== Qt for Python ==
The '''Qt for Python''' project aims to provide a complete port of the [[PySide]] module to Qt 5. The development started on [https://github.com/PySide GitHub] in May 2015. The project managed to port Pyside to Qt 5.3, 5.4 & 5.5. During April 2016 The Qt Company decided to properly support the port (see [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/pyside-dev/pqwzngAGLWE details] ).
 
This wiki page tracks the progress of the '''Qt for Python''' project development and provides further information concerning the effort.
 
'''Qt for Python''' will be available under GPL, LGPL and commercial license.
 
== Getting Started ==
* [[PySide2_GettingStarted|Getting started guide for macOS, Windows and Linux]]
* [https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/PYSIDE Bug tracker] to report any issue.
* [https://codereview.qt-project.org CodeReview] and [https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/q/project:%255Epyside.%252B,n,z PySide2 open patches]
* Git repository (5.9 branch is the branch currently worked on for PySide2)
** ssh://codereview.qt-project.org/pyside/pyside-setup
* [[PySide2_Development_Getting_Started|Development: Getting started]]
* [https://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qtforpython/ Official documentation (''in progress'')]
 
== How does '''Qt for Python''' look like? ==
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="python" line='line'>
import sys
from PySide2.QtWidgets import QApplication, QLabel
                                                   
if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = QApplication([])
    label = QLabel("Hello World")
    label.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())
</syntaxhighlight>
 
More examples can be found in the [http://code.qt.io/cgit/pyside/pyside-setup.git/tree/examples project's repository] inside the '''examples''' directory.
== Community ==
 
* Official IRC channel on FreeNode '''#qt-pyside'''
* [http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/pyside Official Mailing list]
* Keybase: [https://keybase.io/team/pyside keybase.io/team/pyside]
* Gitter: [http://gitter.im/PySide/pyside2 gitter.im/PySide/pyside2]
 
== Development Status ==
 
=== Weekly development progress ===
The summary of the development progress can be found in [https://wiki.qt.io/PySide2_Development_Notes Development Notes by date]
 
=== Pyside Development Progress Notes ===
 
The most current view of the progress can be found in Jira:
 
# [https://bugreports.qt.io/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=17825 Unresolved issues]
# [https://bugreports.qt.io/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=18025 All issues (including resolved)]
 
The second link is useful to monitor the progress of the backlog. The best way to achieve this is to sort the list by the "Updated" column.
Larger backlog/feature items are filed as "User Stories" in Jira.
 
=== Missing PySide2 bindings ===
 
The list of the current missing bindings can be found in [[PySide2_Missing_Bindings|Missing PySide2 bindings]]
 
=== Outstanding tasks for release ===
 
# Determine PySide2 package number
# Ensure multi target packages can be created (long standing - reduced Python API usage )
# General Doc changes required for release
## Getting started
## Some examples documented
## pyinstaller usage
## Class documentation polish
## snapshot generation on http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/
 
== Frequently Asked Questions ==
 
* Q: PySide? Qt for Python? what is the name?
** A: The name of the project is '''Qt for Python''' and the name of the module is '''PySide2'''.
* Q: Why PySide2 and not just PySide?
** A: Since PySide was developed for Qt4, when the port was made to support Qt5, the name was change to PySide2 to infer that is was a newer version.
* Q: Where I can find information about the old PySide project?
** A: The old wiki page of the project is available on [[PySide]], '''but''' the project is deprecated, and there is no official support for it. We highly recommend to not use it.
* Q: My project is using PySide, how hard would it be to adapt it to PySide2?
** A: The changes are the same between [https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qt5-intro.html Qt4 and Qt5], and for PySide users means mostly on adapting the ''import'' statement, since many classes were moved from QtGui to QtWidgets.
::''Qt 5 is highly compatible with Qt 4. It is possible for developers of Qt 4 applications to seamlessly move on to Qt 5 with their current functionality and gradually develop new things leveraging all the great items Qt 5 makes possible.
