Executing from blender REPL (DEBIAN)

[taiya]

Figure out where blender python is:

sudo apt-get install blender
blender --background --python-expr "import sys; print(f'REPL: {sys.path}')"
blender --background --python-expr "import sys; print(f'REPL: {sys.executable}')"
alias bython3="/path/to/bin/python" #< adjust according to above

Install system level requirements:

 sudo apt-get install libpython3.8-dev #< needed by mathutils and pybullet
 sudo apt-get install libopenexr25 libopenexr-dev #< neeeded by openexr

Install the requirements inside the blender REPL

bython3 -m ensurepip
bython3 -m pip install --upgrade pip wheel
bython3 -m pip install --upgrade --global-option=build_ext --global-option="-I/usr/include/python3.7m" mathutils bullet
bython3 -m pip install --upgrade -r requirements.txt
bython3 -m pip install -e . 

Test the module loads w/o problems (mostly pybullet and openexr being the issue)

bython3 -c "import kubric"
