I am trying to create something like this (autocomplete places) in pyqt5 QLineEdit.
There is a class called QCompleter with which i can suggest the content, but it requires an already formed list, but this google places api is a suggestion based function, how can i send each keystroke to google api and get the suggestion back and load in Qtextedit, is there a better way to do it
For this case you can create a custom model that makes a request using Place Autocomplete, and set that model to a QCompleter:
import json
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets, QtNetwork
API_KEY = "<API_KEY>"
class SuggestionPlaceModel(QtGui.QStandardItemModel):
finished = QtCore.pyqtSignal()
error = QtCore.pyqtSignal(str)
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(SuggestionPlaceModel, self).__init__(parent)
self._manager = QtNetwork.QNetworkAccessManager(self)
self._reply = None
#QtCore.pyqtSlot(str)
def search(self, text):
self.clear()
if self._reply is not None:
self._reply.abort()
if text:
r = self.create_request(text)
self._reply = self._manager.get(r)
self._reply.finished.connect(self.on_finished)
loop = QtCore.QEventLoop()
self.finished.connect(loop.quit)
loop.exec_()
def create_request(self, text):
url = QtCore.QUrl("https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/autocomplete/json")
query = QtCore.QUrlQuery()
query.addQueryItem("key", API_KEY)
query.addQueryItem("input", text)
query.addQueryItem("types", "geocode")
query.addQueryItem("language", "en")
url.setQuery(query)
request = QtNetwork.QNetworkRequest(url)
return request
#QtCore.pyqtSlot()
def on_finished(self):
reply = self.sender()
if reply.error() == QtNetwork.QNetworkReply.NoError:
data = json.loads(reply.readAll().data())
if data['status'] == 'OK':
for prediction in data['predictions']:
self.appendRow(QtGui.QStandardItem(prediction['description']))
self.error.emit(data['status'])
self.finished.emit()
reply.deleteLater()
self._reply = None
class Completer(QtWidgets.QCompleter):
def splitPath(self, path):
self.model().search(path)
return super(Completer, self).splitPath(path)
class Widget(QtWidgets.QWidget):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(Widget, self).__init__(parent)
self._model = SuggestionPlaceModel(self)
completer = Completer(self, caseSensitivity=QtCore.Qt.CaseInsensitive)
completer.setModel(self._model)
lineedit = QtWidgets.QLineEdit()
lineedit.setCompleter(completer)
label = QtWidgets.QLabel()
self._model.error.connect(label.setText)
lay = QtWidgets.QFormLayout(self)
lay.addRow("Location: ", lineedit)
lay.addRow("Error: ", label)
if __name__ == '__main__':
import sys
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
w = Widget()
w.resize(400, w.sizeHint().height())
w.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
I faced the same issue, at first I tried #eyllanasec's answer. But for some reason, the performance is not so good (often stuck or hang) in the platform that I use (I was creating a plugin for Qt-based software using PyQt). It is running fine independently though, so perhaps it's specific to my platform.
In the end, I found a Qt example project for a similar case, Google Suggest. You can find it https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtnetwork-googlesuggest-example.html. It creates a custom class to handle the search and the pop-up window (using QTreeWidget).
Since the example is in Qt, I port it to PyQt with small modification https://github.com/ismailsunni/scripts/blob/master/autocomplete_from_url.py

I am a beginner with PyQt5 and I am having trouble to use QtCore.signal
I'd like to send a signal when I press my buttons and switch the current widget displayed.
I don't have any errors when I run my code but when I press the buttons nothing happen and I guess it is because I am doing something wrong with the QtCore.Signal
Here is my code :
from PySide2 import QtCore, QtWidgets
from ui_Page_accueil import Ui_MainWindow
from ui_NouvelleVerif import Ui_Dialog as Ui_NouvelleVerif
from ui_NouvelleVerifEssieux import Ui_Dialog as Ui_NouvelleVerifEssieux
import sys
class MainWindowUi(Ui_MainWindow):
to_NouvelleVerif = QtCore.Signal()
def __init__(self):
QtWidgets.QMainWindow.__init__(self)
self.setupUi(self)
#self.pushButton.clicked.connect(self.pushbutton_handler1)
self.pushButton_2.clicked.connect(self.pushbutton_handler2)
#def pushbutton_handler1(self):
# self.to_MainWindow.emit()
def pushbutton_handler2(self):
self.to_NouvelleVerif.emit()
class NouvelleVerifUi(QtWidgets.QWidget, Ui_NouvelleVerif):
to_MainWindow = QtCore.Signal()
to_NouvelleVerifEssieux = QtCore.Signal()
def __init__(self):
QtWidgets.QWidget.__init__(self)
self.setupUi(self)
self.pushButton.clicked.connect(self.pushbutton_handler1)
#self.pushButton_2.clicked.connect(self.pushbutton_handler2)
self.pushButton_3.clicked.connect(self.pushbutton_handler3)
def pushbutton_handler1(self):
self.to_MainWindow.emit()
#def pushbutton_handler2(self):
# self.switch_window.emit()

