Hi all, After all the discussions about building a Gui in python, I decided for myself to simply try it and use PySide (1) as graphical part. I knew absolutely nothing of python and neither of pyside but I felt an itch, so I scratched.
PySide is QT based and I knew a little of QT due to my own KImageFuser (2). Next to that I worked a little in the QT designer as (former) OSX maintainer of avidemux (3) for the Qt version (my nickname is surfer, something I did intensely many years ago). So my basic knowledge of QT is the reason I have chosen for pyside instead op wxpython. I made a super simple Assistant in python/pyside. "super simple" referring to my work (really a work in progress), not to the user friendliness. Some screen prints can be found on my website (4). What did I build: - Assistant tab, Load images button: -- loading images -- writing a basis pto -- run cpfind (with celeste when checked on the preferences tab) -- run cpclean (when checked on the preferences tab) -- run autooptimiser (with photometric optimization checked on the preferences tab) - Assistant tab, create panorama button -- run nona (doesn't work on windows, don't know why but I assume something with forward/backward slashes) -- run enblend (doesn't work on windows as nona doesn't create intermediate tiffs, when copying same tiffs in workdir it works). - Images tab loads images and displays them correctly (was easy to copy from my KImagefuser, but you need pyside>=1.0.5) What works: - Assistant on Linux and Mac OS X. second step: create panorama (nona and enblend) doesn't work on windows - Load images tab, but not yet the image display and image info button - Preferences tab with sub tabs: works, but I wanted to store the settings in a SQLite db. Creating and inserting works, retrieving not. Flimsy: - progress bar and progress text is clumsy as I lack events programming skills. What doesn't work: - Menu on MacOSX (known bug: that's why I built the preferences as a tab instead of a menu) - Strong in sqlite db. - nona on windows. What do you need: Linux (in my case Ubuntu): - install hugin (launchpad for example), python, pyside and Qt4 Windows: - download python (www.python.org), pyside (1) and Qt4 (5), the libraries not the SDK. Mac OSX: - If you have macports: install python, pyside for your version and qt4-mac (takes looong) - Otherwise: download python (www.python.org), pyside (1) and Qt4 (5), the libraries not the SDK. Being completely blank w.r.t. python/psyide, it took me about 12 hours or so to build this really basic thing and now I'm done for a while. If you want to try it, simply unpack the attached tgz. If you want to improve it, please do so. note: when moving between windows and unix, always take care to do a dos2unix step from windows to unix otherwise your scripts don't work anymore. I hesitated to create a folder in the trunk as I didn't want to create an experimental branch for only 20KB of files. For the time being I left it out as the community might decide to move into a completely different direction.
