qt5reactor 0.5

Twisted Qt Integration

Qt5Reactor

Using the QtReactor

Install using pip

pip install qt5reactor

Before running / importing any other Twisted code, invoke:

app = QApplication(sys.argv) # your code to init QtCore
from twisted.application import reactors
reactors.installReactor('qt5')

or

app = QApplication(sys.argv) # your code to init QtCore
import qt5reactor
qt5reactor.install()

Testing

trial --reactor=qt5 [twisted] [twisted.test] [twisted.test.test_internet]

Make sure the plugin directory is in path or in the current directory for reactor discovery to work.

Testing on Python 3

trial does not work on Python3 yet. Use Twisted’s Python 3 test runner instead.

Install the reactor before calling unittest.main().

import qt5reactor
qt5reactor.install()
unittest.main(...)
