Catalin George Festila: Python Qt5 - application with QML file.

The PyQt5 includes QML as a means of declaratively describing a user interface and is possible to write complete standalone QML applications.
Using QML file is different from the versions PyQt5 and old PyQt4.
Using this type of application can let you solve custom and style application.
I create a simple example but can create your python module with a class with new type of style.
This can be used with qmlRegisterType for your new python class type.
Let's see the example:
The main python file:

from PyQt5.QtNetwork import *
from PyQt5.QtQml import *
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt5.QtCore import *

class MainWin(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.eng = QQmlApplicationEngine()
        self.eng.load('win.qml')
        win = self.eng.rootObjects()[0]   
        win.show()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    import sys
    App = QApplication(sys.argv)
    Win = MainWin()
    sys.exit(App.exec_())

The QML file:

import QtQuick 2.2
import QtQuick.Controls 1.0
ApplicationWindow {
    id: main
    width: 640
    height: 480
    color: 'blue'
 }

The result is a blue window.
