#144 Taurus Qt designer widget extensions

[Tiago Coutinho]

This feature request proposes to add the capability of defining qt designer custom extensions for specific taurus widgets.

Currently a taurus widget can be added to qt designer:

from taurus.qt.qtgui.util.qtdesigner import QtDesignable

@QtDesignable
class MyWidget(Qt.QWidget):
    pass

or

class MyWidget(Qt.QWidget):

    @classmethod
    def getQtDesignerPluginInfo(cls):
        return ...

However it is not possible to add a customized task menu or a property sheet extension.

This feature request proposes to add options to QtDesignable decorator and to the getQtDesignerPluginInfo to support these extensions. Example:

@QtDesignable(task_menu=MyWidgetTaskMenu)
class MyWidget(Qt.QWidget):
    pass

from taurus.qt.qtdesigner.taurusplugin import TaurusTaskMenu

class MyWidgetTaskMenu(TaurusTaskMenu):

    def taskActions(self):
        # build Qt actions here
        return []

Seems a nice feature to me (and I do not see any drawbacks).
Are you already working on the implementation?

[Carlos Pascual]

BTW: is the QtDesignable decorator already available? (I cannot find it in the develop branch)

No, you're right, it's not. I made a mistake. I'll update the feature
request.

Yes, we are already using at ESRF a rough test. Still not completely
happy with the final API. That's why I haven't proposed anything more
concrete yet.
