A Python native, OS native GUI toolkit.
- Toga requires Python 3. Python 2 is not supported.
- If you're on macOS, you need to be on 10.7 (Lion) or newer.
- If you're on Linux, you need to have GTK+ 3.10 or later. This is the version
that ships starting with Ubuntu 14.04 and Fedora 20. You also need to install
the Python 3 bindings and development files for GTK+.
- Ubuntu / Debian
sudo apt-get install python3-dev python3-gi python3-gi-cairo gir1.2-gtk-3.0 libgirepository1.0-dev libcairo2-dev - Fedora
sudo dnf install pygobject3 python3-gobject python3-cairo-devel cairo-gobject-devel gobject-introspection-develorsudo yum install pygobject3 python3-gobject python3-cairo-devel cairo-gobject-devel gobject-introspection-devel - Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S gobject-introspection
- Ubuntu / Debian
- We're working on Windows support, but not all features and widgets are supported. At a minimum, you'll need Python 3 and .NET Framework 4. This has been tested on Windows 10, but should work on 7 and 8. Pull requests, help and corrections are most welcome.
In Linux, extra packages are needed if you want to use the WebView widget:
- Ubuntu / Debian
sudo apt-get install gir1.2-webkit2-4.0Note: for Ubuntu 14.04 installgir1.2-webkit-3.0instead ofgir1.2-webkit-4.0 - Fedora
sudo dnf install pywebkitgtkorsudo yum install pywebkitgtk - Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S webkit2gtk
To get a demonstration of the capabilities of Toga, run the following:
$ pip install --pre toga-demo $ toga-demo
This will pop up a GUI window with some sample widgets.
Documentation for Toga can be found on Read The Docs.
