Hey there,
I would like to request a new repository on codereview.qt-project.org
Name and description: qtscrypt - Script C++ with Python
Responsible person: Cristián Maureira-Fredes
([email protected])
Desired repository name: playground/qtscrypt
URL of existing code: https://git.qt.io/crmaurei/qtscrypt
Thanks
Won't this be confusing? We have had QtScript for the longest time and
it looks like a typo.
Hey Aleix,
thanks for the comments.
I was under the impression that changing the 'i' for a 'y'
from P'y'thon was not confusing, because it was already
mentioned in a couple of talks and nobody mentioned
anything against it.
I wanted to avoid qtscript-python because it's not really qtscript,
it's just the main idea from it.
Do you have any other name suggestion?
(I really struggled with finding a name)
"Script C++ with Python" < should this be "Use Python scripts from
C++"? Or is it indeed C++ being scripted?
Sure,
it could also be 'Use Python scripts from C++',
(or "Use Python code from C++")
I just wanted to write something simple
like the fact that is adding some 'scripting flavor'
on top of C++ code, that's why "Script C++ with Python".
Following the Qt documentation, and the wikipedia page
from QtScript, some other options are:
"The QtScrypt module provides classes for making Qt applications
scriptable with Python"
or
"QtScrypt is a scripting engine that aims to be be part of the Qt
cross-platform application framework."
I'm open to new suggestions :)
Aleix
In any case, If the name and description are too problematic,
I can continue the development outside the Qt Project,
until the project (and the name/description) are mature
enough that I can request a new repository. Just wanted
to make the code public and accept new contributions
from people that showed a positive response after
the last Qt Contributor Summit [1]
Cheers
