PyQt5 QDateEdit - Setting Date Programmatically

PyQt5 QDateEdit - Setting Date Programmatically

To set the date programmatically for a QDateEdit widget in PyQt5, you can use the setDate() method. This method takes a QDate object as its argument.

Here's a step-by-step guide:

  1. First, install PyQt5 (if you haven't already):

    pip install pyqt5

  2. Create a basic PyQt5 application with a QDateEdit widget:

    import sys from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QVBoxLayout, QDateEdit from PyQt5.QtCore import QDate class AppDemo(QWidget): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.setWindowTitle('QDateEdit Demo') self.setLayout(QVBoxLayout()) self.dateEdit = QDateEdit(self) self.layout().addWidget(self.dateEdit) # Set the date programmatically self.setDateProgrammatically() def setDateProgrammatically(self): # Set the date to 1st January 2022 self.dateEdit.setDate(QDate(2022, 1, 1)) app = QApplication(sys.argv) demo = AppDemo() demo.show() sys.exit(app.exec_())

In this example, we've created a simple PyQt5 application with a QDateEdit widget. We've defined a method setDateProgrammatically() to set the date of the QDateEdit widget programmatically. In this method, we've used the setDate() method of QDateEdit and passed a QDate object with a desired date to set the widget's date.
