GUI Design From A Text Editor. Designing a graphical User interface requires knowledge of things like toolkit libraries, platform context etc. At least I think it does. I am a relatively new programmer in that I have near zero experience in GUI programming outside a web page. So when I explore how to design an application which works outside a command line or a browser window, I feel tremendously out of my depth. When I see the programming interfaces to these interfaces (QT, GTK, TK, ncurses, HTML) my bewilderment reaches even greater heights. Sure there are clever things like wxGlade, and QT Designer etc. These are tools that also require more skill than I possess; I am old and I can just about use a text editor as an IDE. So what is needed? I need a GUI designer that: -.

Is there a tool like PySimpleGUI for Perl?

QUESTION

Is there a tool like PySimpleGUI for Perl?

Asked 2019-Dec-27 at 18:05

I am looking for a Perl GUI tool that is as simple as PySimpleGUI. PySimpleGUI claims to be a good choice for things like this:

add the convenience of a simple GUI onto a CLI Perl script.
share some cool Perl tools I run from the terminal but give the (internal) users a simple GUI
share my Perl programs with friends or family (that aren't so comfortable with the CLI)
run a program in the system tray (potentially)
looking for a GUI package that is "supported" and is being constantly developed and improved
good documentation and examples

Those are my requirements and because PySimpleGUI offers all that, I gave it a try for a project. I liked it. That prompted to to try to find something like it for Perl.

I'm running perl 5, version 30 on Linux with KDE.

So far I only found:

saiftynet/GUIDeFATE: GUI Design From A Text Editor https://github.com/saiftynet/GUIDeFATE

I was not able to get the examples to run, and the supplied documentation doesn't meet my requirements. (I will ask about my specific problems with GUIDeFATE in a separate question, but GUIDeFATE is not actively developed like PySimpleGUI.)

I have used Kdialog for bash scripts in the past and it is not what I have in mind.

Is there an equivalent of PySimpleGUI for Perl?

I was not able to find anything like PySimpleGUI in Perl. I think you need to build the gui based on the full api of the toolkit (and not a simplified version of the api like PySimpleGUI). I know that the Gtk3 and Tk toolkits are actively used. There are also the Wx and QtCore4 toolkits, but these are less used and not actively maintained in my opinion.

Here is an example in Gtk3:
