PythonQt is a dynamic Python binding for Qt. It offers an easy way to embed the Python scripting language into your Qt applications.
API documentation is available at: https://mevislab.github.io/pythonqt
PythonQt is distributed under the LGPL 2.1
license.
The build system of PythonQt makes use of a patched version of the LGPL'ed QtScript
generator, located in the generator
directory.
See the LICENSE.LGPL
file in the generator subdirectory for details.

See https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt-labs/qtscriptgenerator.git for the original project.
The PythonQt wrappers generated by the generator are distributed under the LGPL
as well.
The generated wrappers are pre-generated and checked-in, so you only need to build and run the generator when you want to build additional wrappers or you want to upgrade/downgrade to another Qt version, but this requires updating the typesystems as well.
To build PythonQt, you need to set the environment variable PYTHON_PATH
to
point to the root dir of the python installation and PYTHON_LIB
to point to
the directory where the python lib file is located. Then you should set the
PYTHON_VERSION
variable to the Python version number.
When using the prebuild Python installer, this will be:
set PYTHON_PATH = c:\Python38
set PYTHON_LIB = c:\Python38\libs
set PYTHON_VERSION = 38
