This repository contains a code for QT for Python based application.

New installation mechanics (see: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28509965/setuptools-development-requirements):

pip install -e .[dev] .

In order to ease the development process, the Qt Creator project histoslider.pro is provided. You can open it to edit the UI files or to manage resources. Translations can be edited using Qt Linguist, part of the Qt SDK. In order to build the translations, you will need to have the lrelease command on your PATH or set its full path to the LRELEASE_BIN environment variable. UI files, translations and resources can be built like this:

python setup.py build_res

Note that this command is automatically run before running sdist and bdist_app commands.

You can generate a compiled application so that end-users do not need to install anything. You can tweak some settings on the histoslider.spec file. It can be generated like this:

python setup.py bdist_app

Flake8 is a great tool to check for style issues, unused imports and similar stuff. You can tweak .flake8 to ignore certain types of errors, increase the maximum line length, etc. You can run it like this:

flake8 app
