What is the feature
Replace PyQt5 with PyQt6 throughout the application.
Why we need the feature
Upgrading to PyQt6 ensures that the application remains up-to-date with the latest features, improvements, and security fixes. PyQt6 provides better support for newer Python versions and leverages the advancements in Qt6. This upgrade can lead to improved performance, enhanced stability, and access to new functionalities that are not available in PyQt5. Keeping the dependencies current also makes future maintenance easier and prepares the codebase for further updates.
How to implement and why
Update Dependencies:
requirements.txt
andrequirements.pytorch.txt
to replacePyQt5
withPyQt6
.Update Import Statements:
game_manager
directory.from PyQt5 import ...
tofrom PyQt6 import ...
.Refactor Code for API Changes:
Qt.AlignCenter
becomesQt.AlignmentFlag.AlignCenter
.Test the Application:
Update Documentation:
doc
directory for any references to PyQt5.Update Docker Configuration:
docker-compose.yaml
,docker
directory), update the Docker images to include PyQt6.Communicate Changes to the Team:
By following these steps methodically, we can successfully upgrade to PyQt6, taking full advantage of its benefits while minimizing disruptions.
About backward compatibility
Switching from PyQt5 to PyQt6 introduces backward compatibility concerns due to several breaking changes in the API:
Code Changes Required:
User Impact:
Versioning Strategy:
Mitigation Plan:
Maintaining backward compatibility is important for user trust and adoption. By carefully planning the upgrade and supporting users through the transition, we can mitigate potential issues and make the most of the new features offered by PyQt6.
