steps previous debugged ending with issue

All Code is available

1. Add Dockerfile:

2. Add the docker-compose.yaml

3. Build the Docker Image

   docker-compose build

4. Run the image using docker-compose

   docker-compose up -d

5. Open Browser to localhost:3000

  App works great

6. Open the boxtest.py within the FreeCad Gui

   File>Open>/app/py_scripts>boxtest.py (Defined in docker compose)

7. Run the Code in the FreeCad Gui

8. Box object is made

  And auto exported/downloaded as a box.step file in /py_scripts

  Python works Great!

  (If Needed) shutdown container - docker compose down

ISSUE THE CLI doesn't WORK

9. Delete the box.step file so we know if the python script was ran again.

10. Docker Exec into the running container

docker exec -it freecad bash

11. cd into the py_scripts directory

12. Open the freecadcmd cli to make sure it works

  This is due to Python environment variables…

Purpose of the issue:

The Purpose of doing it from the command line is to automate the creation of the object defined by parameters/database so a backend can parametrically make parts. The gui will only be used for testing.
