lircrcMaker - a GUI for lirc managing

guisacouto · 2010-07-31 18:48:27

I know this isnt very arch way, but I just wanted to learn python and developing GUI's so I just thought about something simple to start. I normally only use C and Java, without any GUI toolkit, so this is kind of a test.

-> .lircrc editor (add/remove) so you cand bind the remote keys to functions
-> start and stop Lirc with module start

import wx
import os
import fileinput
import re
import types


bindslist = []
module = ""

configfile = os.getenv("HOME")
configfile = configfile + "/.lircrc"

class Binds:
    def __init__(self, remote, button, config): 
        self._remote = remote
        self._button = button
        self._config = config

class MyFrame(wx.Frame):
    
    def __init__(self,parent, id, title):
        wx.Frame.__init__(self,parent,id,title,size=(370, 350), style=wx.DEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE & ~ (wx.RESIZE_BORDER | wx.RESIZE_BOX | wx.MAXIMIZE_BOX))
        
        menuBar = wx.MenuBar()
        menu = wx.Menu()
        helpMenu = wx.Menu()

        menu.Append(101, "Start Lirc Daemon")
        menu.Append(102, "Stop Lirc Daemon")
        menu.Append(103, "Exit")
        
        helpMenu.Append(104, "About")
        menuBar.Append(menu, "Options")
        menuBar.Append(helpMenu, "Help")
        self.SetMenuBar(menuBar)


#listctrl


        self.lstctrl = wx.ListCtrl(self, 150, pos=(10, 140), style=wx.LC_REPORT, size=(360, 135))
        self.lstctrl.InsertColumn(0, 'Remote')
        self.lstctrl.InsertColumn(1, 'Button')
        self.lstctrl.InsertColumn(2, 'Execute')
        self.lstctrl.SetColumnWidth(0, 125)
        self.lstctrl.SetColumnWidth(1, 125)
        self.lstctrl.SetColumnWidth(2, 125)


#Buttons

        removeButton = wx.Button(self, id=132, pos=(270, 290), name="Remove", label="Remove")
        self.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.RemoveBind, id=132)

        
#Static text labels

        
        stRemote = wx.StaticText(self, 111, "Remote Module", pos=(10, 10))
        stButton = wx.StaticText(self, 112, "Button", pos=(10, 40))
        stConfig = wx.StaticText(self, 113, "Execute This", pos=(10, 70))


#ComboBox's for getting the input from user

        self.button.Append("Play")
        self.button.Append("Stop")
        self.button.Append("Skip")
        self.button.Append("Replay")
        self.config = wx.TextCtrl(self, 123, pos=(100, 70), size=(150, 20))
