robot_designer_plugin.core.pluginmanager module

This sub module contains the PluginManager that handles automatic registration of classes.

class robot_designer_plugin.core.pluginmanager.PluginManager[source]

Bases: object

This class handles the automatic registration of classes to Blender.

PluginTypes: alias of robot_designer_plugin.core.pluginmanager.PluginType

classmethod clear()[source]: When a plugin is required to be reloadable (which it should be during development) each module is imported twice. Therefore, this method is called before the modules are reloaded.

classmethod getFilePlugins(type_=PluginType.FILE)[source]: Warning

The plugin system is still under development.

classmethod get_icon(id)[source]

Parameters: id (str) –
Returns

classmethod get_property(obj, prop)[source]

Parameters

obj –
prop –

Returns

classmethod load_icon(id, filename)[source]

Parameters

id (str) – ID of the label
filename (str) – Relative to config/resource_path

Returns

None

classmethod register()[source]: Called from the top-level robot_designer_plugin.register() function in the __init__.py of the plugin. Registers all data collected during import.

static register_class(*args)[source]

Class decorator for operators.RDOperator, bpy.types.Menu, bpy.types.PropertyGroup (and more bpy classes) and gui.CollapsibleBox.

An example of how to use this decorator is given in operators.RDOperator.

Parameters: args – For now, no arguments should be passed to the decorator.

classmethod register_collapsible(property_name)[source]: Called when a class of type gui.CollapsibleBox is created.

classmethod register_plugin(label, operators, draw_function=None, type_=PluginType.FILE)[source]: Warning

The plugin system is still under development.

static register_property_group(base=None)[source]

classmethod register_property_groups(property_group, btype)[source]

Properties have to be assigned to blender types. This function collects all properties and assigns them when register() is called and unloads them when unregister() is called.

Parameters

property_group – A class derived from bpy.types.PropertyGroup.
btype – Any type defined in bpy.types.

Returns

classmethod unregister()[source]: Called from the top-level robot_designer_plugin.unregister() function in the __init__.py of the plugin. Removes all data collected during import.
