ImportError for connection_ui

[FranzEricSchneider]

Hi, I'm trying to get a reliable installation for this up and running, but I'm having difficulties. Since I've been having issues with setting up workable conda environments on my local machine (https://github.com/fredboudon/plantscan3d/issues/18) I'm trying instead from the continuumio/miniconda3 docker image, which is just a basic docker image with conda available.

Installation from that point is just

conda create -n pgl openalea.plantgl -c fredboudon -c conda-forge
conda activate pgl
conda install pyqglviewer -c fredboudon -c conda-forge
conda install openalea.mtg -c fredboudon -c conda-forge
apt-get update && apt-get install libgl1-mesa-glx ffmpeg libsm6 libxext6 -y
pip install pymongo
git clone https://github.com/fredboudon/plantscan3d.git
cd plantscan3d/
python3 setup.py install
plantscan3d

Unfortunately, it's breaking with the following error:

(pgl) root@b22becb2e2a5:/plantscan3d# plantscan3d

So I had similar issues, and this example above had partly to do with pymongo, which is doing somethings. So I added the pymongo with conda before adding the pyglviewer, and I used the python3 setup install. See my installation insctructions below.
Check if the export for the MTG works, because I also managed to install it with python3.7 but then the MTG export does not work... good luck

conda create --name openalea39 python=3.9
conda activate openalea39
conda install openalea.plantgl -c fredboudon -c conda-forge
conda install -c openalea3 -c conda-forge openalea.mtg
conda install pymongo
conda install pyqglviewer -c fredboudon -c conda-forge
## git clone https://github.com/fredboudon/plantscan3d, use python3 setup.py install!!
python3 setup.py install
plantscan3d
