I'm making a guide with pyqt and I'm including an ipython qtconsole widget.
try:
from qtconsole.rich_jupyter_widget import RichJupyterWidget as ipythonWidget
from qtconsole.inprocess import QtInProcessKernelManager
except:
from IPython.qt.console.rich_ipython_widget import RichIPythonWidget as ipythonWidget
from IPython.qt.inprocess import QtInProcessKernelManager
I want to modify the qtconsole input from my code but is not working. I've tried the set_next_input function but it doesn't work and I can't find another function I can use to acomplish what I want. Is even possible to achieve what I want? and if so, how can I do it?
Here is my code:
try:
from qtconsole.rich_jupyter_widget import RichJupyterWidget as ipythonWidget
from qtconsole.inprocess import QtInProcessKernelManager
except:
from IPython.qt.console.rich_ipython_widget import RichIPythonWidget as ipythonWidget
from IPython.qt.inprocess import QtInProcessKernelManager
import sys
from PyQt4 import QtGui
class sympyIpython(QtGui.QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.ipython = IpythonWidget()
v = QtGui.QVBoxLayout(self)
button = QtGui.QPushButton('append to input')
v.addWidget(self.ipython)
v.addWidget(button)
button.clicked.connect(self.symClicked)
def symClicked(self):
self.ipython.kernel.shell.set_next_input(' appended text')
class IpythonWidget(ipythonWidget):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.kernel_manager = QtInProcessKernelManager()
self.kernel_manager.start_kernel()
self.kernel = self.kernel_manager.kernel
self.kernel.gui = 'qt4'
self.kernel_client = self.kernel_manager.client()
self.kernel_client.start_channels()
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
m = sympyIpython()
m.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
Reposting as an answer:
To change the text at the prompt in the Qt console, set input_buffer
on the widget object:
jupyter_widget.input_buffer = 'text'