QtWidgets.QWidget.__init__(self)
self.setupUi(self)
self.pushButton.clicked.connect(self.pushbutton_handler1)
def pushbutton_handler1(self):
self.to_NouvelleVerif.emit()
class Controller :
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
widget = QtWidgets.QStackedWidget()
MainWindow = MainWindowUi()
NouvelleVerif = NouvelleVerifUi()
NouvelleVerifEssieux = NouvelleVerifEssieuxUi()
def __init__(self):
self.widget.addWidget(self.MainWindow) # create an instance of the first page class and add it to stackedwidget
self.widget.addWidget(self.NouvelleVerif) # adding second page
self.widget.addWidget(self.NouvelleVerifEssieux)
self.widget.setCurrentWidget(self.MainWindow) # setting the page that you want to load when application starts up. you can also use setCurrentIndex(int)
def show_MainWindow(self):
self.NouvelleVerif = NouvelleVerifUi()
self.NouvelleVerif.to_MainWindow.connect(self.show_MainWindow)
self.widget.setCurrentWidget(self.MainWindow)
def show_NouvelleVerif(self):
self.MainWindow = MainWindowUi()
self.NouvelleVerifEssieux = NouvelleVerifEssieuxUi()
self.MainWindow.to_NouvelleVerif.connect(self.show_NouvelleVerif)
self.NouvelleVerifEssieux.to_NouvelleVerif.connect(self.show_NouvelleVerif)
self.widget.setCurrentWidget(self.NouvelleVerif)
def show_NouvelleVerifEssieux(self):
self.NouvelleVerif = NouvelleVerifUi()
self.NouvelleVerif.to_NouvelleVerifEssieux.connect(self.show_NouvelleVerifEssieux)
self.widget.setCurrentWidget(self.NouvelleVerifEssieux)
def main():
controller = Controller()
controller.widget.show()
sys.exit(controller.app.exec_())
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
#musicamante I don't know why I though the QtCore.Signal could be call even if he was in a function which has not been called. I did what you said and I realise I made another mistake with the widgets.
In the controller class they are create and add to the QStackedWidget in the __init__, but I was creating new ones and trying to set them as CurrentWidget without adding them to the QStackedWidget.
#alexpdev I wanted to navigate through my three differents with pushButton UI this way :
Start with MainWindowUI
MainWindowUI pushButton_2.clicked --> set the current widget display to NouvelleVerifUI
NouvelleVerifUI pushButton_1.clicked --> set the current widget display back to MainWindowUI
NouvelleVerifUI pushButton_3.clicked --> set the current widget display to NouvelleVerifEssieuxUI
NouvelleVerifEssieuxUI pushButton_1.clicked --> set the current widget display back to NouvelleVerifUI
Now everything work I did what you said #musicamante and I also use the UI created at first.
class Controller :
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
widget = QtWidgets.QStackedWidget()
MainWindow = MainWindowUi()
NouvelleVerif = NouvelleVerifUi()
NouvelleVerifEssieux = NouvelleVerifEssieuxUi()
