Introduction

Además de los tipos de objetos estándar, tales como anotaciones, mallas y objetos de pieza, FreeCAD también ofrece la estupenda posibilidad de construir objetos de archivos de guión hechos al 100% en Python, llamados Funcionalidades Python (Feature Python). Esos objetos se comportan exactamente como cualquier otro objeto de FreeCAD, y se guardar y restauran automáticamente al guardar o cargar archivos.

Debe comprenderse una particularidad, dichos objetos son guardados en archivos FcStd de FreeCAD con el módulo de Python cPickle. Este módulo devuelve un objeto de Python como una cadena de texto, permitiendo que se añada al guardado del archivo. En la carga, el módulo cPickle utiliza esa cadena de texto para recrear los objetos originales, proporcionándole acceso al código fuente que creó el objeto. Es decir que si guardas un objeto personalizado y lo abres en un ordenador en el que el código de Python que generó dicho objeto no está presente, el objeto no será recreado. Si distribuyes dichos objetos a otros usuarios, tendrás que distribuirlos junta al archivo de guión de Python que los crea.

Note: It is possible to pack python code inside a FreeCAD file using json serializing with an App::PropertyPythonObject, but that code can never directly be run, and therefore has little use for our purpose here.

Las Funcionalidades Python siguen las mismas reglas que todas las Funcionalidades de FreeCAD: se separan en las partes de App y GUI. La parte de App, el objeto documento, define la geometría de nuestro objeto, mientras que su parte GUI, el objeto proveedor de vistas, define el modo en que el objeto se dibujará en la pantalla. El objeto proveedor de vistas, como cualquier otra Funcionalidad de FreeCAD, sólo está disponible cuando se ejecuta FreeCAD en su propio GUI. Hay varias propiedades y métodos disponibles para construir tu objeto. Las propiedades tienen que ser de cualquiera de los tipos predefinidos de propiedades que ofrece FreeCAD, y aparecerá en la ventana de vista de propiedades, por lo que puede ser editado por el usuario. De esta manera, los objetos Funcionalidad Python son total y absolutamente paramétricos. Puedes definir las propiedades del objeto y de su ViewObject por separado.

Ejemplo básico

El ejemplo siguiente se puede encontrar en el archivo src/Mod/TemplatePyMod/FeaturePython.py , junto con varios otros ejemplos:

Things to note

If your object relies on being recomputed as soon as it is created, you must do this manually in the __init__ function as it is not called automatically. This example does not require it because the onChanged method of the Box class has the same effect as the execute function, but the examples below rely on being recomputed before anything is displayed in the 3D view. In the examples, this is done manually with ActiveDocument.recompute() but in more complex scenarios you need to decide where to recompute either the whole document or the FeaturePython object.

This example produces a number of exception stack traces in the report view window. This is because the onChanged method of the Box class is called each time a property is added in __init__. When the first one is added, the Width and Height properties don't exist yet and so the attempt to access them fails.

An explanation of __getstate__ and __setstate__ is in the forum thread obj.Proxy.Type is a dict, not a string.

Available methods

See FeaturePython methods for the complete reference.

Propiedades disponibles

Las propiedades son las auténticas piedras de construcción de los objetos FeaturePython. A través de ellas, el usuario será capaz de interactuar y modificar su objeto. Después de crear un nuevo objeto FeaturePython en tu documento ( a=FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.addObject("App::FeaturePython","Box") ), puedes obtener una lista de las propiedades disponibles escribiendo:

obj.supportedProperties()

Obtendrás una lista de propiedades disponibles:

Cuando se añaden propiedades a tus objetos personalizados, ten en cuenta esto:

  • No utilices caracteres "<" o ">" en las descripciones de las propiedades (eso rompería las partes de xml en el archivo .fcstd)
  • Las propiedades se almacenan alfabéticamente en un archivo .fcstd. Si tienes una forma en tus propiedades, cualquier propiedad cuyo nombre va después de "Shape" en orden alfabético, se cargará DESPUÉS de la forma, lo que puede causar un comportamiento extraño.

