eqt: Qt Elements

Templates & tools to develop Qt GUIs in Python.

Some example classes are

1. UIFormWidget: a class to help creating Qt forms programmatically, useable in QDockWidgets and QWidget
2. FormDialog: a QDialog with a form inside with OK and Cancel buttons
3. Worker: a class that defines a QRunnable to handle worker thread setup, signals and wrap up

One use case is accepting a user input while running another task asynchronously (so that the UI is still responsive).

Installation

Via pip/conda/mamba, i.e. any of the following:

• python -m pip install eqt
• conda install -c conda-forge eqt
• mamba install -c conda-forge eqt

Note:

eqt uses the qtpy abstraction layer for Qt bindings, meaning that it works with either PySide or PyQt bindings. Thus, the package does not depend on either. If the environment does not already have a Qt binding then the user must install either pyside2 or pyqt5.

Examples

See the examples directory, e.g. how to launch a QDialog with a form inside using eqt's QWidget or FormDialog.
