gooey's Issues

Add support for "Save" file dialogs

Right now, file dialogs can only open existing files. An example use case for a "save" dialog would be specifying where to save the result of the program, where to save some sort of file output, etc.

Relevant section of code

improve all the textbox

Improve all the textbox to support drag folder and file to the textbox, then the path of file/folder should be added to textbox

Error running Gooey with argparse doc example

Hi,

I ran into this issue while just testing Gooey on the Python doc argparse example:

icon = os.path.join(image_dir, "icon.ico")
__init__ = os.path.join(image_dir, "__init__.py")
__init__ = os.path.join(image_dir, "__init__.pyc")

images = os.path.join(image_dir, "images.jpg")
settings2 = os.path.join(image_dir, "settings2.png")
alessandro_rei_checkmark = os.path.join(image_dir, "alessandro_rei_checkmark.png")
computer = os.path.join(image_dir, "computer.png")
computer3 = os.path.join(image_dir, "computer3.png")
computer2 = os.path.join(image_dir, "computer2.png")

Am I missing something? I just reinstalled a fresh version of Gooey from github (pip install -U git+https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey.git). It might be a bug.

edit : I'm running py27 on a Fedora 20.

Let me know if I can help!

Thx

Feature Request: Cancel button while script is running

Being able to do the equivalent of ^C by pressing a cancel button without losing the console output could be handy in many situations.

Python 3 compatibility

Hi, Gooey is a great idea, I was wondering is it possible to add Python 3 compatibility for this project?

Add option to generate Python source code

This would greatly increase its usefulness, since now the generated Application is limited to what gooey does with the argparse code.

If it were to output the source code, a developer could then finetune it to his specific needs. I would personally use it as a boilerplate GUI for scripts I write.

more a request feature than a bug, there is no site for the project, if you create a "gh-pages" branch I can push request this http://ludovio.github.io/Gooey/
you just have to select the theme you want

Can't copy 'computer3.png': doesn't exist or not a regular file.

sudo python setup.py install
running install
running build
running build_py
package init file 'gooey/images/__init__.py' not found (or not a regular file)
package init file 'gooey/images/__init__.py' not found (or not a regular file)
running install_lib
running install_data
error: can't copy 'computer3.png': doesn't exist or not a regular file

Changing images and languages to below

images = [os.path.join(imagepath, image) for image in os.listdir(imagepath)]

languages = [os.path.join(languagepath, lang)
            for lang in os.listdir(languagepath)
            if '.py' not in lang]

...
setup(
    ...
    data_files = [
        ('', images),
        ('', languages)
    ],
    ...
)

Fixes it. I'm not entirely sure why though. Are you developing on Windows? I'm running Ubuntu

Issues with more complex argparse usage

As written, Gooey does not handle more complex ArgumentParser configurations. The two hitches I ran into are mutually exclusive groups, and directly populating custom classes. For example, I have the following code from a script I threw together for slicing out a geographically relevant subset from a larger dataset:

    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Extract a subset of data from a  directory structure')
    verbosity = parser.add_mutually_exclusive_group()
    verbosity.add_argument('-v', '--verbose', dest='verbose', action="store_true", help="Show more details")
    verbosity.add_argument('-q', '--quiet', dest='quiet', action="store_true", help="Only output on error")
    parser.add_argument('-i', '--indir', dest='indir', type=str, help="The top level of the input directory", required=True)
    parser.add_argument('-o', '--outdir', dest='outdir', type=str, help="Output directory for selected data (Note that this directory will be created if it does not already exist. If it already exists, it will be overwritten)", required=True)
    parser.add_argument('--sw', '--southwest', dest='swCorner', type=Coordinate.fromString, nargs=1, help='Southwest corner of selection region in integer degrees', metavar="{N|S}##{E|W}###", required=True)
    parser.add_argument('--ne', '--northeast', dest='neCorner', type=Coordinate.fromString, nargs=1, help='Northeast corner of selection region in integer degrees', metavar="{N|S}##{E|W}###", required=True)

Gooey immediately choked on the verbosity object. This appears to be due to the fact that monkey_parser.py is naievely evaling the input code, and expecting all lines to be simple add_argument calls. Removing the verbosity object and making those arguments on the base parser got around the issue, but now there is no way to ensure that one and only one of those switches is active. This seems like the sort of thing that would be good to support, perhaps as radio buttons.

The second hitch I ran into was with the last two arguments, which directly insert data into new instances of the custom Coordinate object, via Coordinate.fromString(). This too can be worked around by putting those arguments into strings, then calling fromString() after the fact, but that is sub-optimal, since it results in otherwise un-necessary extra complexity and code.

Variables cannot be used when defining arguments.

