Python Qt5 : Parse files and show image with QPixmap .

This tutorial is about how to create a simple script in python with a few features:

You can see I used these python packages: argparse, PIL, glob, io, PyQt5 to fulfill the issue.

The PIL python package is used to use PNG images.

The argparse python package is used to get inputs from arguments.

The glob python package is used to parse folders and files.

The io python package is used to open images:

The PyQt5 python package is used to show images on canvas:

This is the source code in python I used to parse a folder with images and show one image:

import os
import io
import sys
import glob

from PIL import Image
from PIL import UnidentifiedImageError

from PyQt5.QtGui import QPixmap
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QMainWindow, QApplication, QLabel

import argparse
from pathlib import Path

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()

parser.add_argument("files_path", type=Path, help='PATH of folder with files ')
parser.add_argument('-p','--print_files', action='store_true', 
    help='Print files from folder ')
parser.add_argument('-s','--show', action='store_true', 
    help='Show image in PyQt5 canvas!')
args = vars(parser.parse_args())

p = parser.parse_args()
print(p.files_path, type(p.files_path), p.files_path.exists())
print(p.show)
files = os.listdir(p.files_path)
file_list = []
image_list = []
bad_files_list =[]

if args['print_files']: 
    print("These are files from folder "+str(p.files_path))
    for f in file_list:
	    print(f)

images_ext = str(Path(p.files_path))+'/*.png'
print("images_ext: "+images_ext)
for filename in glob.glob(images_ext): #assuming png
    try:
        f = open(filename, 'rb')
        file = io.BytesIO(f.read())
        im = Image.open(file)
        image_list.append(filename)
        print(str(len(image_list))+" good file is"+filename)
    except Image.UnidentifiedImageError:
        bad_files_list.append(str(p.files_path)+"/"+str(filename))

for f in bad_files_list:
	print("bad file is : " + f)


if args['show']:
    value = input("Please enter the index of PNG image :\n")
    try:
        int(value)
        print("Image number select default : " + value)      
        value = int(value)
        if value &lt= len(image_list):
            value = int(value)
        else:
            print("The number image selected is greater then len of list images!")
            value = len(image_list)
    except:
        print("This is not a number, I set first image number.")
        value = 1

    class MainWindow(QMainWindow):

        def __init__(self):
            super(MainWindow, self).__init__()
            self.title = "Image Viewer"
            self.setWindowTitle(self.title)

            label = QLabel(self)
            pixmap = QPixmap(image_list[int(value)])
            label.setPixmap(pixmap)
            self.setCentralWidget(label)
            self.resize(pixmap.width(), pixmap.height())

    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    w = MainWindow()
    w.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

These are the output of the script:

Python 3.6.9 : My colab tutorials - part 014.

Here we come to the 16th notebook created with the colab utility from Google.

In this notebook, I will show you how you can view a dataset of images.

See the next image with a few of the shapes of the dataset:

You can find the full source code on my GitHub account.

Python 3.6.9 : My colab tutorials - part 013.

In this tutorial created with the online tool google colab, we exemplified again how to access the IMDB dataset, which contains from the index point of view and what is the correspondence with the IMDB reviews, as well as how to work and create several sets of data for trains and what is the difference between them.

You can see the source code in python on this notebook.

Python 3.6.9 : My colab tutorials - part 012.

The purpose of this tutorial is to show the IMDB review dataset.

You can find the source code on my GitHub account here.

Python 3.6.9 : My colab tutorials - part 011.

The purpose of this tutorial is to use the google TPU device together with Keras.

You need to set from the Edit menu and set for the notebook the device called TPU.

Python 3.9.1 : ABC - Abstract Base Classes - part 001.

Abstract classes are classes that contain one or more abstract methods.

By default, Python does not provide abstract classes.

Python comes with a module that provides the base for defining Abstract Base Classes (named ABC).

An abstract class can be considered as a blueprint for other classes.

By defining an abstract base class, you can define a common API for a set of subclasses.

A class that is derived from an abstract class cannot be instantiated unless all of its abstract methods are overridden.

>>> from abc import ABC

...         return iter(self)
... 
>>> Test_ABC.register(Foo)
...

Let's see an example:

from abc import ABC, abstractmethod
 
class Vehicle(ABC):
    @abstractmethod
    def action(self):
        pass

class Air(Vehicle):
    # overriding abstract method
    def action(self):
        print("this flies in the air")
 
class Ground(Vehicle):
    # overriding abstract method
    def action(self):
        print("this running on the field")

class Civil(Ground):
    def action(self):
        print("Civil class - running on the field")

# Can't instantiate abstract class with abstract method action, don't use it
# abc = Vehicle()

abc = Air()
abc.action()

abc = Ground()
abc.action()

abc = Civil()
abc.action()

print( issubclass(Civil, Vehicle))
print( isinstance(Civil(), Vehicle))

This is the result:

[mythcat@desk PythonProjects]$ python3.9 ABC_001.py 
this flies in the air
this running on the field
Civil class - running on the field
True
True
