and for those who want to try it out:

there is a new release available on PyPI at

https://pypi.org/project/liboextensioncreator/

You could install it using 'pip3' and run it with Python 3 (recommend in
a virtual environment)

Regards,
Andreas

and sometimes it's easier to write a short notice on a mailing list
without the limitation to 128 chars and show interests. Such a short
response could solve such mail threads like this.

Because I missed such short and easy response I looked for another
solution and got one.

Apart from that, this is what happens in open source communities, some

Again, respect is a mutual thing, and I wish for it to be in our community.

that's nothing about the Easter break. If you look at the history of
this mailing list you may stumble on:

Because of this lack of response I invested some extra hours during my
vacations and worked on a build for the Python package index (PyPI). I
run into an error with this and got mor than one response on my request
within less than 24 hours (on Monday) and could fix the issue. The
response was also done by the Open Source Community.
The extension creator Python package is already available on PyPI for
this reason.

Andreas

why always this negativity? I find it quite frustrating - and knowing 
you personally for a decade and a half, it makes me sad too, because I 
know that you can also be a quite positive person with good enthusiastic 
ideas.


You sent your mail on April 2nd, Good Friday, which is a public holiday 
in some countries, followed by the Easter days, that many of us 
celebrate with their families and close beloved ones, especially during 
these times. People might simply be busy with catching up after the 
Easter break.


Can I ask you please to not always assume the negative reading of things 
when it comes to TDF? Despite the strong criticism you were raising 
towards us elsewhere, I was sharing your mail with the team earlier this 
week, because I found it quite interesting and asked people to have a 
look. But you need to give the community a bit of time to look into things.

it seemed there is no interest from TDF to host such a program which
supports the more easy creation of LibreOffice extensions. Thus I
created a Python package from the source code and published a first
version on the Python Package Index (PyPI):

https://pypi.org/project/liboextensioncreator/

Currently you need to manually install PyQt5 and validators with pip in
your Python (virtual) environment. The program to create the extensions
will be installed inside the site-packages subfolder. You need to run it
from there. The extension will be created inside this directory.

Regards,
Andreas
