python - 如何在一个进程中连续多次启动 pyqt GUI？

Question

我如何构建代码以在进程中连续多次运行 pyqt GUI？

(特别是 pyqtgraph，如果相关的话)

上下文

一个 python 脚本，用于在测量设备上执行长时间运行的数据捕获(一个大的 for 循环)。在每次捕获迭代期间，都会出现一个新的 GUI 并向用户显示来自测量设备的实时数据，同时主要捕获代码正在运行。

我想做这样的事情:

for setting in settings:
  measurement_equipment.start(setting)
  gui = LiveDataStreamGUI(measurement_equipment)
  gui.display()
  measurement_equipment.capture_data(300) #may take hours
  gui.close()

主要问题

我希望数据捕获代码成为主线程。然而 pyqt 似乎不允许这种架构，因为它的 app.exec_() 是一个阻塞调用，允许每个进程只创建一次 GUI(例如，在 gui.display () 上面)。

Answer 1

应用程序是一个可执行进程，它运行在一个或多个前台线程上，每个前台线程也可以启动后台线程来执行并行操作或不阻塞调用线程的操作。应用程序将在所有前台线程结束后终止，因此，您至少需要一个前台线程，在您的情况下，该线程是在您调用 app.exec_() 语句时创建的。在 GUI 应用程序中，这是 UI 线程，您应该在其中创建和显示主窗口和任何其他 UI 小部件。当所有小部件关闭时，Qt 将自动终止您的应用程序进程。

恕我直言，你应该尽量按照上面描述的正常流程，工作流程如下:

Start Application > Create main window > Start a background thread for each calculation > Send progress to UI thread > Show results in a window after each calculation is finished > Close all windows > End application

另外，您应该使用ThreadPool 来确保您不会耗尽资源。

这是一个完整的例子:

import sys
import time
import PyQt5

from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtWidgets
from PyQt5.QtCore import QRunnable, pyqtSignal, QObject
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QMainWindow, QWidget, QDialog


class CaptureDataTaskStatus(QObject):
    progress = pyqtSignal(int, int)  # This signal is used to report progress to the UI thread.
    captureDataFinished = pyqtSignal(dict)  # Assuming your result is a dict, this can be a class, a number, etc..


class CaptureDataTask(QRunnable):
    def __init__(self, num_measurements):
        super().__init__()

        self.num_measurements = num_measurements
        self.status = CaptureDataTaskStatus()

    def run(self):
        for i in range(0, self.num_measurements):
            # Report progress
            self.status.progress.emit(i + 1, self.num_measurements)
            # Make your equipment measurement here
            time.sleep(0.1) # Wait for some time to mimic a long action

        # At the end you will have a result, for example
        result = {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}

        # Send it to the UI thread
        self.status.captureDataFinished.emit(result)


class ResultWindow(QWidget):
    def __init__(self, result):
        super().__init__()

        # Display your result using widgets...
        self.result = result

        # For this example I will just print the dict values to the console
        print('a: {}'.format(result['a']))
        print('b: {}'.format(result['b']))
        print('c: {}'.format(result['c']))


class MainWindow(QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(MainWindow, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

        self.result_windows = []

        self.thread_pool = QtCore.QThreadPool().globalInstance()

        # Change the following to suit your needs (I just put 1 here so you can see each task opening a window while the others are still running)
        self.thread_pool.setMaxThreadCount(1)

        # You could also start by clicking a button, menu, etc..
        self.start_capturing_data()

    def start_capturing_data(self):
        # Here you start data capture tasks as needed (I just start 3 as an example)
        for setting in range(0, 3):
            capture_data_task = CaptureDataTask(300)
            capture_data_task.status.progress.connect(self.capture_data_progress)
            capture_data_task.status.captureDataFinished.connect(self.capture_data_finished)
            self.thread_pool.globalInstance().start(capture_data_task)


    def capture_data_progress(self, current, total):
        # Update progress bar, label etc... for this example I will just print them to the console
        print('Current: {}'.format(current))
        print('Total: {}'.format(total))

    def capture_data_finished(self, result):
        result_window = ResultWindow(result)
        self.result_windows.append(result_window)
        result_window.show()


class App(QApplication):
    """Main application wrapper, loads and shows the main window"""

    def __init__(self, sys_argv):
        super().__init__(sys_argv)

        self.main_window = MainWindow()
        self.main_window.show()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = App(sys.argv)   
    sys.exit(app.exec_())
