`pants.contrib.qt`¶

Installation¶

pants.contrib.qt.install(app=None, timeout=0.02, engine=None)[source]¶

Creates a QTimer instance that will be triggered continuously to call Engine.poll(), ensuring that Pants remains responsive.

timeout	`0.02`	Optional. The maximum time to wait, in seconds, before running `Engine.poll()`.
engine		Optional. The `pants.engine.Engine` instance to use.
