Conda forge is a community-driven effort to collect recipes for the conda package manager. The RoboDK API is not currently available through any public conda channels. With conda, packages and their dependencies can be easily accessed and managed. For python packages, grayskull may be used and the process of a building a recipe for conda is actually fairly straightforward (see https://conda-forge.org/docs/maintainer/adding_pkgs/).

Making the RoboDK API available on conda-forge would add value for users who wish to integrate tools that call the RoboDK API into larger applications.

(I am thinking of the Python API as the easiest starting point, with automatic recipe creation through grayskull. However, environments for the other API's can also be distributed through conda.)

As of now, the recommended method to use RoboDK's Python API through conda is:

Code:

conda config --set pip_interop_enabled True
pip install robodk

I understand this might not be compatible with conda forge and other recipe builders.

For reference, the PyPI deployment scripts of the RoboDK Python API are available here:
