Menu
I'm trying to interact with a google map using python. I've built an application in PyQT with a QWebView. The QWebView loads a local html page as shown here:
browser = QwebView()
browser.load(QUrl("file:///c:/main.html"))
frame = browser.page().currentFrame()
frame.evaluateJavaScript(QString("addMarker(-33.89, 151.275)"))
The html page is as follows:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />
<style type="text/css">
html { height: 100% }
body { height: 100%; margin: 0px; padding: 0px }
#map_canvas { height: 100% }
</style>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var map;
function initialize() {
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: latlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),
myOptions);
}
function addMarker(lat, lng) {
var myLatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(lat, lng);
var beachMarker = new google.maps.Marker({position: myLatLng,
map: map
});
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="initialize();">
<div id="map_canvas" style="width:100%; height:100%"></div>
</body>
</html>
How can I call addMarker from Python?
I have tried calling addMarker from the HTML (added the call to the onload call) and I tried using a simple javascript expression from the python (frame.evaluateJavaScript("alert(5)")). Both of those worked, so I know that addMarker and evaluateJavaScript can work, I just don't know how.
I also tried calling evaluateJavaScript("addMarker(-33.89,151.275)") on the frame.documentElement() object and that didn't work either.

The error was that I needed to wait for the page to load. I added a button that was connected to the evaluateJavaScript("addMarker(-33.89,151.275)") call. When I clicked the button (after the page loaded), the marker was added as expected.

The only difference I can see between the two things you tried is that alert() is part of the standard functions. Maybe you need a document.addmarker() instead of just addmarker() ?