The situation is hard to describe but basically,

@Gooey
def main():
    """Main"""
    bar = 'bar'
    parser = ArgumentParser(description='Desc')
    parser.add_argument('bar', help=('bar'))    ##################
    args = parser.parse_args()
    print(args)
    return True

works just fine but if you replace 'bar' with bar in the line flagged with '######', you get

PyInstaller executable issue

After testing the application to work from source, I've built an executable:
pyinstaller.exe --onefile app.py

When I run the app.exe from the cmd, it prints the following error to the log:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 146, in
File "C:...\build\app\out00-PYZ.pyz\gooey.python_bindings.gooey_decorator", line 86, in inner
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\Users...\AppData\Local\Temp_MEI108682\gooey_tmp\app.exe'

Does Gooey play well with PyInstaller or it hasn't been tested?

show_config results in UnboundLocalError

In the mockapplication module_with_no_argparse, build spec is shown to be referenced before assignment.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\gooey\gooey\mockapplications\module_with_no_argparse.py", line 18, in <module>
    main()

    frame = BaseWindow(BodyPanel, build_spec, params)
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'build_spec' referenced before assignment

Feature Request: if argparse isn't present, just treat as config=False

One-off scripts might be small enough not to specifically require argparse, or might have everything managed via a config file. Not strictly requiring argparse would permit an easier integration (just the decorator) in this use case.

Subparser support

Just tried Gooey - and it stumbled upon subparsers:

alessandro_rei_checkmark = os.path.join(image_dir, "alessandro_rei_checkmark.png")

The code preparation in https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey/blob/master/gooey/code_prep.py does not play well with this (multiple subparsers with similar names).

Fix the title to be less ambitious (at least mention that it's Python only)

Preamble: my reaction to the project

Turn (almost) any command line program into a full GUI application with one line

So my little C programs can have GUI for free? Wow.

setup.py

Python? Sad, no easy Windows portability.

Gooey is attached to your code via a simple decorator ...

So it's not just Gooey in Python, but also the target program nees to be in Python? So it's not that useful... But I still have a number of sys.argv-parsing Python programs, which I'll now automagically ...

parses it for all references to ArgumentParser

What is it? Probably a python battery for parsing command line arguments (never used that). So none of my programs can be "covered" by Gooey. Sad.

Proposals

I think the scope (Python programs using ArgumentParser) should be declared up front, not in the middle of README. (almost) any command line program is an exaggeration.

Or you will add a mode for arbitrary external programs (i.e. calling them with --help, parsing that human-readable (but structuted) description of possible command line arguments and values, then showing the window)?

Hooks to update the status of the progress bar

If the script can measure its progress, it would be nice to make calls to update the status of the progress bar instead of it being infinite.

Support for docopt

http://docopt.org/ (python project at https://github.com/docopt/docopt) is a great tool for commandline scripts. It would be great to have Gooey support it :)

Error in `python': double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x00000000027dbd10

Hi there,

Finally decided to test this out on Linux. When I decide to invoke the script like so:

python imgur.py

I get an error like this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "imgur.py", line 35, in <module>

  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/Gooey-0.1.0-py2.7.egg/gooey/gooey_decorator.py", line 85, in inner

Invoking the script with sudo python imgur.py seems to fix that issue, but then when I decide to run it, the program crashes and I end up with something like this (emphasis on the last error to do with the double free corruption thingy):

(python:2533): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_text_layout_real_invalidate: assertion 'layout->wrap_loop_count == 0' failed

You must use marks, character numbers, or line numbers to preserve a position across buffer modifications.
You can apply tags and insert marks without invalidating your iterators,
but any mutation that affects 'indexable' buffer contents (contents that can be referred to by character offset)

*** Error in `python': double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x00000000027dbd10 ***

Not sure if this has something to do with the way I installed wxPython, perhaps? I had to follow these instructions to get it installed:

http://wiki.wxpython.org/InstallingOnUbuntuOrDebian

For DIST I used "natty" since that seemed to be the newest Ubuntu distro in that list. But even then, I'm using Linux Mint, not Ubuntu (even though Mint is based on Ubuntu).

This was my Gooey script I used:

I observed that there was an OS X support feature in the TODO, but no issue in the tracker so I added one as I would like to hear when this will be available.

It looks like either you could change your setup.py to use README.txt (not sure why you have two readme's?):

with open('README.txt') as readme:

Or just include README.md in your MANIFEST.in file.

Support Qt

Adding Qt support would greatly increase your userbase :-).

No module named 'gooey-decorator'

On running test.py / my own test program, it errors saying that gooey-decorator is not a module.

Python3 support

It would be great if gooey could run under python3. It's the future !

Using file picker instead of text field

It could be interesting to have the choice to use filer picker instead of text field.

I have started to work on such a change but I haven't got time to make this perfect and shiny.

Here is what I have done so far

https://gist.github.com/SylvainDe/0d4e7eec2ca223e1cf02

IOError: Could not find english language file

Now #8 is fixed, I can install gooey on Ubuntu.

Running a very simple test program (code stolen from argparse docs example) gives me an error:

from gooey import Gooey
import argparse

@Gooey
def main():
    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Process some integers.')
    parser.add_argument('integers', metavar='N', type=int, nargs='+',
                       help='an integer for the accumulator')
    parser.add_argument('--sum', dest='accumulate', action='store_const',
                       const=sum, default=max,
                       help='sum the integers (default: find the max)')

    args = parser.parse_args()

IOError: Could not find english language file

Looking in my /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gooey/languages, there's no .json files, only eng.py, init.py and their .pyc companions.

