PyBootstrapUI

PyBootstrapUI is a Python framework for building modern web interfaces, integrating HTML components, dynamic user interactions, and creating desktop applications powered by NW.js.


🚀 Key Features

  • 🖥️ Dynamic UI: Build interactive web pages with server-side callbacks for user events.
  • 💻 Desktop Applications: Launch web pages as standalone desktop apps using NW.js.
  • 📦 Prebuilt Components: Access a library of ready-to-use HTML components like buttons, headers, forms, modals, and more.
  • 🎨 Custom Templates: Use predefined themes or your own HTML templates for quick styling.
  • 🔗 Seamless Integration: Works well with Bootstrap (and other frameworks in the future) for modern web development.

Quick Start

📥 Installation

  1. Install the package:

    pip install pybootstrapui
  2. Install NW.js if you plan to build desktop applications:

    • Download NW.js.
    • Or use the PyBootstrapUI command:
      python -m pybootstrapui download %path_to_nwjs%

📝 Basic Usage

📄 Creating a Page

from pybootstrapui import Page
from pybootstrapui.components import Header, Button, BootstrapIcon
from pybootstrapui.modifiers import *

# Create a new page
page = Page(page_title="Hello PyBootstrapUI")

# Add components
page.add(Header(BootstrapIcon('box-seam-fill'), "Welcome to PyBootstrapUI!"))
page.add(Button(label="Click Me", modifier=ButtonModifier.color(ButtonStyle.PRIMARY)))

# Generate HTML
print(page.compile())

🔄 Adding Callbacks

import asyncio
from pybootstrapui import Page, ButtonCallbackContext
from pybootstrapui.components import Header, Button, ButtonStyle
from pybootstrapui.templates import Default


# Define a callback function
async def on_button_click(context: ButtonCallbackContext):
    context.show_spinner()
    
    print(f"Button clicked with ID: {context.id}")
    await asyncio.sleep(15)
    
    context.hide_spinner()


# Create a page with a button callback
page = Page(page_title="Callback Demo")
page.add(Header("Dynamic Callbacks Example"))
page.add(Button("Click Me", modifier=ButtonModifier.color(ButtonStyle.SUCCESS), on_click=on_button_click))

# Run as a desktop application
page.run_in_desktop(
    nwjs_path="/path/to/nwjs",
    title="Callback App",
    width=800,
    height=600
)

🖥️ Running as a Desktop App

Use the Page.run_in_desktop method to run your page as a desktop application.

from pybootstrapui import Page
from pybootstrapui.components import Header

# Create the page
page = Page(page_title="My App")

# Add components
page.add(Header("This is a desktop app!"))

# Run the app
page.run_in_desktop(
    nwjs_path="/path/to/nwjs",
    icon="icon.png",
    title="My Desktop App",
    width=1024,
    height=768
)

📦 Easy Packaging

Easily package and distribute your PyBootstrapUI applications with minimal effort!

🛠️ Step 1: Create a New Project

Generate a fully templated PyBootstrapUI project structure:

python -m pybootstrapui create MyProject

⚙️ Step 2: Build Your Application

Package your application into a standalone build:

python -m pybootstrapui build MyProject
  • Dependencies Management: All required packages are bundled.
  • Optimized Build Process: Ensures efficient and clean packaging.
  • Platform-Specific Binaries: Create executables for Windows, macOS, or Linux seamlessly.
