I'm trying to get started with libgda in python (3.4). To import the Gda module i do from gi.repository import Gda

I want to use GdauiTreeStore but i don't know how to import the Gda-ui module...

Things like that didn't work:

  • from gi.repository import Gdaui
  • from gi.repository import GdaUi
  • from gi.repository import GdaUI
  • from gi.repository import Gda-ui
  • from gi.repository import Gda-Ui
  • from gi.repository import Gda-UI (and same with underscore instead of dash)

Are you sure libgda-ui (and its development package) are installed? Ever since introspection was added to libgda-ui in 2010, the GIR file has been called Gdaui-$version.gir.

Importing it using:

from gi.repository import Gdaui

works fine for me in Python 2 and 3.

Note that if the GIR file did contain a hyphen in its name, you might be able to import it using:

import importlib
importlib.import_module('gi.repository.Gda-ui')

though I have been unable to test this.
