Help with Python import

[adelka-m]

Hi,
first of all, thank you for the library.

I would like to ask for help, as I have troubles with importing the library into python.
I think I installed everything correctly:

• "vtkbool is configured as a library:" the so file is here: /xxx/vtkboolbuild/build/lib/python3.10/site-packages/vtkbool/vtkBool.so
• "Python 3 is installed with header files:" /usr/include/python3.10/Python.h
• "VTK itself is wrapped to Python:" import vtk works

But if I run

import sys
sys.path.append('/xxx/vtkboolbuild/build/')
from vtkBool import vtkPolyDataBooleanFilter

gives ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'vtkBool'

Where did it go wrong?

Thank you!

I think it must be something like:

sys.path.extend(['/xxx/vtkboolbuild/build/lib/python3.10/site-packages/vtkbool'])

Thanks for the swift answer. I have changed the code to the following and it runs:

import sys
sys.path.append('/xxx/vtkboolbuild/build/lib/python3.10/site-packages/vtkbool')
sys.path.append('/opt/VTK-9.3.0/build/lib/python3.10/site-packages/')

You also have to uninstall the pip vtk module from you environment and use the build vtk on your system. Otherwise it gave me error like here #61.

(Maybe is usefull for future users.)
