I'm a beginner at pyqt but I thought this posting may be helpful as a kind of 'hello world' example.
#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys
from PyQt4 import Qt
app = Qt.QApplication(sys.argv)
def foo():
print "Great , Day"
window = Qt.QWidget()
#---------------------------
#set background color in rgb, add some buttons with a callback then show
#---------------------------
bgcol = Qt.QColor(105,105,105)
window.setStyleSheet("QWidget { background-color: %s }" %bgcol.name())
window.setWindowTitle("Block Rig")
window.setGeometry(300,300,280,170)
layout = Qt.QVBoxLayout(window)
btn1 = Qt.QPushButton("Arm Rig",None)
btn2 = Qt.QPushButton("Leg Rig",None)
app.connect(btn1, Qt.SIGNAL("clicked()"), foo)
app.connect(btn2, Qt.SIGNAL("clicked()"), foo)
lab = Qt.QLabel("Great , Day")
cbox = Qt.QCheckBox("G&reat Day")
combox = Qt.QComboBox()
combox.addItem("A")
combox.addItem("B")
sbox = Qt.QSpinBox()
layout.addWidget(lab)
layout.addWidget(btn1)
layout.addWidget(btn2)
layout.addWidget(cbox)
layout.addWidget(combox)
layout.addWidget(sbox)
window.show()
app.exec_()
These are some tutorials that helped me write this:
Python Programming/PyQt4 (wikibook dot org)
Jan Bodnar (zetcode dot com)
David Boddie (boddie dot org dot uk)
These are what I downloaded for my personal macbook installed in this order: (python then qt libaries then last pyqt)
(Note after installing python 2.7.3 open ~/.bash_profile file and make sure that the python export path for this python is before all others. To tell if 2.7.3 is being used in a terminal typing python can read at top and see if it is)
python--
