(Py)QtWaitingSpinner is a highly configurable, custom (Py)Qt widget for showing "waiting", or
"loading", spinner icons in (Py)Qt applications.

Based on [pyqtspinner](https://github.com/fbjorn/QtWaitingSpinner), by [fbjorn](https://github.com/fbjorn), which is a fork of [z3ntu](https://github.com/z3ntu/QtWaitingSpinner)'s port of [snowwlex](https://github.com/snowwlex)'s [QtWaitingSpinner](https://github.com/snowwlex/QtWaitingSpinner).

The spinners below are all (Py)QtWaitingSpinner widgets, differing only in their configuration:

# Installation

`pip install pyqtwaitingspinner`

---

# Dependencies

- [PyYAML](https://pypi.org/project/PyYAML/)
- [Qt6](https://www.qt.io/product/qt6) & [PyQt6](https://pypi.org/project/PyQt6/)

---

# Configuration

The following properties can all be controlled directly through their corresponding
properties:

- Color of the widget
- "Roundness" of the lines
- Speed (rotations per second)
- Number of lines to be drawn
- Line length
- Line width
- Radius of the spinner's "dead space" or inner circle
- The percentage fade of the "trail"
- The minimum opacity of the "trail"
- Whether to center the spinner on its parent widget
- Whether or not to disable the parent widget whilst the spinner is spinning
- The direction in which the spinner will spin

---

# Usage

## *Spinner*

The following code will create a simple spinner that

- (1) blocks all user input to the main application for as long as the spinner is active
- (2) automatically centers itself on its parent widget every time "start" is called
- (3) makes use of the default shape, size and color settings.

```python
spin_pars = SpinnerParameters(disable_parent_when_spinning=True)
spinner = WaitingSpinner(parent, spin_pars)
```

## *Configurator*

The graphical Configurator allows you edit the parameters of the spinner, and view the changes live.

The Configurator can be launched with:

```
spinner-conf
```

<!-- ![configuration](static/configurator.png "Configurator") -->
![configuration](https://gitlab.com/Batticus/pyqtwaitingspinner/-/raw/main/static/configurator.png?ref_type=heads "Configurator")

Once the spinner's appearance is to your liking, you can either copy (and view) the initialization parameters for the construction of a `SpinnerParameters` object, or you can save the spinner as a YAML configuration and load it from within a `WaitingSpinner` class.

### Show Init Args

Pressing the **`Show Init Args`** button will show the initialization arguments for the equivalent **`SpinnerParameters`** object, and will make a copy to the clipboard, ***including newlines and whitespace***.

<!-- ![show-init-args](static/show-init-args.png "Show Init Args") -->
![show-init-args](https://gitlab.com/Batticus/pyqtwaitingspinner/-/raw/main/static/show-init-args.png?ref_type=heads "Show Init Args")
```python
SpinnerParameters(
    roundness=100.0,
    trail_fade_percentage=67.0,
    number_of_lines=8,
    line_length=40,
    line_width=40,
    inner_radius=32,
    revolutions_per_second=1.0,
    color=QColor(0, 170, 0),
    minimum_trail_opacity=1.0,
    spin_direction=SpinDirection.COUNTERCLOCKWISE,
    center_on_parent=True,
    disable_parent_when_spinning=False,
)
```

### Save Config
Pressing the **`Save`** button will open a dialog allowing you to select the location, and name, in which to save the configured spinner. The outputted **YAML** file can then be loaded like so:

```python
spinner = WaitingSpinner(parent)
spinner.load("path/to/spinner.yaml")
```
