PyQt6 UI templates resource converter
Project description
pyqt6rc
This library is providing scripts to convert resource paths in files generated by pyuic6 command.
PyQt6 does not provide pyrcc6 script to convert resources, that's the purpose of this package.
In current PyQt6 implementation, py files created by pyuic6 script has wrong resource path.
Provided scripts are converting .ui files into .py files using three different ways:
- Native >= python3.7 solution using importlib [Use pyqt6rc].
- Use of importlib_resources, for compatibility with Python3.6+ [Use pyqt6rc with -c option]
- Adding resource search path using QtCore.QDir.addSearchPath() and modifying generated prefixes [Use pyqt6sp]
More on this topic can be found on StackOverflow.
From version 4.0, parameter -p, --package was removed. Pyqt6rc now determines package name automatically by crawling
parent folders and looking for \_\_init\_\_.py
file.
Conversion
Generated template using pyuic6 script:
icon = QtGui.QIcon()
icon.addPixmap(QtGui.QPixmap(":/icons/icon1.png"), QtGui.QIcon.Mode.Normal, QtGui.QIcon.State.Off)
Generated template using pyqt6rc script:
from importlib.resources import path
icon = QtGui.QIcon()
with path("myPackage.resources.icons", "icon1.png") as f_path:
icon.addPixmap(QtGui.QPixmap(str(f_path)), QtGui.QIcon.Mode.Normal, QtGui.QIcon.State.Off)
Generated template using pyqt6rc (-c, --compatible) script:
from importlib_resources import path
icon = QtGui.QIcon()
with path("myPackage.resources.icons", "icon1.png") as f_path:
icon.addPixmap(QtGui.QPixmap(str(f_path)), QtGui.QIcon.Mode.Normal, QtGui.QIcon.State.Off)
Generated template using pyqt6sp script:
import os
from os.path import dirname, normpath
from PyQt6.QtCore import QDir
prefix_resources = [('icons', '../resources/')]
for prefix, resource in prefix_resources:
sp = QDir.searchPaths(prefix)
QDir.setSearchPaths(prefix, set(sp + [normpath(os.path.join(dirname(__file__), resource))]))
icon = QtGui.QIcon()
icon.addPixmap(QtGui.QPixmap("icons:icon1.png"), QtGui.QIcon.Mode.Normal, QtGui.QIcon.State.Off)
Usage examples
Package structure example
myPackage
│ __init__.py
│
└───resources
| | __init__.py
│ │ image1.png
│ │ image2.png
│ │ resources.qrc
| | ...
| |
| └───icons
│ │ __init__.py
│ │ icon1.png
│ │ icon2.png
│ │ ...
│
└───templates
│ template1.ui
│ template2.ui
Batch convert all .ui files located in the templates directory
pyqt6rc /myPackage/templates
Convert template1.ui only
pyqt6rc /myPackage/templates/template1.ui
Convert template1.ui and save it in /tmp directory
pyqt6rc /myPackage/templates/template1.ui -o /tmp
Batch convert all .ui files located in templates directory using importlib_resources
pyqt6rc /myPackage/templates -c
Batch convert all .ui files located in templates directory using setSearchPaths method
pyqt6sp /myPackage/templates
