traitsui: traits-capable user interfaces
Project description
============================================
TraitsUI: Traits-capable windowing framework
============================================
The TraitsUI project contains a toolkit-independent GUI abstraction layer,
which is used to support the "visualization" features of the
`Traits <http://github.com/enthought/traits>`_ package.
Thus, you can write model in terms of the Traits API and specify a GUI
in terms of the primitives supplied by TraitsUI (views, items, editors,
etc.), and let TraitsUI and your selected toolkit and back-end take care of
the details of displaying them.
The following GUI backends are supported:
- wxPython
- PyQt
- PySide
**Warning:** In TraitsUI version 5.0 the default GUI backend will change from
``wx`` to ``qt4``.
Example
-------
Given a Traits model like the following::
from traits.api import HasTraits, Str, Range, Enum
class Person(HasTraits):
name = Str('Jane Doe')
age = Range(low=0)
gender = Enum('female', 'male')
person = Person(age=30)
we can use TraitsUI to specify a and display a GUI view::
from traitsui.api import Item, RangeEditor, View
person_view = View(
Item('name'),
Item('gender'),
Item('age', editor=RangeEditor(mode='spinner')),
buttons=['OK', 'Cancel'],
resizable=True,
)
person.configure_traits(view=person_view)
which creates a GUI which looks like this:
.. image:: README_example.png
Prerequisites
-------------
If you want to run traitsui, you must also install:
* `traits <https://github.com/enthought/traits>`_
* `pyface <https://github.com/enthought/pyface>`_
