This is a work in # progress, so not all geometry elements of FreeCAD might be suported at # this point. The development of this addon happens on the FreeCAD forum # at https://forum.freecadweb.org (no thread yet, please # create one ;) !) # WARNING # This addon requires FreeCAD to be installed on your system. # A word of warning, your version of FreeCAD must be compiled # with the same version of python as Blender. The first two # numbers of the python version must be the same. For example, # if Blender is using Pyhon 3.7.2, your version of FreeCAD must # use Python 3.7 too (the third number after 3.7 # # Once you have a Python3 version of FreeCAD installed, the FreeCAD # Python module must be known to Blender. There are several ways to obtain # this: # # 1) Set the correct path to FreeCAD.so (or FreeCAD.pyd on windows) in # the Addons preferences in user settings, there is a setting for # that under the addon panel # # 2) Copy or symlink FreeCAD.so (or FreeCAD.pyd on windows) to one of the # directories from the list you get when doing this in a Python console: # # import sys; print(sys.path) # # On Debian/Ubuntu and most Linux systems, an easy way to do this is is # to symlink FreeCAD.so to your local (user) python modules folder: # # ln -s /path/to/FreeCAD.so /home/YOURUSERNAME/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages # # (make sure to use the same python version your blender is using instead # of 3.6) # # 3) A more brutal way if the others fail is to uncomment the following line # and set the correct path to where your FreeCAD.so or FreeCAD.pyd resides: # # import sys; sys.path.append("/path/to/FreeCAD.so") # # A simple way to test if everything is OK is to enter the following line # in the Python console of Blender. If no error message appears, # everything is fine: # # import FreeCAD # TODO # support clones + hires # support texts, dimensions, etc (non-part/mesh objects) # HISTORY # v1.0.0 - 12 june 2018 - initial release - basically working # v2.0.0 - 21 june 2018 - option to turn cycles mat on/off, per-face material support, # use of polygons when possible, shared materials # v3.0.0 - 06 february 2019 - ported to Blender 2.80 # v4.0.0 - 07 february 2019 - API changes + support of transparency # v5.0.0 - 13 august 2019 - small fixes and better info messages if things go wrong import sys, bpy, xml.sax, zipfile, os from bpy_extras.node_shader_utils import PrincipledBSDFWrapper TRIANGULATE = False # set to True to triangulate all faces (will loose multimaterial info) class FreeCAD_xml_handler(xml.sax.ContentHandler): """A XML handler to process the FreeCAD GUI xml data""" # this creates a dictionary where each key is a FC object name, # and each value is a dictionary of property:value pairs def __init__(self): self.guidata = {} self.current = None self.properties = {} self.currentprop = None self.currentval = None # Call when an element starts def startElement(self, tag, attributes): if tag == "ViewProvider": self.current = attributes["name"] elif tag == "Property": name = attributes["name"] if name in ["Visibility","ShapeColor","Transparency","DiffuseColor"]: self.currentprop = name elif tag == "Bool": if attributes["value"] == "true": self.currentval = True else: self.currentval = False elif tag == "PropertyColor": c = int(attributes["value"]) r = float((c>>24)&0xFF)/255.0 g = float((c>>16)&0xFF)/255.0 b = float((c>>8)&0xFF)/255.0 self.currentval = (r,g,b) elif tag == "Integer": self.currentval = int(attributes["value"]) elif tag == "Float": self.currentval = float(attributes["value"]) elif tag == "ColorList": self.currentval = attributes["file"] # Call when an elements ends def endElement(self, tag): if tag == "ViewProvider": if self.current and self.properties: self.guidata[self.current] = self.properties self.current = None self.properties = {} elif tag == "Property": if self.currentprop and (self.currentval != None): self.properties[self.currentprop] = self.currentval self.currentprop = None self.currentval = None def import_fcstd(filename, update=True, placement=True, tessellation=1.0, skiphidden=True, scale=1.0, sharemats=True, report=None): """Reads a FreeCAD .FCStd file and creates Blender objects""" try: # append the FreeCAD path specified in addon preferences user_preferences = bpy.context.preferences addon_prefs = user_preferences.addons[__name__].preferences path = addon_prefs.filepath if path: if os.path.isfile(path): path = os.path.dirname(path) print("Configured FreeCAD path:",path) sys.path.append(path) else: print("FreeCAD path is not configured in preferences") import FreeCAD except: print("Unable to import the FreeCAD Python module.
