Homebrew-formula FlatCAM\n\nThis is an unofficial tap repository for homebrew [FlatCAM](http://flatcam.org/) to make installation on macOS easier.\n\n## Installation\n\n```sh\nbrew tap tomoyanonymous/flatcam\n\n# Beta 8.995 w/ PyQt6(https://bitbucket.org/marius_stanciu/flatcam_beta/src/Beta_8.995/)\nbrew install flatcam-evo\n# Beta 8.994 w/ PyQt5(https://bitbucket.org/jpcgt/flatcam/src/Beta)\nbrew install flatcam-beta\n# classic w/ PyQt4 (No more recommended)\nbrew install flatcam\n```\n\nAfter the installation, simply you can run the app from a command `flatcam`[^flatcam-evo].\n\n[^flatcam-evo]: Previously `flatcam-evo` created a link to `flatcam-evo` command but it now creates a command `flatcam` as same as others. \n\nNote: If you failed to launch after upgrade, remove `~/.FlatCAM` (temporary config directory).\n\nConfirmed working on arm architectures.(OS Sequoia 15.5 / Macbook Air M1 2020).\n\n## 3 versions of flatcam\n\nBecause flatcam is not strictly versioned, you can choose 3 different versions on this formula.\n\nOne is v 8.9.995, `flatcam-evo`, most frequently maintained version by Marius Stanciu, which uses PyQt6.\n\nhttps://bitbucket.org/marius_stanciu/flatcam_beta/src/Beta_8.995/\n\nAnother is 8.9.94, `flatcam-beta` formula, which is on Beta branch on original repository mainly maintained by Stanciu, which uses PyQt5.\n\nhttps://bitbucket.org/jpcgt/flatcam/src/Beta\n\nThe last one is v8.5.0, on master branch of an original repo. https://bitbucket.org/jpcgt/flatcam which was developed by Juan Pablo Caram and no longer maintained by him.This version uses PyQt4. However, old Qt is not provided through from homebrew-core. Thus the formula depends on unofficial tap `cartr/qt4`. *This formula is mostly kept on a historical purpose, not recommended to install anymore.* \n\nAlso, note that flatcam package on pip is yet another unofficial version, which says the version is 0.8.5 but it uses pyqt5.\n\n## Why this formula is unofficialy maintained for years?\n\nBecause that the formula does some unrecommended manner in an installation, this formula won't be merged to homebrew-core.\n\n**Uses binary installation in pip install.** Homebrew usually recommends to build a binary from source including python packages. However, `ortools`, one of dependencies does not provide a way to install it other than using wheel (built package for python). Thus, in the formula uses normal `pip install -r requirements.txt`. Also, `requirements.txt` seems to be missing `descartes` package so the formula will additinally install it.\n\n**Symlinks for main file** In v8.5.0, the main executable file was `flatcam` but in Beta branch, it's `FlatCAM.py`. To use it from CLI directly, the formula prepends shebang `#!/usr/local/Cellar/flatcam-beta/8.9.94/libexec/python` and create symlink to the file in `/usr/local/Cellar/flatcam-beta/8.9.94/bin/flatcam`.\n\n## If you encountered errors\n\nSee [CONTRIBUTING](CONTRIBUTING.md)\n\n## Author\n\nMatsuura Tomoya\n\n\u003chttps://matsuuratomoya.com\u003e\n\n## License\n\nMIT\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftomoyanonymous%2Fhomebrew-flatcam","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ftomoyanonymous%2Fhomebrew-flatcam","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftomoyanonymous%2Fhomebrew-flatcam/lists"}
