## Bug Reports and Feature Requests
|
|
|
|
If you have encountered a problem with QDarkStyle or have an idea for a new
|
|
feature, please submit it to the
|
|
[issue tracker](https://github.com/ColinDuquesnoy/QDarkStyleSheet/issues).
|
|
|
|
## Contributing to QDarkStyle
|
|
|
|
The recommended way for new contributors to submit code to QDarkStyle is to
|
|
fork the repository on GitHub and then submit a pull request after
|
|
committing the changes. The pull request will then need to be approved by one
|
|
of the manteiners before it is merged into the main repository.
|
|
|
|
- Check for open issues or open a fresh issue to start a discussion around a
|
|
feature idea or a bug.
|
|
- Fork [the repository](https://github.com/ColinDuquesnoy/QDarkStyleSheet)
|
|
on GitHub to start making your changes to the master branch.
|
|
- Write a test which shows that the bug was fixed or that the feature works
|
|
as expected if its a function, or create a screenshot if you are changing
|
|
the stylesheet evidencing the changes.
|
|
- Send a pull request and bug the maintainer until it gets merged and
|
|
published. Make sure to add yourself to
|
|
[AUTHORS](./AUTHORS.md)
|
|
and the change(s) to
|
|
[CHANGES](./CHANGES.md).
|
|
|
|
## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
These are the basic steps needed to start developing on QDarkStyle.
|
|
|
|
- Create an account on GitHub.
|
|
|
|
- Fork the main
|
|
[QDarkStyle repository](https://github.com/ColinDuquesnoy/QDarkStyleSheet)
|
|
using the GitHub interface.
|
|
|
|
- Clone the forked repository to your machine.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/USERNAME/qdarkstyle
|
|
cd qdarkstyle
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Checkout the appropriate branch.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout master
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Setup a virtual environment (not essential, but highly recommended).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
virtualenv ~/.venv
|
|
. ~/.venv/bin/activate
|
|
pip install -e .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Create a new working branch. Choose any name you like.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout -b feature-xyz
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Hands on.
|
|
|
|
For tips on working with the code, see the Code Guide.
|
|
|
|
- Test, test, test.
|
|
|
|
Testing is best done through ``tox``, which provides a number of targets and
|
|
allows testing against multiple different Python environments:
|
|
|
|
- Please add a list point to [CHANGES](./CHANGES.md) if the fix or
|
|
feature is not trivial (small doc updates, typo fixes).
|
|
|
|
- Please add you as an author to [AUTHORS](./AUTHORS.md).
|
|
|
|
- Add files to commit.
|
|
|
|
Add files that are part of your changes, remember that each commit
|
|
must represent a small but functional change. Remember to add CHANGES.md
|
|
and AUTHORS.md too. To add all files changed do:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git add .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Commiting changes.
|
|
|
|
GitHub recognizes certain phrases that can be used to automatically
|
|
update the issue tracker, so you can commit like this:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git commit -m "Add useful new feature that does this, close #42"
|
|
```
|
|
```bash
|
|
git commit -m "Fix returning problem for get_style(), fix #78"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Push changes in the branch to your forked repository on GitHub.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git push origin feature-xyz
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Submit a pull request (PR).
|
|
|
|
Do it from your branch to the respective branch using the
|
|
[GitHub PR](https://github.com/ColinDuquesnoy/QDarkStyleSheet/pulls)
|
|
interface.
|
|
|
|
- Wait for mainteiner to review your changes.
|
|
|
|
## Logging
|
|
|
|
Inside modules we provided a logging that should be used to inform the user.
|
|
Please, follow the levels bellow.
|
|
|
|
- debug: for debug information, high detailed one, directed to programers;
|
|
- info: something important for common user to know;
|
|
- warning: something that should not be a big problem or a desicision changed;
|
|
- error: some error, but not capable of stop program;
|
|
- critical: something that stops the running program.
|
|
|
|
## Guide to QDarkStyle
|
|
|
|
Now you can use our example to work on the stylesheet. It has all possible
|
|
widget provided by Qt - common ones. Feel free to add more to them.
|
|
|
|
To simplify the structure, there are separated files in
|
|
[example.ui](.example/ui/) folder.
|
|
|
|
- `dw_buttons.ui`: all types of buttons;
|
|
- `dw_containers_no_tabs.ui`: all types of containers except for tabs;
|
|
- `dw_containers_tabs.ui`: all containers tabs;
|
|
- `dw_displays.ui`: all types of displays;
|
|
- `dw_inputs_fields.ui`: all types of inputs with fields;
|
|
- `dw_inputs_no_fields.ui`: all types of inputs without fields;
|
|
- `dw_views.ui`: all types of views;
|
|
- `dw_widgets.ui`: all types of widgets;
|
|
- `mw_menus.ui`: main window with all menus and toolbars.
|
|
|
|
*Obs.: `dw` stands for dock widget and `mw` for main window.*
|
|
|
|
The entire example is built at runtime, in
|
|
[example.py](./example/example.py). To see more information about it,
|
|
see its documentation.
|
|
|
|
### Modifying UI Files
|
|
|
|
Feel free to modify [ui](./example/ui) files with Qt Designer and recompile UI using
|
|
[process_ui.py](./script/process_ui.py) script, inside script folder, using:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python process_ui.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It will generate all `_ui.py` files for PyQt4, PyQt5, PySide, QtPy, PyQtGraph.
|
|
|
|
### Modifying QSS File
|
|
|
|
If you are changing the [stylesheet](.qdarkstyle/style.qss), you will need
|
|
to recompile the QRC files using [process_qrc.py](./script/process_qrc.py)
|
|
script, inside script folder.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python process_qrc.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This generates all `_rc.py` files for PyQt4, PyQt5, PySide, QtPy, PyQtGraph.
|
|
|
|
### Making It Easy
|
|
|
|
To simplify this process for the developer, if you are changing many things,
|
|
use the script [run_ui_css_edition.py](./script/run_ui_css_edition.py):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run_ui_css_edition.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This creates a loop that restarts the application, process ui and css
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
For more information about those scripts, see their documentation.
|
|
|
|
### Qt, Stylesheets and Palettes
|
|
|

|
|
- [Box model with height and width](https://www.tutorialrepublic.com/lib/images/css-box-model.jpg)
|
|
- [Customizing Widgets](http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/stylesheet-customizing.html)
|
|
- [Window structure](http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/images/mainwindowlayout.png)
|
|
- [QMainWindow](http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmainwindow.html)
|
|
- [References](http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/stylesheet.html)
|
|
|
|
Create good palettes with these tools. For example, on paletton, choose
|
|
three colors from greyish light (foreground), greyish dark (background)
|
|
and three more colorfull colors (selection). Greyish colors have a litle
|
|
bit of the main color, so it is nice to change it if you change the main
|
|
color.

## Unit Testing and Fix Preview
|
|
|
|
It is a good practice, if you are writing functions to QDarkStyle or fixing
|
|
something related to those functions (not style), that you provide a test
|
|
for it.
|
|
|
|
If you are fixing something about style, please, at least, provide an
|
|
screenshot before and after the fix to comparison. This could be inserted
|
|
in the issue tracker, as a message. Better than that, use modules provided
|
|
in test folder to create a GUI test, creating a new file for it.
|
|
|
|
Check [test](./test) files to more details. Tests will keep our application stable.
|

## If You Are a Mantainer, Go Ahead
|
|
|
|
We create a guide to create and upload this package to PyPI, follow the
|
|
instructions in [PRODUCTION](./PRODUCTION.md). |
