I'm pretty new with Qt in Python, and I need to know how could I get from a file dialog one directory path and show it in a text box inside my ui.
class ControllerLibraryUI(QtWidgets.QDialog):
def __init__(self):
super(ControllerLibraryUI, self).__init__()
self.setWindowTitle('Controller Window')
self.buildUI()
def buildUI(self):
layout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout(self)
textWidget = QtWidgets.QWidget()
textLayout = QtWidgets.QHBoxLayout(textWidget)
layout.addWidget(textWidget)
self.saveNameField = QtWidgets.QTextEdit()
textLayout.addWidget(self.saveNameField)
btnWidget = QtWidgets.QWidget()
btnLayout = QtWidgets.QHBoxLayout(btnWidget)
layout.addWidget(btnWidget)
importBtn = QtWidgets.QPushButton('Import')
importBtn.clicked.connect(self.load)
btnLayout.addWidget(importBtn)
closeBtn = QtWidgets.QPushButton('Close')
closeBtn.clicked.connect(self.close)
btnLayout.addWidget(closeBtn)
def load(self ):
filename = QtWidgets.QFileDialog.getOpenFileName()[0]
print filename
def showUI():
try:
ui.close()
except:
ui = ControllerLibraryUI()
ui.show()
return ui
ui = showUI()
This is the basic concept.
for the file dialog :
directory = QtGui.QFileDialog.getExistingDirectory(self, 'Select directory')
and then you assign the directory variable to the setText method from your text box
