[yast-devel] Fwd: Glade-like tool for libyui?

Hi, I was considering starting a TUI and GUI python app, and came to read about the marvels of libyui. Seems great, but... - Is there any tool like Glade for libyui? - Or at least some documentation about writing the UI in XML or JSON? - Also, does python-yui work with python 3? I promise I searched a lot, but cannot find anything. Thanks in advance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner@opensuse.org

Hi, - There is no tool for designing UIs - There is no current way to do xml or json - The python bindings are auto-generated by SWIG, which is basically the C++ API. During our last hack-week we started native bindings for ruby (https://github.com/libyui/ruby-ui) which are not ready yet, but they are close to the ruby language and support templates in slim format. Having something similar for python would be an interesting project. - For json or xml support, it would make more sense to implement it in libyui itself. I remember playing myself with a XUL reader years ago: http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/yast/branches/tmp/dmacvicar/yast-xmlui/libyui/sr...
