DPGContainers

Motivation

DearPyGUI provides a functional interface for creating objects - windows, groups, et al. This library provides a collection of classes that can be used to create DPG objects as instances.

Installation

pip install dpgcontainers

Example usage

from dpgcontainers.containers import Window, Group, Button

window = Window(width=100, height=200)(
    Group(horizontal=True)(
        Button(tag='button_1'),
        Button(tag='button_2'),
    ),
)


window.tagged_entities['button_1'].callback = lambda: print('clicked!')
window.render()

Children are captured by calling instances as functions. The render cycle is aware of objects that have already been rendered, so the following is fine:

window = Window()

window(Button('button_1'))
window.render()

window(Button('button_2'))
window.render()

• added find method to base class, returns first found named child
• search_named_children deprecated, use newly added find instead.
• added find_all, returns a list of all named children matching name
• added search and search_all methods, which function on named children but allow regex pattern searching
• Themes, Colormaps, and Fonts can now be bound via instance.bind() or instance.bind(item) as appropriate
