TOTAL 525 29 94% what you need
- PySide 1.2.4
- Python 2.7
but in the future I'll support Python3 and PySide2
how to use it
Use any python object as a MVVM model. It must use Observable as metaclass and must define observed_fields = (...) as a tuple of fields to be observed.
class MyModel(object):
__metaclass__ = Observable
field1 = None
field2 = None
field3 = None
observed_fields = ('field1', 'field2', 'field3')then add a view instance and a model instance to the ViewModel
model = Model()
view = AView()
vm = ViewModel(model)
vm.add_view(view)ViewModel will manage 2-way databinding. Just be sure that the object's name for the field inside the view matches the name of a field inside the model.
a gist is here.
what's missing
- documentation (readthedocs.org in a near future)
- documentation (inside the code... sorry for that...)
TODO
connectors.py needs to be refactored a little... but it'll be easy.
