What is Taipy GUI

Taipy is a Python library for creating Business Applications. More information on our website. Taipy is split into multiple packages including taipy-gui to let users install the minimum they need.

Taipy GUI provides Python classes that make it easy to create powerful web apps in minutes.

Installation

There are different ways to install Taipy GUI, depending on how you plan to use it:

Taipy GUI needs your system to have Python 3.9 or above installed.

Installing the latest release

The easiest way to install Taipy GUI is using pip

Run the command:

pip install taipy-gui

Installing the development version

The development version of Taipy GUI is updated daily with changes from the Taipy R&D and external contributors that we praise for their input.

You should also install this version if you want to contribute to the development of Taipy GUI. Here are the steps to follow:

1 - Clone the Taipy repository

Clone the Taipy repository using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/Avaiga/taipy.git

This creates the 'taipy' directory holding all the package's source code, and the 'taipy-gui' source code is in the 'taipy/gui' directory.

2 - Install Node.js

Taipy GUI has some code dealing with the client side of the web applications. This code is written in TypeScript, relies on React components, and is packaged into a JavaScript bundle that is sent to browsers when they connect to all Taipy GUI applications.

This bundle needs to be built before being usable by Taipy GUI.

First you need to install Node.js on your system.

Select the "Recommended For Most Users" version, and follow the instructions for your system.

Select "Automatically install the necessary tools" when asked.

3 - Build the JavaScript bundle

Open a new terminal and run the following commands:

  • Install the DOM dependencies
cd gui
cd dom
npm i
  • Install the web app dependencies
cd ..
npm i
  • Build the web app
npm run build

After a few minutes, this creates the directory taipy/gui/webapp in the root directory of the repository where the front-end code for Taipy GUI is split into a set of JavaScript bundles.

4 - Install the package as editable

In a terminal, at the root of the repository, run:

pip install -e . --user

This should install the dev version of Taipy GUI as editable. You are now ready to use it.
