Python Qt5 : QtSql with QSQLITE example.

Today I will show you how to deal with QtSql and QSQLITE and show a table into an MDI (Multiple Document Interface) application.
First I create tree scripts named:

• PyQt5_connection.py - create a memory database and add value into table;
• PyQt5_view.py - create a model for the table;
• PyQt5_show.py - show the MDI application with the model table database;

The source code is commented and is simple to understand.
Let's see this python scripts:
First is PyQt5_connection.py:

from PyQt5 import QtWidgets, QtSql
from PyQt5.QtSql import *

def createConnection():
    db = QtSql.QSqlDatabase.addDatabase("QSQLITE")
    db.setDatabaseName(":memory:")
    if not db.open():
        QtWidgets.QMessageBox.critical(None, "Cannot open memory database",
                             "Unable to establish a database connection.\n\n"
                             "Click Cancel to exit.", QtWidgets.QMessageBox.Cancel)
        return False
    query = QtSql.QSqlQuery()
    #print (os.listdir("."))
    query.exec("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS Websites")
    query.exec("CREATE TABLE Websites (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, " +     "website VARCHAR(20))")
    query.exec("INSERT INTO Websites (website) VALUES('python-catalin.blogspot.com')")
    query.exec("INSERT INTO Websites (website) VALUES('catalin-festila.blogspot.com')")
    query.exec("INSERT INTO Websites (website) VALUES('free-tutorials.org')")
    query.exec("INSERT INTO Websites (website) VALUES('graphic-3d.blogspot.com')")
    query.exec("INSERT INTO Websites (website) VALUES('pygame-catalin.blogspot.com')")
    return True

The next is the PyQt5_view.py python script with the model of the table from database:

from PyQt5 import QtWidgets, QtSql

from PyQt5 import QtWidgets, QtSql

class WebsitesWidget(QtWidgets.QWidget):
    def __init__(self, parent=None):
        super(WebsitesWidget, self).__init__(parent)
 # this layout_box can be used if you need more widgets 
 # I used just one named WebsitesWidget
        layout_box = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout(self)
 #
        my_view = QtWidgets.QTableView()
 # put viwe in layout_box area
        layout_box.addWidget(my_view)
 # create a table model
        my_model = QtSql.QSqlTableModel(self)
        my_model.setTable("Websites")
        my_model.select()
 #show the view with model  
        my_view.setModel(my_model)
        my_view.setItemDelegate(QtSql.QSqlRelationalDelegate(my_view))

The last python script named PyQt5_show.py will create the MDI application and will show databese table:

from PyQt5 import QtWidgets, QtSql
from PyQt5_connection import createConnection
# this will import any classes from PyQt5_view script
from PyQt5_view import WebsitesWidget

class MainWindow(QtWidgets.QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self, parent=None):
        super(MainWindow, self).__init__(parent)

        self.MDI = QtWidgets.QMdiArea()
        self.setCentralWidget(self.MDI)

        SubWindow1 = QtWidgets.QMdiSubWindow()
        SubWindow1.setWidget(WebsitesWidget())
        self.MDI.addSubWindow(SubWindow1)
        SubWindow1.show()
 # you can add more widgest 
        #SubWindow2 = QtWidgets.QMdiSubWindow()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    import sys

    app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)

    if not createConnection():
        print("not connect")
        sys.exit(-1)
    w = MainWindow()
    w.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

This is the result of the running PyQt5_show.py python script:
