#94516 — Which GUI?

Hi all!

I am about to write an application (python3 in linux) that needs:

1. Display time series graphics dynamically changed as the application
runs, i.e. the graphics should reflect some internal variables states.

2. The same but for some network like diagrams. Basically nodes and
connections (straight lines). Nodes can have different colors depending
on their activity levels and also, together with connection lines, may
be created and deleted dynamically.

3. Interaction with the user (not sure yet, here).

4. Some modules may need to be moved to C++ in case of lack of enough
speed. So, the possibility of the GUI libs be used with C++ may be an
advantage. Anyway I can always stay in Python and write a C++ extension.

5. Several multi processor segments.

6. For now single user - possible but unlikely multi-user in the future.

Which technology is better?
matplotlib?
tkinter?
wxwidgets?
qt?
Web: ajax (I don't know much about this - need to learn), using cherrypy
or django?
Any other?

Thanks for any help or comments.

You may be interested in bokeh.
http://bokeh.pydata.org/en/latest/

It's a python interactive visualisation library.

Top-posting is (rightly) frowned upon in this group. Could you use
inline posting next time?


A3: Please.
Q3: Should I avoid top posting on this mailing list?

A2: Because, by reversing the order of a conversation, it leaves the
reader without much context, and makes them read a message in an
unnatural order.
Q2: Why is top posting irritating?

A1: It is the practice of putting your reply to a message before the
quoted message, instead of after the (trimmed) message.
Q1: What is top posting?

Meta is definitely NOT discouraged on this list, but it should be. 
Nothing like derailing an interesting thread with lectures on where to 
post. Aaaaand someone will chime in with a diatribe against Google 
groups...wait for it...wait for it...

To address the OP's query, I recommend Tkinter. Plays very nicely with C 
and C++.

Sadly - I don't think wxpython has been ported to python3 yet.

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.

Matplotlib apparently still has some issues with wxPhoenix. Not that Matplotlib is a necessity for the OP's application, but it could address some of the speed issues he was concerned about.

Hi .
I tested all. Now I think the PySide can more.

No python3!
Besides ... any differences to pyqt4?
Thanks

Chistopher.

Later I'll give a try to bokeh. I'll need to look better at web
applications first. I still don't know if dynamically changing is
possible without the bokeh server. Thanks Laura.

Thank you all who responded.
