Installation

You can install the library using pip:

pip install pysfsymbols

Usage[^1]

This library was designed to be used in combination with Qt for Python, specifically tested with PySide6.

Due to how the Unicode Private Use Area (PUA) works, this library can only work if the application is set to use an Apple San Francisco Font, e.g.:

app = QApplication()

font_id = QFontDatabase.addApplicationFont(":/resources/fonts/sf_pro_rounded/SF-Pro-Rounded-Regular.otf"),
font_family = QFontDatabase.applicationFontFamilies(font_id)[0]

font = QFont(font_family, 12, QFont.Weight.Normal)

app.setFont(font)
app.exec()

To use an SF Symbol within a QPushButton:

import pysfsymbols

button = QPushButton(sf_symbols.fetch_symbol('symbol.name'))
