| jackyalcine | Boy, making and patching packages for Ubuntu is no joke. | 10:03 |
|---|---|---|
| jackyalcine | doing that all the time would make you a "rockstar" programmer | 10:03 |
| jackyalcine | lol | 10:03 |

| aminb | hi everyone. can anybody help me with a question about pygtk and "quickly"? | 17:37 |
| dz0ny | aminb: maybe | 17:38 |
| dz0ny | ask | 17:38 |
| aminb | sure | 17:45 |
| aminb | thank you guys | 17:45 |
| aminb | here's my question | 17:45 |
| aminb | I'm using quickly for development. I have to create a few checkboxes during the runtime. | 17:46 |
| aminb | my program has to interact with a webserver and receive data and based on those data it should create some checkboxes on the window | 17:47 |
| aminb | I don't know what I should do exactly. After a I create an instance, do I have to add it to a hbox or vbox or directly to the window? | 17:47 |
| aminb | I'm a newbie in python and I'm a little bit confused :) | 17:47 |
| aminb | can you help me with that? | 17:47 |
| === dpm-laptop is now known as dpm | ||
| dz0ny | hm, checkboxes vary in number? | 17:49 |
| dz0ny | you should add them to vbox | 17:49 |
| aminb | yeah. I'll probably loop through the data that I receive from the server and add checkbox for each item | 17:50 |
| dz0ny | if you have finite number of checkboxes, then maybe better to just change labels? | 17:50 |
| aminb | basically, I'm trying to write a todo list program with the ability to sync the tasks with a webserver | 17:50 |
| aminb | is there a better way than using checkboxes then? | 17:50 |
| dz0ny | html :) | 17:50 |
| aminb | you mean using html inside my local python app? | 17:51 |
| dz0ny | you render ui in webkit, communication is done in python | 17:51 |
| dz0ny | maybe you should first try native python way | 17:52 |
| dz0ny | once you learn all quirks go the hybrid way | 17:52 |
| aminb | damn I'm really a newbie and don't know how to do all that stuff.. | 17:52 |
| dz0ny | just suggestion | 17:52 |
| aminb | yeah that's a good idea | 17:52 |
| dz0ny | html is easier to design | 17:52 |
| dz0ny | gtk is pain | 17:53 |
| aminb | agree | 17:53 |
| aminb | so, can you write me little snippet to add 3 checkboxes for example to a hbox? | 17:53 |
| dz0ny | have you seen http://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ | 17:53 |
| aminb | I've seen it but I haven't read it thoroughly | 17:54 |
| dz0ny | chehck http://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.org/en/latest/button_widgets.html#checkbutton | 17:55 |
| dz0ny | check* | 17:55 |
| dz0ny | i'am mobile right now, if you still can't figure it out. ping me in about one hour | 17:56 |
| aminb | but you know, code generated by quickly is a little bit different than this, and most of these stuff are included by default in libs folder so I don't know how I can create objects after initialization | 17:56 |
| aminb | of course | 17:56 |
| aminb | for example, i saw this: http://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.org/en/latest/layout.html#boxes | 17:56 |
| aminb | but I'm not quite sure how to use it. since quickly generated code is doing the initialization by itself. Do i have to edit those auto generated files then? | 17:57 |
| dz0ny | yea all windows stuff is already done, other code goes to YourAppNameWindow.py | 17:57 |
| dz0ny | check this http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~janez-troha/rtvslo-predvajalnik/quickly_trunk/view/head:/rtvslo/RtvsloWindow.py | 17:59 |
| aminb | so then, how can I add objects to the window after initialization, during the execution of the program? | 18:00 |
| aminb | I will check that code out, while you're reading my question right now :) | 18:00 |
| dz0ny | self.my_vbox= self.builder.get_object("vbox_created_in_glade") | 18:01 |
| dz0ny | then you create checkbox | 18:03 |
| dz0ny | and add to vbox | 18:03 |
| dz0ny | eg self.my_vbox.add(chx_box) | 18:03 |
| dz0ny | thats it | 18:04 |
| dz0ny | you maybe want to add events, connect method | 18:04 |
| dz0ny | but thats it | 18:04 |
| aminb | and then how can add thanks man. I'm currently trying it. but I don't think there is a add method for the box | 18:07 |
| aminb | i guess i gotta use pack_start but i have to see the doc | 18:07 |
| aminb | dz0ny: i'm trying to use this | 18:19 |
| aminb | vp1 = self.builder.get_object("viewport1"); amin = Gtk.Label(); amin.set_text("Hi there! :}"); vp1.add(amin); | 18:19 |
| aminb | and i get no errors but nothing happens on the window :( | 18:19 |
| dz0ny | vp1.show_all(); or vp1.showall(); | 18:20 |
| dz0ny | damm those inconsistencies | 18:20 |
| aminb | it was vp1.show_all() | 18:22 |
| aminb | thank you so much | 18:22 |
| aminb | is there a way of doing it using vbox though? | 18:22 |
| aminb | or i have to deal with viewports? | 18:22 |
| dz0ny | ithe the same just just pack_start instead add | 18:23 |
| aminb | i'm gonna give that a try | 18:24 |
| aminb | damn it. this pack_start is getting on my nerves :D | 18:25 |
| aminb | i should pass 4 params | 18:25 |
| aminb | let's see the docs.. | 18:25 |
| aminb | dz0ny: I got it man :) thanks so much for all your help and patience ^_^ | 18:29 |
| aminb | i'll ask my questions here or maybe from you using /msg | 18:29 |
| aminb | if that's fine :/ | 18:29 |
| jvrbanac | mhall119, I made the changes you mentioned yesterday. The updated diagram is in your email. | 20:27 |
| mhall119 | thanks jvrbanac | 20:29 |
| mhall119 | jvrbanac: release and distro need to be linked | 20:30 |
| mhall119 | at which point, we probably don't need distro linked to platform_items | 20:31 |
| mhall119 | otherwise this looks good | 20:32 |
| jvrbanac | mhall119, Ahh! I miss understood. Ok, distro -> release -> platform | 20:32 |
| jvrbanac | right? | 20:32 |
| mhall119 | right | 20:32 |
| jvrbanac | mhall119, done! I attached them to the wiki page as well. We'll still need to update the page to reflect the changes, but at least we have something to work with. | 20:45 |
| mhall119 | thanks jvrbanac! | 20:48 |
| mhall119 | jvrbanac: we should be able to keep the same UI mockups, they would just be pre-generated when we import APIs, not dynamically generated on page request, right? | 20:49 |
| jvrbanac | mhall119, I would think so. | 21:03 |
