Kos / pyvvm

An MVVM microframework

What's this?

A library designed to help with Model-View-ViewModel programming in Python. Provides helpers to easily write nice models (especially view-models) that can be automatically hooked up into UI (with two-side data binding) with no redundant glue code.

What comes in the box?

• A spec for the extended property interface.
• A flexible implementation thereof, likely to cover your scenario.
• UI data binding code for PySide (Qt) that uses the interface.
• Examples

How does it look like?

Status

WIP. The thing is written and field-tested inside a larger project; I'm extracting, refactoring and documenting.

Tests

Yes.

FAQ

• Can I make my own implementation for the property interface?
  • Yup. Go ahead if the provided doesn't suit you.
• Can I use standard Python properties or methods in my models?
  • Yup.
• And regular fields?
  • Hmm.
• Can I use any UI toolkit?
  • Yes, I think so. Write the part that connects the UI to the view-models.
