Manual Installation

Developers may need to run specific versions of this module which are not installed by FreeCAD's addons manager. There is a section in the installation documentation on manual installation. This can be used to run any version or branch of the module that is needed.

CadQuery Installation

When installing from outside the Addon manager, the CadQuery dependency will not be installed. To fix this, the following can be run from within FreeCAD's Python console.

import subprocess
import sys
subprocess.run(["python", "-m", "pip", "install", "--upgrade", "git+https://github.com/CadQuery/cadquery.git"], capture_output=True)

The master version of CadQuery must currently be used to avoid version conflicts with the embedded FreeCAD packages. If you are reading this after CadQuery's 2.5.0 release, the stable version can be installed.
