Github Build Status PyPI Version Supported Python Versions

A setuptools plugin for converting Qt .ui and .qrc files to Python files with Qt.py.

Installation

setuptools-qt.py can be installed through pip:

pip install setuptools-qt.py

Usage

Add setuptools-qt.py to the requires list in your project’s pyproject.toml file.

[build-system]
requires = ["setuptools>=44.1", "setuptools-qt.py"]
build-backend = "setuptools.build_meta"

The plugin will automatically find and compile .ui and .qrc file in your packages’ directories. Compiled files are output with the same name as the source .ui or .qrc file, with the file extension replaced with a suffix of _ui.py and _rc.py respectively.

myrepo
└── src
    └── mypackage
        ├── myui.ui
        ├── myui_ui.py
        ├── myresources.ui
        ├── myresources_rc.py
        └── __init__.py

The output filename can be configured in the pyproject.toml file.

[tool."setuptools-qt.py"]
filename-ui = "{stem}.py"
filename-qrc = "{stem}.py"
