I am building my first GUI in pyQT5 and I am pretty new to Python programming.
I am trying to use a set a Variable in one Qthread and using it in another. I figured that pyqtsignal was the way to do it. But i can't get it to work.
class GetCurrentSpeed(QThread):
gpsLatSig = pyqtSignal(str)
def __init__(self):
QThread.__init__(self)
def __del__(self):
self.wait()
def run(self):
while True:
####Print a value in lon and lat so that its never empty
lon = "18"
lat = "59"
###Get Current Latitude and Longitude
if report['class'] == 'TPV':
if hasattr(report, 'lat'):
lat = (str(report.lat))
self.gpsLatSig.emit(lat)
else:
lat = "59"
print("No GPS Lock")
self.gpsLatSig.emit(lat)
class PosSignals(QObject):
GetGps = GetCurrentSpeed()
def connectsig(self):
self.GetGps.gpsLatSig[str].connect(self.handle_string)
@pyqtSlot(str)
def handle_string(self, text):
print text
class OverPassApi(QThread):
GetGps = GetCurrentSpeed()
def __init__(self):
QThread.__init__(self)
self.b = PosSignals()
def __del__(self):
self.wait()
def run(self):
while True:
self.b.connectsig()
print b.handle_string()
api = overpy.Overpass()
result = api.query("""<osm-script>
<query type="way">
<around lat="%s" lon="%s" radius="30"/>
<has-kv k="name" v=""/>
</query>
<print/>
</osm-script>""" % (b.handle_string, 18))
This is just a part of the program and this might contain other errors since i have worked hard to get this to work.
My Issue is that I get the output "<main.PosSignals object at 0x72f0c210>" when i try to print the text in the handle function when i remove self like:
@pyqtSlot(str)
def handle_string(text):
print text
and when I keep self I need to provide an argument to the print b.handle_string() which then ofcourse only prints the argument I add.
What I want to achieve is to use the lat variable created in GetCurrentSpeed(QThread): and use it in class OverPassApi(QThread):
