Python Programming Tutorial - 44 - Installing wxPython

[ethanville]

FL Studio ftw.

[tyleraverette]

will this work with 2.7.2?

[TheComputerSage]

44 videos later, and I learn what I wanted to know for so long!!!

[Geebsee]

For Debian-based GNU/Linux (Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, etc.): sudo apt-get install wxPython

For RPM-based GNU/Linux (Fedora): sudo yum install wxPython

[Baseball3456789]

can someone please tell me how to do this on a mac i have OS X 10.6.8 and i have been looking for a week and no one will explain how to do this on a mac PLEASE HELP

thanks

p.s. bucky your the man dude

[xRockDaFunkx]

I was also having an issue, but this helped me:

import wxversion

wxversion.select('2.8')

import wx

app=wx.App()

win=wx.Frame(None)

win.Show()

app.MainLoop()

P.S

2.8 is my wxpython version that I use in compatibility with my 2.7... The code before Buckys makes sure that it imports correctly... Good luck guys! It was frustrating for a min, hope this helps some of you though...

[ckingz850587]

@xRockDaFunkx thanks man u save a huge headache i love Bucky,just wish he would go into more detailed. But regardless i could never thank him enough for what hes doing.

[zokonil302]

i have a problem whit this whenever i try to make a wx "program" i cant it started when i tried the button and it gives me the error then i tried to copy everthing that i saw and it still didnt work i changed python to 2.6 that wat bucky was using and it still gives me the same error

[tucker046]

all i get is an error on line 1 and 2 saying no attribute 'App' and everything is exactly like bucky says...... help

[TheOmegaguys]

Wxii12 on suggested results?

OH MY GOD YOU LIVE NEAR ME!

[cxaxnxexs]

bucky don't listen to the complainers on youtube. you have spoiled them rotten! please come out with more python tutorials pleease please pleease :) :) you are such a good teacher!

[shai1978ben]

HEY DEAR BUCK

WHAY YOU DONT SHER YOUR TUTORIALS WITH US ANYMOR

???

PLEASE HELP MY TO LEARN

(:THANK YOU

[ricardotheohfamous]

this tutorial is 2 years old and needs to be updated because i don't know what tool kit to download

[theprofits13]

Everyone that is having trouble. First check your version of Python. Next download 32 bit for the version. (Even if you have 64 bit computer). Thumbs this up so people can see.

[Blitzbok]

@theprofits13 I tried that but it's still not working! :(

[TeamINSTINKED]

tbf this is probably the worst of all your tutorials and it has completely ruined the tutorial. You need to go into more detail when making install tutorials not just "click on that and install it".

Your tutorials are very good but this on was NOT your best work.

[gogodogs1]

thank you this is beast

[bboygreco1]

is it the same if i run it on a mac with python and wxPython installed?

[spitfiremw2]

i get : ImportError: No module named wx

[Aulakh750]

Thank you Bucky!

[wallinbear]

duude where is tutorial 45?? :O

[logmeinwtf]

@wallinbear check watch?v=RHvhfjVpSdE

[therebel11coder]

@wallinbear

look for the wxPython tutorials, they are the continue series

[TheXRealXBrapp]

It's not working... Was something updated?

[Stirni94]

Why not using Tkinter, thenewboston?

[TheQuickscopezPro]

Haha I fixed my problem..... I know what I did wrong....

[PsykopatSoldat]

i just tried this out, and had my problems until i found out that none in the win=wx.Frame(None) has to be None not none

[Amitkuliyal]

@inuasha880 sorry buddy i didn't get you...

[Amitkuliyal]

what about 45th tutorial....

[inuasha880]

@Amitkuliyal it goes back to 1 because it is no longer python it is wxpython

[paulceltics]

end

[hcstalnaker]

I got this first time, is it really that difficult? follow the directions EXACTLY like bucky does, and listen to what he tells you to do. For everyone that wants another tutorial, go to bucky's page and start the wxpython tutorial number 1

[TheAmazingPuppeteer]

Did you even make a 45th tutorial? If you did, it's not in the playlist

[PythonRules]

does anyone know where to find wxpython except sourceforge?sourceforge is forbidden in my country.