Something is still not going quite right with copying over the language files.

The path where I have the gooey download is /home/mb/Documents/python/Gooey, nothing exotic in there.

When I copy over the language files manually, it then complains that it can't find the images directory

OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gooey/images'

After copying those over as well, it works pretty well 👍

Edit: found where the files get copied to: the files from gooey/images and gooey/languages get copied to /usr/local for some reason, instead of to /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gooey/...

Update Readme graphics to reflect new functionality

Need new screens showing Restart button

Date picker instead of text field

Similar to #25.

Would improve usability, and would reduce confusion from incorrectly formatted date strings.

IndentationError when block statement is in main() function

When I run the following MWE:

from gooey import Gooey, GooeyParser

@Gooey
def main():
    parser = GooeyParser(description="My Cool GUI Program!") 
    parser.add_argument('Filename', widget="FileChooser")
    parser.add_argument('--hello', action='store_true', default=False)
    args = parser.parse_args()

    print args.Filename
    if args.hello:
        print 'Hello!!'

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "gui.py", line 16, in <module>

    print 'Hello!!'
    ^
IndentationError: unexpected indent

I took a look at what is being passed to modules.load() and it is the following:

from gooey import Gooey, GooeyParser

def main():
    parser = GooeyParser(description="My Cool GUI Program!") 
    parser.add_argument('Filename', widget="FileChooser")
    parser.add_argument('--hello', action='store_true', default=False)
    return parser

        print 'Hello!!'

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

I understand that there is a fair amount of magic going on under the hood to get this to work, but it seems that this magic does not expect there to be any nested code structures in the main() function after the parser has been fully defined. Everything works as expected if there are no nested structures or if the nested structures are put into a separate function.

Could Gooey be updated to either handle this situation, or reflect this limitation in the README (if this limitation cannot be overcome)?

P.S. Amazing library!

It also would be nice to publish this great project on PyPI. :)

Graphic work

What kind of graphics do you need?
Can you provide a list / table with, for each graphic elements:

Name
Description
Context (icon, illustration )
Format(s) and size(s)

Examples?

Decided to tinker with this a couple days ago and I'm really liking it. I wrote a simple example Gooey app (to present to fellow Pythoners) and then I thought, it would be nice if we had some sort of page here (i.e. a wiki page) that could showcase some examples made by the community or whatever. It would possibly help out those that are a bit new to argparse as well.

Not a particularly big deal though. :)

nargs optional arguments not able to add

:) sorry for all the reports but I think it just means you have an awesome plugin and people use it!

So when I specify the following argument:
parser.add_argument('gpx_files', type=argparse.FileType('r'), nargs='+', help='File containing GPX metadata that will be uploaded to the UV server.')
I get one input field in the required (which is correct because + means one or more) and an optional but empty fieldset. Is there a way to dynamically add an optional field? Like a [+] button.

Also, it seems that type=file gets a file input widget but argparse.FileType gets just a text input.

Two Icons appearing back to back on top right corner on Restarting job.

When we run for the first time A success like icon appears on completion.
AND When we click on Restart button another icon along with success icon appears.

Check the attached screen shot.

Docstrings in source cause Gooey to crash

Specifically in source_parser when it attempts to read __dict__ from the string object. Test using a file with """Some content""" inline - I believe any multiline comments will exhibit the same behavior

The symptom AFAIK is an error emitted from modules when the post-guification code is attempted to be executed.from a source file that includes docstrings.

Have Gooey work with docopt

Really cool library.

Not so much an issue, more of a feature request: have Gooey work with or use docopt.

no dependency information in readme or setup.py

see https://python-packaging-user-guide.readthedocs.org/en/latest/current.html

"Terminate/Stop" button next to loading image

Can this have a Terminate/Stop like button next to loading image so that job can be stopped in between.
And a "Restart" button will help to start it again.

Have a "Restart!" button at the execution window for easy restart

Hi,

When we execute our job using UI and do some changes in linked file and then want to execute again.
We have to do following:

Close the current window.
Start script again.
Provide all the arguments again (Very much annoying)
Click 'Start'

Instead.

This can just have a "Restart" button that can run the job with last supplied parameters for ease.

Could not locate ArgumentParser statements in Main() ?

Hi all,

I am trying to run a very simple example with argparse and gooey (found here), just to start learning how I could use it.

import argparse
from gooey import Gooey

@Gooey
def Main():
    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description="Short sample app")

    parser.add_argument('-a', action="store_true", default=False)
    parser.add_argument('-b', action="store", dest="b")
    parser.add_argument('-c', action="store", dest="c", type=int)

    print parser.parse_args()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    Main()

Unfortunately, I already run through an error:

PS C:\Users\xx> python .\gooeyparstest.py

Any ideas on why ArgumentParser cannot be found?

Thanks a lot
