Build A PyQt Application by PyCharm

A typical structure of a PyQt applications is as follows,

APP -- src (main.py, ...)

         |- ui (mainwindow.py, *.ui, ...)

         |- rc (*.qrc, icons, images, ...)

Note:

PyCharm 4.5 support python 3 and PyQt 5

.qrc files have to managed by hand as xml files. Otherwise they can be generated by Qt Creator. They are compiled in the folowing way

pyrcc5 app.qrc -o app_rc.py

*.ui files can be generated by Qt Designer and be compiled by pyuic5 and then Ui_*.py can be imported and called by other python code

pyuic5 logindialog.ui -o ui_logindialog.py

For PySide applications, above tools are pyside-uic and pyside-rcc, respectively.

A very good tutorial about PyQt is here

BTW, to keep a Desktop link of Pycharm, and call its shortcut by Win key,

I suggest install Pycharm with sudo account