def __init__(self):
self.widget.addWidget(self.MainWindow) # create an instance of the first page class and add it to stackedwidget
self.widget.addWidget(self.NouvelleVerif) # adding second page
self.widget.addWidget(self.NouvelleVerifEssieux)
self.widget.setCurrentWidget(self.MainWindow) # setting the page that you want to load when application starts up. you can also use setCurrentIndex(int)
self.NouvelleVerif.to_MainWindow.connect(self.show_MainWindow)
self.MainWindow.to_NouvelleVerif.connect(self.show_NouvelleVerif)
self.NouvelleVerifEssieux.to_NouvelleVerif.connect(self.show_NouvelleVerif)
self.NouvelleVerif.to_NouvelleVerifEssieux.connect(self.show_NouvelleVerifEssieux)
def show_MainWindow(self):
self.widget.setCurrentWidget(self.MainWindow)
def show_NouvelleVerif(self):
self.widget.setCurrentWidget(self.NouvelleVerif)
def show_NouvelleVerifEssieux(self):
self.widget.setCurrentWidget(self.NouvelleVerifEssieux)
Thank you all for your time
I made a widget for loading lots of images in a deferred fashion by using threads. When using Python 2 (with PySide), the scrolling is super smooth with all the threads running. On Python 3 (with PySide2), it freezes every time you attempt to scroll.
I narrowed it down to the QtGui.QImage call within the thread.
class ImageLoader(QtCore.QRunnable):
def __init__(self, item):
self.item = item
super(ImageLoader, self).__init__()
def run(self):
QtGui.QImage(self.item.path)
Does anyone know why it would only be causing issues on newer versions of Qt, and perhaps how I can fix the issue?
Here's the full script, trimmed down as much as I was able to:
PATH_TO_LARGE_FILE = 'C:/large_image.png' # Pick something >1MB to really show the slowness
import sys
from Qt import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets
class GridView(QtWidgets.QListView):
def __init__(self):
super(GridView, self).__init__()
self.setViewMode(QtWidgets.QListView.IconMode)
self.setModel(GridModel())
class GridModel(QtGui.QStandardItemModel):
def __init__(self):
super(GridModel, self).__init__()
self.threadPool = QtCore.QThreadPool()
def data(self, index, role=QtCore.Qt.UserRole):
# Load image
if role == QtCore.Qt.DecorationRole:
item = self.itemFromIndex(index)
worker = ImageLoader(item)
self.threadPool.start(worker)
return None
# Set size of icons
elif role == QtCore.Qt.SizeHintRole:
return QtCore.QSize(64, 89)
return super(GridModel, self).data(index, role)
class ImageLoader(QtCore.QRunnable):
def __init__(self, item):
self.item = item
super(ImageLoader, self).__init__()
def run(self):
QtGui.QImage(self.item.path)
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
widget = GridView()
for i in range(1000):
item = QtGui.QStandardItem('test {}'.format(i))
item.path = PATH_TO_LARGE_FILE
widget.model().appendRow(item)
widget.show()
app.setActiveWindow(widget)
app.exec_()