[daeheadshot]

@PythonRules use a proxy like unblocker (DOT) biz

[PythonRules]

@daeheadshot thanks.but the problem is that sourceforge is not forbidden!!!!!!downloading from it is forbidden by the website.does the proxy solve that?(new to computers,sorry)

[daeheadshot]

@PythonRules if you download it through the proxy i would think that it would work.

[PythonRules]

@daeheadshot thanks,i'll give it a try.

[freeman8115]

ok i keep getting error that the app is not defined what do i do 

[TeamINSTINKED]

@freeman8115 same have u found out yet ???

[EvilzElmoz]

omg i finally got it to work after downloading and removing it 50 times cuz i couldnt find the right one

[MrFirminVernege]

o yeah it works

[Ultimatecheat]

If you got an error download the 32bit version and it should work!

[ecvsio]

Bye Bye bucky.......

[critten835]

Hey, i'm having problems with the download because the website is completely different than the one this video is showing... I thought I downloaded the right thing but when I put in the code in python it said this: "ImportError: No module named wx"... Help?

[delinaciye]

import wx

ImportError: No module named wx

[Svidrigailoff]

For everyone that gets the 'no module wx' message, I solved it by uninstalling wx and reinstalling it without having Python open.Hope that helps!

[wellsheart100]

@Svidrigailoff thanks a lot dude ! it works :))

[huntercross14]

please make Django tutorials

[flaregirl01]

@blacksiddis

If you name you script wx.py it won't run. Make sure you name it something else.

[lellan1337]

i get an error after it have installed

[UserHuge]

He is soo lame...you can easiely see from the nuber of toolbars in his browser and Desktop icons ;j

He's also using the built-in editor, LOL;j

[1AK3R5for3v3r]

WOW FTW

[KRSEternity]

My issue is when i put in the code for the frame and button.When i press F5 the frame immediately start to load then the bar on top says NOT Responding. Why is that? I deleted wx and downloaded it again and still it gave me the same error message.

[blitzkrieg6778]

it says "there is no module named wx" what do i do???

[sudeeptinku]

@blitzkrieg6778 make sure you saved the file in default python26 or phython27 folder

[TheGymPress]

A WoW player! nice! Great tuts bro, totally awesome (1-43), time to learn some more keep it coming. Thanks so much

[ianh12399]

Look at the photoshop files, "boobs" "boobs2"!!!!

[blacksiddis]

Please help! I installed as instructed in the tutorial but the interactive python shell claims there is no module with that name even though it is in its path (import sys & print sys.path)

Tried both 32bit and 64bit. I got the unicode one for Python version 2.7.x

[blacksiddis]

I get an error saying there is no module by that name.. :(

[ChaosCombo1]

LOl pause at 0:52 , one of the photoshop icons is named boobs :D

[AlejandroBjorg]

Any plans of making Python 3 tuts?

[chewtaggeer]

Does it work with 3.2

[kanchanazzz]

But there is no wxpython for Linux

[Shleeshtak]

@kanchanazzz

I thought Wxpython was included in most linux distros Ubuntu seems to have it by default as far as I know

[Shleeshtak]

@kanchanazzz

I have confirmed now that I actually created the file in this tut, that yes WxPython is included in Ubuntu Maverick 10.10 probably all Ubuntu that has python 2.4 and higher will have it

[Ethan15811]

@Zeldakitteh I guess it does, but I can show you the codes with a photo or something, they mainly have def's,print's and some checks and stuff. I understand you not trusting me, especially since it's sounds kinda bad, but if you wanna see a picture of my codes, I will be happy too.

[Ethan15811]

I am looking for a python programmer that has no experience with building programs. I want some help with my text based game.

[Zeldakitteh]

@Ethan15811 That does sound a bit suspicious. Are you sure you are not trying to get someone to run harmful code?

[sniksder21]

im using python 3.2 what should i do?will they come out with a new version?thanks

[DisturbedTK]

@sniksder21 You shouldn't be using 3.2 - it's just not supported enough ._. I'd downgrade to 2.7 if I were you

[sniksder21]

im using python 3.2 what should i do?will they come out wit a new version?thanks

[yiopply]

there is no wxpython download for the newest version of python..

