ezgooey.ez

Gooey is a Python package, which lets you turn argparse-based CLI apps into cross-platform GUI apps. ezgooey.ez makes this even simpler.

When you start your app without CLI arguments, it’ll run in GUI, but if you supply CLI arguments, it’ll run as CLI. Import, then add the @ezgooey decorator to the function where you initialize the ArgumentParser.

Changelog

  • 1.3.3: added support for add_mutually_exclusive_group
  • 1.3.2: fixes

Simple

        '-a',
        '--alternative',
        dest='alt',
        action='store_true',
        help='alternative processing',
        gooey_options={

The @ezgooey decorator uses the same arguments as the original @Gooey decorator. `See Gooey documentation for a detailed description.

ezgooey.logging

This package also includes a simple colorful logger that is compatible with Gooey's richtext control.

Simple usage

Import and initialize in one place

import ezgooey.logging as logging
logging.init(level=logging.INFO)

Use

logging.info('info')
logging.warning('warning')
logging.error('error')
logging.success('success')

In other places, just do:

import logging
logging.info('info')

Advanced usage

Import and initialize in one place

import ezgooey.logging as logging
logging.init(level=logging.INFO)

In other places:

import ezgooey.logging as logging
log = logging.logger('appname')
log.info('info')
log.warning('warning')
log.error('error')
log.success('success')
...

Example

My PyPolona project is an app, made with the help of ezgooey and packaged for macOS and Windows with PyInstaller. Check the sources for details.
