Paragon is a toolkit for editing and creating editors for FE13, FE14, and FE15.
Installation
Paragon releases should require no dependencies. Download the release for your operating system and run.
Building
Paragon requires Rust and Python 3.8.x. You will also need to install the python packages listed in requirements.txt. More on this below. If you want to build a standalone executable, you should also install PyInstaller.
- Install the virtualenv package for Python. This is used to create an environment for building.
- If you have not already done so, create a virtual environment for the project by running
virtualenv venvin the root directory of the project. This should produce a folder named "venv". - Enter the virtual environment by running the appropriate command for your operating system. In Windows Powershell, for example, the command is "./venv/Scripts/activate.ps1".
- Install the required python packages. You can do this conveniently by running
pip install -r requirements.txtfrom the root directory of the project. - To build the Rust backend, run
maturin develop --releasefrom the root directory of the project. This will produce a "target" folder and a "pyd" file in the paragon folder. - If the install succeeds, you can run the main script with the command
python paragon/ui/main.py.
Tools Using Paragon
The following tools use Paragon features like import/export to edit FE13, FE14, and FE15. Take a look at the if you're interested!
