinsMX-Rechner:/home/martin#

 

well i guess that i now can proceed with the futher steps