A complete list of property attributes can be seen in the PropertyStandard C++ header file. For instance, if you want to allow the user to enter only a limited range of values (e.g. using PropertyIntegerConstraint), in Python you will assign a tuple containing not only the property value, but also the lower and upper limit as well as the stepsize, as below:

prop = (value, lower, upper, stepsize)

Property Type

By default the properties can be updated. It is possible to make the properties read-only, for instance in the case one wants to show the result of a method. It is also possible to hide the property. The property type can be set using

obj.setEditorMode("MyPropertyName", mode)

where mode is a short int that can be set to:

 0 -- default mode, read and write
 1 -- read-only
 2 -- hidden

The EditorModes are not set at FreeCAD file reload. This could to be done by the __setstate__ function. See http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=13460&start=10#p108072. By using the setEditorMode the properties are only read only in PropertyEditor. They could still be changed from python. To really make them read only the setting has to be passed directly inside the addProperty function. See http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=13460&start=20#p109709 for an example.

Using the direct setting in the addProperty function, you also have more possibilities. In particular, an interesting one is mark a property as an output property. This way FreeCAD won't mark the feature as touched when changing it (so no need to recompute).

Example of output property (see also https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?t=24928):

obj.addProperty("App::PropertyString","MyCustomProperty","","",8)

The property types that can be set at last parameter of the addProperty function are:

 0 -- Prop_None, No special property type
 1 -- Prop_ReadOnly, Property is read-only in the editor
 2 -- Prop_Transient, Property won't be saved to file
 4 -- Prop_Hidden, Property won't appear in the editor
 8 -- Prop_Output, Modified property doesn't touch its parent container
 16 -- Prop_NoRecompute, Modified property doesn't touch its container for recompute


You can find these different property types defined in the source code C++ header for PropertyContainer

Otro ejemplo más complejo

En este ejemplo se hace uso del Módulo de Pieza para crear un octaedro, a continuación, se crea su representación Coin con Pivy.

Lo primero es el propio objeto del documento:

import FreeCAD, FreeCADGui, Part
import pivy
from pivy import coin

class Octahedron:
  def __init__(self, obj):
     "Add some custom properties to our box feature"
     obj.addProperty("App::PropertyLength","Length","Octahedron","Length of the octahedron").Length=1.0
     obj.addProperty("App::PropertyLength","Width","Octahedron","Width of the octahedron").Width=1.0
     obj.addProperty("App::PropertyLength","Height","Octahedron", "Height of the octahedron").Height=1.0
     obj.addProperty("Part::PropertyPartShape","Shape","Octahedron", "Shape of the octahedron")
     obj.Proxy = self

  def execute(self, fp):
     # Define six vetices for the shape
     v1 = FreeCAD.Vector(0,0,0)
     v2 = FreeCAD.Vector(fp.Length,0,0)
     v3 = FreeCAD.Vector(0,fp.Width,0)
     v4 = FreeCAD.Vector(fp.Length,fp.Width,0)
     v5 = FreeCAD.Vector(fp.Length/2,fp.Width/2,fp.Height/2)
     v6 = FreeCAD.Vector(fp.Length/2,fp.Width/2,-fp.Height/2)
     
     # Make the wires/faces
     f1 = self.make_face(v1,v2,v5)
     f2 = self.make_face(v2,v4,v5)
     f3 = self.make_face(v4,v3,v5)
     f4 = self.make_face(v3,v1,v5)
     f5 = self.make_face(v2,v1,v6)
     f6 = self.make_face(v4,v2,v6)
     f7 = self.make_face(v3,v4,v6)
     f8 = self.make_face(v1,v3,v6)
     shell=Part.makeShell([f1,f2,f3,f4,f5,f6,f7,f8])
     solid=Part.makeSolid(shell)
     fp.Shape = solid

  # helper mehod to create the faces
  def make_face(self,v1,v2,v3):
     wire = Part.makePolygon([v1,v2,v3,v1])
     face = Part.Face(wire)
     return face

después, conseguimos el objeto proveedor de vista, responsable de mostrar el objeto en la escena 3D:

class ViewProviderOctahedron:
  def __init__(self, obj):
     "Set this object to the proxy object of the actual view provider"
     obj.addProperty("App::PropertyColor","Color","Octahedron","Color of the octahedron").Color=(1.0,0.0,0.0)

     style.style = coin.SoDrawStyle.LINES
     self.wireframe.addChild(style)
     self.wireframe.addChild(self.scale)

