jelly is a wxPython based application framework.

The core of jelly is based around a duck-typing infused plugin system, which enables the whole jelly application to be loosely coupled. An event system provides a common communication interface for the different application-parts.

• logger.py: Jelly utilities the python logging facility. Every module assumes that a properly configured hierarchical logger is present. This module provides a function to create such a logger without the need to know anything about the python logging facility.
• plugin.py: Plugin System
• event.py: Event System
• gui.py: Application Core Factory
• menu.py: Menu Factory
• view.py: View Factory
• baseobjs.py: Utility module with basic objects
• structure.py: Utility module for simple struct-like object
• shortcut.py: Mixin to provide shortcut access

This is a rundown of the included "example.py" file.

The first thing do, is to initialize the logger.

from logger import configureLogger
configureLogger()

Since jelly is based on wxPython, you should import wx.

import wx

Import the needed parts of Jelly.

from gui import InterfaceBuilder
from view import ViewBuilder

Create a new application by inheriting from the InterfaceBuilder.

class JellySampleApp(InterfaceBuilder):

	def showGui(self):
		self.prepare(title="Jelly Example Application", size=(400,150))
		self.show()

Create views, in this case a simple TextCtrl with a button, that show the text as an information-dialog if the button is clicked.

class JellySampleView(ViewBuilder):
	
	def createView(self, parent):
		panel = wx.Panel(parent)
		sizer = wx.BoxSizer()
		
		self.label  = wx.StaticText(panel, label="Input:")
		self.edit   = wx.TextCtrl(panel)
		self.button = wx.Button(panel, label="Click")
		
		sizer.Add(self.label, 0)
		sizer.Add(self.edit, 1)
		sizer.Add(self.button, 0)
		
		self.button.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnClick)
		
		panel.SetSizer(sizer)
		return panel
		
	def OnClick(self, event):
		self.coreRef.displayInformation(self.edit.GetValue())
		self.edit.SetValue("")

Load your application and show the GUI.

if __name__ == "__main__":
	sample = JellySampleApp()
	sample.showGui()

All done!
