Usage

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QVBoxLayout
from QLed import QLed

class Widget(QWidget):
    def __init__(self ,parent=None, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(parent, **kwargs)
        
        l=QVBoxLayout(self)
        self._led=QLed(self, onColour=QLed.Red, shape=QLed.Circle)
        self._led.value=True
        l.addWidget(self._led)
        
if __name__=="__main__":
    from sys import argv, exit

The simple example above creates a single, circular LED that is red in colour when on.

The available shapes are:

Circle
Round
Square
Triangle

The available colours are:

The LED is switched on and off by settings the boolean value property (either directly or via the setter function setValue(bool)).

C++ port

Hi-

I just ported your QLed to C++. Do you care having it in your repo here? Or should create my own? Either way is fine with me.

New Colors

First of all, thanks for the work! It's a great widget.

So I forked your repo a couple days ago and modified the colors except yellow. You may use them if you would ever thinking about looking for new colors.

colours = {Red:    (0xFF, 0x00, 0x00),
           Green : (0x87, 0xD7, 0x00),
           Yellow: (0xd2, 0xcd, 0x00),
           Grey  : (0x26, 0x26, 0x26),
           Orange: (0xFF, 0x9F, 0x00),
           Purple: (0xAF, 0x00, 0xFF),
           Blue  : (0x00, 0xD7, 0xFF)}
