## Introduction <a name="introduction" />
A Python GUI for [PATO](https://github.com/paulissoft/oracle-tools) as an alternative for the Maven command line.
First you probably need to clone PATO so you use its Maven POM files or other Maven POM files having them as parent.
This GUI would not have been possible without [Gooey](https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey).
## Installation <a name="installation" />
This utility needs Python 3. In order to support several Python versions and/or (virtual) environments on your computer, I prefer [Mamba from the Miniforge project on GitHub](https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge). See the installation instructions there if you want to use that distribution. Mamba is an environment manager similar to Conda variants like Anaconda and [Miniconda](https://docs.conda.io/projects/miniconda/en/latest/miniconda-install.html) but much faster. Together with [Poetry](https://python-poetry.org/docs/) this is a good combination to distribute libraries to PyPi.
### Start a command prompt <a name="start-command-line-prompt" />
Needed for installing and running the PATO GUI. Please Google it if you don't know how to start a command prompt.
First please note that the dollar sign you will see below is the command line prompt sign and not a character you have to type.
The command line prompt will differ between Operating Systems.
### Installing from PyPi <a name="installing-from-pypi" />
First set up a virtual environment using your preferred method:
Using Mamba (see above) you can create (and activate) such an environment via:
```
$ mamba create --name <environment> python
$ mamba activate <environment>
```
Now continue with:
```
$ python3 -m pip install pato-gui
```
Now `pato-gui` should be available and this command shows you the help:
```
$ pato-gui -h
```
You can also build an executable:
```
$ cd <temporary directory>
$ pato-gui-build
```
In the `dist/PatoGui` folder you will find the `PatoGui` executable.
Of course you can put the executable in `dist/PatoGui` somewhere in your path.
### Installing from source <a name="installing-from-source" />
Clone the Git repo [pato-gui](https://github.com/paulissoft/pato-gui) first.
Go to the root folder and issue this command for more help:
```
$ make help
```
To run from the start:
```
$ make env-create
$ mambo activate pato-gui
$ make test
$ make run
```
## Usage <a name="usage" />
### Launch the GUI <a name="launch-the-gui" />
I assume that you have built the executable.
Launch it via:
```
$ <path to PatoGui>/PatoGui
```
A graphical interface will pop up.
If you know the Maven POM file already:
```
$ <path to PatoGui>/PatoGui <POM file>
```
### Help <a name="help" />
From the command line:
```
$ <path to PatoGui>/PatoGui -h
```
And in the left top corner of the GUI screen there is a Help button.
## Links <a name="links" />
These links have been helpful to convert a setuptools based project to Poetry and Mamba.
