如何在PyQt5类上寻求帮助？

Question

Where can I find details on a specific class of PyQt5. Surely I can use the help(module) command within Python IDLE but it doesn't provide all necessary information.

For example: How do I find about all possible functions and their respective arguments available to QWidget class from PyQt5.QtWidgets module?

Answer 1

There is the API reference , but the actual class description pages only link to the respective C++ class page. I'm afraid that is your best option for now, until the PyQt maintainers update their documentation (which is based on the C++ docs anyway).

Answer 2

It's a little buried, but there is Qt for Python / PyQt5 / PySide2 documentation online:

• Main Documentation Page
• Main Wiki Page (how to get started, what to download, etc.

Examples:

• The PySide2.QtCore.Qt module
• The "All Classes" page for Qt5, accessed through a Qt 5.13.0 link currently
