Compas in rhino8

Hi,
interested to know how if I can run compas geometry in rhino8beta?
I tried to run a simple Mesh.from_points script in the rhino8 grasshopper script editor and I get an error while importing MeshArtist. (image below: left rhino8 beta right rhino7)

is this because the artist wrapper is for ironpython?

hi,

yes indeed. currently, compas_rhino and compas_ghpython only take the IronPython-based script interpreter into account. we are looking into supporting both use cases.

will keep you posted…

btw, currently the following combinations work smoothly:

  • R8 ScriptEditor CPython + Scene
  • R8 ScriptEditor IronPython + Scene
  • R8 GH IronPython component + Scene
  • R8 GH CPython component + geometry conversions (using the scene doesn’t work here, yet)

how are you able to run it in ScriptEditor without adding the package requirements on top? like below, is there a better way to make rhino import compas?

#r: compas

Hello @tomvanmele

After following the instructions to install compas on rhino 8 here, compas grasshopper components are still not showing up. Do I need to

python -m compas_rhino.install

to have the grasshopper components in rhino 8?