Por último, una vez que nuestro objeto y su viewobject están definidos, sólo nos falta invocarlos:

FreeCAD.newDocument()
a=FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.addObject("App::FeaturePython","Octahedron")
Octahedron(a)
ViewProviderOctahedron(a.ViewObject)

Haciendo objetos seleccionables

Si deseas hacer tu objeto seleccionable, o al menos parte de el, haciendo clic sobre el en el visor, debes incluir su geometría Coin dentro de un nodo SoFCSelection. Si el objeto tiene una representación compleja, con widgets, anotaciones, etc, puede que desees incluir sólo una parte de el en un SoFCSelection. Todo lo que es un SoFCSelection es constantemente explorado por FreeCAD para detectar selección/preselección, por lo que tiene sentido evitar sobrecargalo con innecesarias exploraciones. Esto es lo que se haría para incluir un self.face en el ejemplo anterior:

Once the parts of the scenegraph that are to be selectable are inside SoFCSelection nodes, you then need to provide two methods to handle the selection path. The selection path can take the form of a string giving the names of each element in the path, or of an array of scenegraph objects. The two methods you provide are getDetailPath, which converts from a string path to an array of scenegraph objects, and getElementPicked, which takes an element which has been clicked on in the scenegraph and returns its string name (note, not its string path).

Here is the molecule example above, adapted to make the elements of the molecule selectable:

class Molecule:
    def __init__(self, obj):
        ''' Add two point properties '''
        obj.addProperty("App::PropertyVector","p1","Line","Start point")

Trabajar con formas simples

Si tu objeto paramétrico saca simplemente una forma, no es necesario utilizar un objeto proveedor de vista. La forma se mostrará en la representación de formas de FreeCAD:

import FreeCAD as App
import FreeCADGui
import FreeCAD
import Part
class Line:
    def __init__(self, obj):
        '''"App two point properties" '''
        obj.addProperty("App::PropertyVector","p1","Line","Start point")
        obj.addProperty("App::PropertyVector","p2","Line","End point").p2=FreeCAD.Vector(1,0,0)
        obj.Proxy = self

    def execute(self, fp):
        '''"Print a short message when doing a recomputation, this method is mandatory" '''
        fp.Shape = Part.makeLine(fp.p1,fp.p2)

a=FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.addObject("Part::FeaturePython","Line")
Line(a)
a.ViewObject.Proxy=0 # just set it to something different from None (this assignment is needed to run an internal notification)
FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.recompute()

Scenegraph Structure

You may have noticed that the examples above construct their scenegraphs in slightly different ways. Some use obj.addDisplayMode(node, "modename") while others use obj.SwitchNode.getChild(x).addChild(y).

Each feature in a FreeCAD document is based the following scenegraph structure:

RootNode
 \- SwitchNode
     \- Shaded
      - Wireframe
      - etc

The SwitchNode displays only one of its children, depending on which display mode is selection in FreeCAD.

The examples which use addDisplayMode are constructing their scenegraphs solely out of coin3d scenegraph elements. Under the covers, addDisplayMode adds a new child to the SwitchNode; the name of that node will match the display mode it was passed.

The examples which use SwitchNode.getChild(x).addChild also construct part of their geometry using functions from the Part workbench, such as fp.Shape = Part.makeLine(fp.p1,fp.p2). This constructs the different display mode scenegraphs under the SwitchNode; when we later come to add coin3d elements to the scenegraph, we need to add them to the existing display mode scenegraphs using addChild rather than creating a new child of the SwitchNode.

When using addDisplayMode() to add geometry to the scenegraph, each display mode should have its own node which is passed to addDisplayMode(); don't reuse the same node for this. Doing so will confuse the selection mechanism. It's okay if each display mode's node has the same geometry nodes added below it, just the root of each display mode needs to be distinct.

Here is the above molecule example, adapted to be drawn only with Coin3D scenegraph objects instead of using objects from the Part workbench:
