1.2.3

New mechanism for warning about members that are missing and supposed to be missing, currently only QtGui.QMatrix.

If you discover or know about a member that isn't in Qt.py and shouldn't be, you can add a it to _missing_members.

_missing_members = {
    "QtGui": {
        "QMatrix": "Deprecated in PyQt5",
        "YOUR MEMBER": "Message to display whenever anyone tries to access it"
    },
}

1.2.2

Cosmetic change only.

Support for Rez's version resolution algorithm, which puts pre-releases ahead of stable releases.

• See AcademySoftwareFoundation/rez#653

1.2.0

Added:

• QtCompat.dataChanged
• QtCompat.isValid

Merged:

• #306
• #285

1.2.0.b3

Workaround to pyside-77 bug.

See #306 for details. Thanks to @aoblet for this fix!

1.2.0.b2

Internal changes to facilitate the QtPyConvert project, should not affect the end-user.

1.1.0

Improved detection of common members

The ability to automatically generate the common members, used by Qt.py, makes it much easier to spot new additions to e.g. PySide2. Run build_membership.sh to generate a JSON file per binding, which are then compared. The result is written to a common_members.json and can be copy-pasted into Qt.py. This comparison leverages the tests suite and uses the binding versions used in the latest test suite.

Once the binding versions used by the tests suite gets updated (usually annually during a VFX Platform update), we will check for new members, using this new approach.

See DOCKER.md for more info.

Removed QtCore.QMetaType member

The QtCore.QMetaType member was removed as it was wrongly added to Qt.py.

New tests suite

A new tests suite was added. Qt and its bindings are compiled from source using the CY2018 VFX Platform standards. This adds better support for testing with Python 3.x and removes the dependency of the Ubuntu PPAs previously used to install the Qt bindings.

cd Qt.py

# Run nosetests (Linux/OSX)
docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/Qt.py -e PYTHON=2.7 fredrikaverpil/qt.py:2018
docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/Qt.py -e PYTHON=3.4 fredrikaverpil/qt.py:2018
docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/Qt.py -e PYTHON=3.5 fredrikaverpil/qt.py:2018
docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/Qt.py -e PYTHON=3.6 fredrikaverpil/qt.py:2018

# Run nosetests (Windows)
docker run --rm -v %CD%:/Qt.py -e PYTHON=2.7 fredrikaverpil/qt.py:2018
docker run --rm -v %CD%:/Qt.py -e PYTHON=3.4 fredrikaverpil/qt.py:2018
docker run --rm -v %CD%:/Qt.py -e PYTHON=3.5 fredrikaverpil/qt.py:2018
docker run --rm -v %CD%:/Qt.py -e PYTHON=3.6 fredrikaverpil/qt.py:2018

The test suite will be updated anually, around the time of SIGGRAPH and when the VFX Platform usually gets updated.

For more information on running the tests, see README.md and DOCKER.md.

Support for Python 2.6

Qt.py now works with Python 2.6, thanks to contributions made by @Ahuge (see #245). However, keep in mind that the automatic tests don't apply to Python 2.6.

Upgraded QtCompat

An additional layer was added to QtCompat to facilitate more members.

Before

from Qt import QtCompat
QtCompat.setSectionResizeMode

After

from Qt import QtCompat
QtCompat.QHeaderView.setSectionResizeMode

Backwards compatibility is maintained, at least till the next major version release.

Pre-release installation

Install

To install a pre-release, prepend --pre to your pip install.

$ pip install --pre -U Qt.py

To upgrade an existing install, prepend -U as well.

$ pip install --pre Qt.py

QtSiteConfig

Version 1.1.0.b3 added support for overriding available members of Qt.py on import, to either add custom members and modules, or remove them.

• Documentation

Added wrapInstance and getCppPointer

The shiboken of PySide and sip of PyQt have found a home in QtCompat.

from Qt import QtCompat
QtCompat.wrapInstance(...)

They work similar as you would expect. See the release notes for 1.1.0.b1 for details and examples.

1.1.0.b10

Adds support for from Qt.QtCompat import X.

See #265 for details.

1.1.0.b9

Improvements to QtCompat.loadUi().

• See #217 for details.

1.1.0.b8

Here are the changes coming from #234:

A new tests suite was added. Qt and its bindings are compiled from source using the CY2018 VFX Platform standards. This adds better support for testing with Python 3.x and removes the dependency of the Ubuntu PPAs previously used to install the Qt bindings.

• The common members dictionary is now based on a proper comparison. As a result, new members were found to be common. Run build_membership.py to generate JSON files which gets compared and in finally generates common_bindings.json which serves as a base for the common_members dictionary in Qt.py.
• DOCKER.md README.md were updated with instructions and details on testing.
• QtCompat.wrapInstance caveats test is skipped with PySide2 due to this having been addressed by QtC.
