# get bpy python working by: ```bash $HOME/git/tools/blender_git/build_linux_v4.1/bin/4.1/python/bin/python3.11 -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate pip install bpy ``` to install mathutils, this was necessary for me: ``` sudo xbps-install -Sy python3.11-devel CFLAGS=$(python3.11-config --cflags) LDFLAGS=$(python3.11-config --ldflags) pip install mathutils ``` # install addon: ```bash cd ln -s $(pwd) $HOME/git/tools/blender_git/build_linux_v4.1/bin/4.1/scripts/addons/abc3d ``` # get blender addon path: ```python bpy.utils.script_paths() ``` then check it for the `addons` directory # addons dir: ``` ~/git/tools/blender_git/build_linux_v4.1/bin/4.1/scripts/addons/ ``` # addon data: ``` ~/.config/blender/4.1/datafiles ``` # reload addon in blender: F3 -> "reload scripts"
