Introduction
38 
==============
39
40 
``generateds_gui.py`` provides a graphical front end for
41 
``generateDS.py``.  Some may find it easier to configure and to
42 
select and set options for ``generateDS.py`` using this graphical
43 
application.
44
45
46 
Requirements
47 
==============
48
49 
You will need Gtk support for Python in order to run
50 
``generateds_gui.py``.
51
52 
You must run ``generateds_gui.py`` under Python 3.  Python 2 is not
53 
supported.
54
55 
Note that you can use the "--session" command line flag supported by
56 
``generateDS.py`` on a machine that does not have Python Gtk support
57 
installed.

What it does
64 
--------------
65
66 
Here are some of the different ways that you can use
67 
``generateds_gui.py``:
68
69 
#. You can generate modules from within ``generateds_gui.py`` using
70 
   the "Generate" item in the "Tools" menu.
7172737475767778798081828384858687888990919293949596979899100101102103104105106107108109110111112113114115116117118119120121122123124125126127128129130131132133134135136137138139140
#. You can produce and view a command line that reflects your configuration using the "Generate CL" item in the "Tools" menu, and then you can copy and paste the resulting command line into a ``bash`` script (for Linux) or a ``.bat`` file (for MS Windows), which you can then run from the command line. #. You can run the session file that you've saved with the "--session" command line flag supported by ``generateDS.py``. #. You can load a previously saved session file into ``generateds_gui.py`` using the "--session" command line option, and then modify that session and/or use it to generate modules, or to generate a command line. How to use it --------------- You can get some help by running the following:: $ ./generateds_gui.py --help Command line options and arguments:: Usage: python generateds_gui.py [options] --session=<some_session_file.session> example: python generateds_gui.py --session=generator01.session Options: -h, --help show this help message and exit --exec-path=EXEC_PATH path to executable generated in command line. Example: "python /path/to/generateDS.py". Default: "./generateDS.py". Use Tools/Generate CL (Ctrl-T) to see it. --impl-gui=IMPL_GUI name of glade file that defines the GUI if not embedded. -s SESSION, --session=SESSION name of a session file to be loaded. exec-path If your copy of ``generateDS.py`` is in a special location, you can specify that location using this option. The version of ``generateDS.py`` at that location will be run when you select the "Generate" item from the "Tools" menu. impl-gui The file ``generateds_gui.glade`` specifies and describes the user interface. This file has been embedded into ``generateds_gui.py``. If you modify ``generateds_gui.glade`` and want to use that modified version, specify it with this option. s, session If you have created and saved a session file using ``generateds_gui.py`` and want to load that file the next time you run ``generateds_gui.py``, use this option. Alternatively, once ``generateds_gui.py`` has been started, you can use the "Load session" item under the "File" menu. Internationalization ====================== *Note:* This work on internationalization for generateds_gui is experimental and does not yet work. Preparation -------------

Here is what I've done:: $ cd generateds/gui/ $ mkdir po # Create the template file. $ xgettext -k_ -kN_ -o po/generateds_gui.pot generateds_gui.glade # Create a file for the translator. This one is for the Russian language. $ msginit --locale=ru --input=generateds_gui.pot And, after someone has added their translations (for example, to ``ru.po``), we translate it to binary with the following command:: $ msgfmt -o generateds_gui.mo ru.po Finally, move the binary file to the appropriate directory under the directory containing the executable (``generateds_gui.py``). See `Installation and setup`_. Installation and setup ------------------------ Now we have to move the ``.mo`` file where it will be used when we run ``generateds_gui.py``. We place it in a sub-directory under the location of ``generateds_gui.py`` itself. :: $ cd /directory/containing/generateds_gui.py $ mkdir locale $ mkdir locale/ru $ mkdir locale/ru/LC_MESSAGES $ mv generateds_gui.mo locale/ru/LC_MESSAGES/ Additional information ------------------------ Here are some helpful references: - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gettext - http://faq.pygtk.org/index.py?req=show&file=faq22.002.htp - http://www.servin.com/linux/GladeInternationalization.html - http://www.learningpython.com/2006/12/03/translating-your-pythonpygtk-application/ .. vim:ft=rst:
