QDARKSTYLE.UTILS(1)

✨ NAME ✨

qdarkstyle.utils — bestie, it's the script that processes QRC files 💅 (also it lives in section 1 of the manual, the User Commands girlies, if you were wondering 🎀)

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so. the usage is giving this:

usage: qdarkstyle.utils [-h] [--qrc_dir QRC_DIR]
       [--create {pyqt5,pyqt6,pyside2,pyside6,qtpy,pyqtgraph,qt,qt5,all}]
       [--watch]

literally what it does: Script to process QRC files — it converts .qrc into _rc.py and .rcc. that's the whole vibe 🦋

and the way it does that is it tries to compile the qrc file with these tools, one by one:

• pyrcc4 for PyQt4 and PyQtGraph (Python)
• pyrcc5 for PyQt5 and QtPy (Python)
• pyside-rcc for PySide (Python)
• pyside2-rcc for PySide2 (Python)
• rcc for Qt4 and Qt5 (C++)

🫶 heads up: after you run this, go delete the compiled files you don't wanna use. manually. yes, by hand, bestie, nobody's doing it for you 💀

• --qrc_dir QRC_DIR — QRC file directory, relative to current directory. so like, where the qrc files are at, from wherever you're standing rn 💜
• --create {pyqt,pyqt5,pyside,pyside2,qtpy,pyqtgraph,qt,qt5,all} — Choose which one would be generated. pick your fighter 🎀 (yes bestie, this list and the usage list up top are literally different lists — that's just what the page says, don't @ me 🌈)
• --watch, -w — Watch for file changes. main character energy, it just keeps watching 👀