:..(

[dcs1892]

@yiopply use python 2.7 I'm using it and it works beautifully

[paradoxinversion]

Hoss, boss, badass, whatever you like to call him, Bucky's the freakin' man.

[NesRetroGamer]

It says "no module wx" What do I Do? PLEASE HELP!!!

[Kagda96]

@NesRetroGamer I had the same problem. I am using Ubuntu myself. When i ran the :

"import wx

app=wx.App()

win=wx.Frame(None)

win.Show()

app.MainLoop()

"

Code in idle. It got that error. But i ran it in Terminal (CMD for Ubuntu) and it worked...soooo idk man

[zoomer328]

@NesRetroGamer do remember to put .py at the end of the file hope it helped :)

[The419Clan]

@zoomer328 I did put .py at the end of it, that didnt work.

[TeamINSTINKED]

@NesRetroGamer Same problem have u found out yet ???

[FHomeBrew]

I use tkinter. Also, how can I make it look like the native GUI widgets?

[araullo]

[ZGfang]

[devilmaycry6400]

[ecvsio]

@devilmaycry6400 same -.-

[GJH105775]

import wx

app=wx.App()

win=wx.Frame(None)

win.Show()

app.Mainloop()

[eallik]

I love your tutorials, but there's one crucial topic missing though, a tutorial about PEP8.

[mingming2006]

Can someone help me on fixing that annoying ImportError message after installing wxPython? Keeps on saying wx doesn't exist. Need wxPython to work to help me program my final year project, so it's pretty vital to me. I've followed bucky's videos step by step and even went to download the same versions of Python and wxPython as Bucky and this still has proven unhelpful - including updating them to the latest releases.

Any help on this would be very appreciated!

Many thanks,

mingming2006

[Arciijs]

OMFG ITS WORKINNNNNNGNNGNGNGNGNG

[Arciijs]

[LVCMS]

@circlekmomofthree - Yeah, I was all behind 3.2.1 and it was working fine until Modules and GUI. Oh well, I'm using the debugged stable version of Python 2.6.6 as we speak, just switched over.

[circlekmomofthree]

@NukaColaQuantumVault yah im learning c++ now

[CeTormenter]

Nice tutorials. I also love the "easter egg" in this video. (For those of you that didn't see it read the name of the two photoshop pictures on his desktop.)

[CapitalI6699]

When I try to import wx it gives me an error that says there's something wrong with __initi__.py line 45 and _core.py or something

 CreateProcess failed: code 2.

The system cannot find the file specified

:( what should I do?

[luminumx]

@reddirtshow what I did is when it asked what folder i wanted to install it in I went to browse and then python then Lib and then site packages and installed it there. Then it worked just fine. Hope that makes since.

[gabelossus]

NameError: name 'wx' is not defined

[andr3asstr0mb3rg]

this fucking shit isn't working for me, I do everything he says but when i run it there is a Python shell window popping up and it says ImportError: No module named wx!!

[MisterGolfingGuy]

@andr3asstr0mb3rg Check what version of python you have. (examples: 2.5, 2.6, or 2.7) On the website, there are 3 columns to download from. Download from the column that fits your python version. (2.5 is left, 2.6 middle, 2.7 right)

[andr3asstr0mb3rg]

@MisterGolfingGuy aight thanks =)

[iExD]

Yay! The GUI comes... I knew it that it was the right choice for me to not quit learning Python... (i hate non-gui programming) and I also like this vid. because you made more tutorials... :)

[Kyle1424210]

Hey, Would really appreciateif you made more tutorial's on python :)

[turonkik]

lol "Most of you guys probably have the 32 ...unless you have 64 one " :)) that cracked me up

[azntony619]

[badboy00z]

Love your tutorials. How often do you upload them? When will #45 be posted?

[TheEggert]

@badboy00z

I know it's been five months, but if anyone else still is wondering, you're expected to go on with his wxPython tutorials, because as he mentions in the first wx, this list was getting too long ;)

[amr1farouk]

@badboy00z guys i want him to finish the after effect tutorials, dont you? thumb up
