About:
PyQt-builder is a tool that generates the PyQt6 bindings and compiles the necessary C++ code. It simplifies the complex process of building PyQt from source by handling the SIP configuration and compilation steps. This enables developers to create custom PyQt builds or integrate the framework into complex environments.
Key Features:
  • Automates SIP binding generation
  • Simplifies C++ compilation for PyQt
  • Supports custom build configurations
  • Integrates with standard build systems
Use Cases:
  • Compiling PyQt6 from source code
  • Creating custom PyQt builds with specific modules enabled
  • Packaging PyQt applications for distribution
Alternatives:
  • sip – SIP is the underlying binding generator; PyQt-builder provides a higher-level build system wrapper around it.
