I am in the process of writing an OPDS Client plugin for
Beam Ebooks. The source is at
github.
Following the examples in the development manual, I created a dialog (in
gui.py), in which I launch my OPDS client.
Code:
class DownloadDialog(QDialog):
def __init__(self, gui, icon, do_user_config):
QDialog.__init__(self, gui)
self.gui = gui
self.do_user_config = do_user_config
...
self.download_button = QPushButton('Download books', self)
self.download_button.clicked.connect(self.download)
self.layout.addWidget(self.download_button)
...
def download(self):
# My OPDS stuff is called here...
...
What I am observing is that the GUI of calibre hangs until I return from the download task. Is there something I should do, perhaps somehow periodically yield control back to a GUI thread or something? I must admit that I am not really clueful concerning PyQT
