Solved embed a python function into my Qt App.

@vinaygopal said in embed a python function into my Qt App.:
"the code model could not parse an input file,which might lead to incorrect code completion"
You can ignore this.
Can you show the exact linker error?

@jsulm these are the errors i get
this is my main fail
#include <QApplication> #include <QDebug> #include <Python.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { QApplication a(argc, argv); qDebug()<<"working"<<endl; return a.exec();
these are the errors
C:\Users\vinay\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\include\pytime.h:6: In file included from ..\..\..\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\include/pytime.h:6:0, C:\Users\vinay\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\include\Python.h:87: from ..\..\..\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\include/Python.h:87, C:\Users\vinay\Documents\first_qml_training\example_project\main.cpp:6: from ..\example_project\main.cpp:6: C:\Users\vinay\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\include\object.h:448: error: expected unqualified-id before ';' token PyType_Slot *slots; /* terminated by slot==0. */

@vinaygopal This is not linker error but compiler.
Try to include the header like this:extern "C" { #include <Python.h> }
-
@jsulm I tried it and i got the same set of errors however when i tried with the right click and add library method i get this following error
:-1: error: No rule to make target 'C:/Users/vinay/Documents/first_qml_training/example_project/../../../AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python37-32/libs/libpython37d.a', needed by 'debug/example_project.exe'. Stop.

@vinaygopal Can you show your pro file?

@vinaygopal On Windows it should be:
LIBS += $$PWD/../../../AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python37-32/libs/python37.lib
See https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmake-variable-reference.html#libs
-
@jsulm i did add the library as you had recomended it still did'nt work and more importantly i figured the module python.h and its equivalent library is not compatible with mingw gcc compiler it is only compatible with microsoft specific compilers as suggested by this question (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6731100/link-to-python-with-mingw) they have provided an answer but is there a simpler way to get this done?
-
@vinaygopal One question: do you build your app as 64bit? Your Python seems to be 32bit.
-
@jsulm i am building my apps in the 64 bit configuration. shoudl i change it to 32 bit and try building the program again?
-
@vinaygopal said in embed a python function into my Qt App.:
shoudl i change it to 32 bit
Yes, you can't mix 32bit and 64bit
-
@jsulm uninstalled python 32 bit and reinstalled 64bit version of python and included the libraries still the same error

-
@vinaygopal Can you show your current pro file?
Also did you a clean rebuild? -
@jsulm yes i clean the build run qmake and then build the file everytime i change the pro file

I'm keeping an eye on this thread. As I said right at the start
You can indeed go down @jsulm's path, but embedding is a lot more involved than just running a subprocess.
But as phrased if all you want to do is run an external script with some command-line arguments [...], it really is simple to do with QProcess, should take one minute to write.I do hope/presume that (for both your sakes) for use case here all this embedding is indeed required and worth the effort! :)
-
@vinaygopal Looks correct to me. I would try this:
- Delete build directory
- Run qmake
- build
-
@vinaygopal how dead set are you on Python as the scripting language?
If it's not dictated and just a random selection, I'll want to offer 2 alternatives
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qscriptengine.html#details
and
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qjsengine.html#detailsfor QScript and JavaScript respectively, no external libs required
-
@vinaygopal said in embed a python function into my Qt App.:
@vinaygopal originally wrote just:i want to open up the python script (.py file) and run the python script written by me and exit python. I should be able to pass arguments to the python file through Qt c++? please help me out on how to achieve this. i did do some reading about QProcess class but i am not able to achieve this.
If that is indeed all he wants to do, he may not need any integrated scripting, he may just need to make his
QProcess
attempt work and we would be done....If he would say why/what the script is supposed to do which requires embedding, we would all know what is required....

@JonB @jsulm @J-Hilk ok alright! i give up on embedding python into my program! it just doesn't seem to work however this is the reason for me to use Python, i have a file in my local desktop and i have to send it to the cloud and make the image uploaded a public image these cases can be easily achieved using python if i have to do it with javascript i will have to do it using node JS which will complicate the app, so from QProcess i am able to open the python file inside the python file i have a function called upload blob and it takes two arguments how do i call this function blob and pass those 2 arguments to them using QProcess().
My C++ code
QApplication a(argc, argv); qDebug()<<"working"<<endl; int result=QProcess::execute("C:/Users/vinay/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python38/python.exe",QStringList("C:/Users/vinay/Documents/first_qml_training/example_project/upload_to_cloud.py")<<"C:/Users/vinay/Documents/python folder/player1.png"<<"tank.png"); qDebug()<<result<<endl;
My python function
#!/usr/bin/env python # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- from gcloud import storage import os os.environ["GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS"]="C:/Users/vinay/Downloads/My First Example Project-507e91a5b594.json" def upload_blob(source_file_name, destination_blob_name): """Uploads a file to the bucket.""" bucket_name="example_1995" storage_client = storage.Client() bucket = storage_client.get_bucket(bucket_name) blob = bucket.blob(destination_blob_name) blob.upload_from_filename(source_file_name) print('File {} uploaded to {}.'.format( source_file_name, destination_blob_name)) print("i am working")
