This .ui file is made by Qt Designer. It's just a simple UI.
All the commands or codes for doing this on the websites I have looked through are not for windows.
First we need to import the modules required. We need QtWidgets from PyQt5 for the base widget and uic from PyQt5 also to load the file. We also need sys to access arguments. Next we need to create a base class that will load the .
The pyuic tool works in exactly the same way on all platforms:
C:\>pyuic4 -h
Usage: pyuic4 [options] <ui-file>
Options:
--version show program's version number and exit
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-p, --preview show a preview of the UI instead of generating code
-o FILE, --output=FILE
write generated code to FILE instead of stdout
-x, --execute generate extra code to test and display the class
-d, --debug show debug output
-i N, --indent=N set indent width to N spaces, tab if N is 0 [default: 4]
-w, --pyqt3-wrapper generate a PyQt v3 style wrapper
Code generation options:
--from-imports generate imports relative to '.'
--resource-suffix=SUFFIX
append SUFFIX to the basename of resource files
[default: _rc]
I suspect the reason "it doesn't work" is that the .ui file you are trying to convert is not in the current directory. So you need to cd to that directory first:
C:\>cd C:\path\to\my\ui\files
then run pyuic:
C:\path\to\my\ui\files\>pyuic4 -o ui_form.py form.ui
To convert from .ui
to .py
in Windows
ui
file is.open command window here
.cmd
, check what is the directory of your
(pyuic4.bat) file
. Usually, it is in:
C:\Python34\Lib\site-packages\PyQt4\pyuic4.bat
.cmd
:C:\Python34\Lib\site-packages\PyQt4\pyuic4.bat -x filename.ui -o filename.py
(hit Enter).py
for your .ui
file
and in the same directoryNote: This command for Python 3.4 version and PyQt4 version. If you are using other versions you should change the numbers (e.g PyQt5)
In pyqt5 you can use:
convert to none-executable python file :
pyuic5 -o pyfilename.py design.ui
convert to executable python file :
pyuic5 -x -o pyfilename.py design.ui
and also for resource diles(qrc):
convert qrc
to python file :
pyrcc5 -o pyfilename.py res.qrc
Note:
that if you run the command in the wrong way,your ui
file will be lost.So you have to make a copy of your files:)
Better Late Than Never, create a batch file on windows (.bat) and paste the following into it , save & run from the same directory as your files.