I am trying to display console output of a python script in a QplainTextEdit widget in PyQt5.
I am getting this error:
TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases
metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases

How can I make this work correctly?
Update 2
I indeed DID do research into the topic and this is one of the main resources I used to try to solve the issue before I posted my question: How to capture output of Python's interpreter and show in a Text widget?
Update 3
I have revised my code in the post to reflect code suggestions in the link I used to help me with my issue.
I am still unable to get this to run correctly. I now get this error:
self.plainTextEdit.appendPlainText(text_edit) TypeError:
appendPlainText(self, str): argument 1 has unexpected type
'QPlainTextEdit'
I have a user interface, TableManagerWindow, that I've been maintaining and developing in Qt designer. After converting via pyuic to a *.py file, I was able to implement what Ferdinand Beyer had suggested in the link you provided above. Simple button to print text to terminal and it indeed does get appended to the QTextEdit widget via append(). Not sure this fits the bill for you for some reason, but I can vouch that it worked for me as well. I'm not savvy enough to get the nuance that is causing your issue, but figured I'd put this here just in case. Admins feel free to delete this if it's extraneous, but it works.

working on simple GUI project. I've got some code from online,and found out how to connect the IP-webcam app, but the question is how do I use this code in my PyQt4 GUI so that the visual of the camera will be shown in the scroll-area widget.
This is the code i used:
import urllib
import cv2
import numpy as np
url='http://192.168.0.100:8080/shot.jpg'
while True:
imgResp=urllib.urlopen(url)
imgNp=np.array(bytearray(imgResp.read()),dtype=np.uint8)
img=cv2.imdecode(imgNp,-1)
# all the opencv processing is done here
cv2.imshow('test',img)
if ord('q')==cv2.waitKey(10):
exit(0)
As #furas points out, a possible option is to use numpy and cv2 to convert it to QPixmap and display it in a QLabel, and so that it looks like streaming run it in a loop.
But instead of getting complicated with all of the above, the simplest thing is to use QtNetwork to get the bytes and convert it directly to QPixmap and send it through signals:
from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui, QtNetwork
class IPWebcam(QtCore.QObject):
pixmapChanged = QtCore.pyqtSignal(QtGui.QPixmap)
def __init__(self, url, parent=None):
super(IPWebcam, self).__init__(parent)
self._url = url
self.m_manager = QtNetwork.QNetworkAccessManager(self)
self.m_manager.finished.connect(self._on_finished)
self.m_stopped = True
def start(self):
self.m_stopped = False
self._launch_request()
def stop(self):
self.m_stopped = True
def _launch_request(self):
request = QtNetwork.QNetworkRequest(QtCore.QUrl(self._url))
self.m_manager.get(request)
#QtCore.pyqtSlot(QtNetwork.QNetworkReply)
def _on_finished(self, reply):
ba = reply.readAll()
pixmap = QtGui.QPixmap()
if pixmap.loadFromData(ba):
self.pixmapChanged.emit(pixmap)
if not self.m_stopped:
self._launch_request()

def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(Widget, self).__init__(parent)
self.m_label = QtGui.QLabel()
self.m_button = QtGui.QPushButton(
"Start", clicked=self.onClicked, checkable=True
)
lay = QtGui.QVBoxLayout(self)
lay.addWidget(self.m_label)
lay.addWidget(self.m_button)
self.resize(640, 480)
url = "http://192.168.0.100:8080/shot.jpg"
self.m_webcam = IPWebcam(url, self)
self.m_webcam.pixmapChanged.connect(self.m_label.setPixmap)
#QtCore.pyqtSlot(bool)
def onClicked(self, checked):
if checked:
self.m_button.setText("Stop")

I've created a wizard with Pyside.
On one page, I create a new thread, which starts an installer.
When the installer is ready, the Wizard should go forward automatically, without clicking the next button.
I've read the pyside documentation, and now my understanding is, that QWizard has a next function. But how can I use this function?
My test is working fine:
from PySide.QtGui import *
from PySide.QtCore import *
...
...
class Install(QWizardPage):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(Install, self).__init__(parent)
def initializePage(self):
self.setTitle("Install")
label = QLabel("Install")
label.setWordWrap(True)
layout = QVBoxLayout()
self.progressBar = QProgressBar(self)
self.progressBar.setRange(0,1)
self.progressBar.setRange(0,0)
layout.addWidget(self.progressBar)
layout.addWidget(label)
self.setLayout(layout)
self.myTask = TaskThread()
self.myTask.start()
self.myTask.taskFinished.connect(self.Finished)
def Finished(self):
print("finish")
def isComplete(self):
return False
class TaskThread(QThread):
taskFinished = Signal()
def run(self):
a = 0
while a != 10000:
print("test")
a += 1
self.taskFinished.emit()
And when I try to use the next function I try:
self.CallNext = QWizard().next
self.myTask.taskFinished.connect(self.CallNext)
And also:
self.myTask.taskFinished.connect(QWizard().next)
But this is not working
This connection should be done in the context where the QWizard and QWizardPage exist, but before that we must move the creation of the QThread to the constructor, for example in the following example I do in the main:
class Install(QWizardPage):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(Install, self).__init__(parent)
self.myTask = TaskThread()
def initializePage(self):
[...]
self.setLayout(layout)
self.myTask.start()
if __name__ == '__main__':
import sys
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
wizard = QWizard()
install = Install()
install.setTitle("installer")
install.myTask.taskFinished.connect(wizard.next)
wizard.addPage(install)
page = QWizardPage()
page.setTitle("next Page")
wizard.addPage(page)
wizard.show()
sys.exit(wizard.exec_())
