I'm new to Python, so I thought as a first project I'd create a basic script
building wizard to help with my understanding of the flow, and for basic
practice. The following is a outline of what I would initially like to
accomplish.
I've begun creating small functions, and very lightly worded pseudocode, but
before I go further I'd like to make sure I'm building my script insertions
correctly, and see if any one has any suggestions on how to refine the process,
or what I might be able to use as additives to sub-levels of my insertions.
Here is a basic outline of the insertions from either raw_input or, drop down
menu:
append paths
import modules
from modules import*
import module as x
global variables
docs
version
class
class with docs
def
instance
comment to line x
This is the initial step-by step process which the script will create:
1)Ask for existing or new project
Would you like to open an existing project or create a new one?
1a)
if create new go to step 2
1b)
if open existing project go to step 3a
***************************************
2)Create new project or file
Would you like to created a new project, or a single file?
2a)
if create single file go to step 4
2b)
if create a project go to step 5
***************************************
3)Select the folder of your existing project
3a)
open project, which would be a folder, not a single file, go to step 6a
3b)
open single existing file go to step 6b
***************************************
4)Setup for single file creation
4a)
What would you like to name your new file?
raw_input
4b) would you like to use the script wizard to
setup your new file?
if yes go to script wizard(it's a choose your own adventure book)
if no
go to step 7a
**************************************
5)Set up for project creation
5a) Two fields to fill in
What would you like to name your new project?
raw_input
You must create a new file to go in your project folder.
What would you like to call your first file?
raw_input
got to step 7b
**************************************
**************************************
6)open project window, or single file, depending
on which of step 3 user is coming from, then
begins 'recording' the current sessions input, until save
or exit
projects will have multiple files, so history
for each file open within the project
6a)
Open window with selection sidepanel of all files in project folder
6b)
Window with single file, and now side panel
*****************************************
****************************************
7) New file has been created, or new project has been created with blank file
7a) open new window with file, but no open project folder
7b) open edit window with blank file and project folder contents, which
at this point consist of the single blank named file
******************************************
*******************************************
sequence of events above have terminated at the editor window with
open file
******************************************
******************************************
The above excludes insertions, saving, creating a file or project into the main
project window, which will probably call on some of the code from above.
If anyone is familiar with it, I'm thinking of using the blender game
engine(just to combine the learning process of both), but the overall code is
python, so I'm pretty sure I'm posting this to the right list.
Any suggestions, or critiques, are welcome.
Thanks,
David
