My clean installation didn't pick up webkit. I cannot find any
python-webkit
on PyPI. How do I install it?There was a problem hiding this comment.

In
conda
it can be installed bypyqtwebengine
. It looks like PyPI hasPyQtWebEngine
, but I would install it via the same package manager as you installed pyqt otherwise you are likely to run into problems. This is one reason I want to get rid of it--it doesn't seem to be installed by default when one installs pyqt.There was a problem hiding this comment.

With Ginga 4, because I don't have
python-webkit
, I hit this line but only if I do not have docutils installed. I noticed it because the terminal complains about'publish_string' is not defined
.However, when I install docutils, I do not hit this, instead Ginga now tries to fire up WBrowser and complains that I do not have webkit. 🤯

Right, the web browser widget does not seem to be installed by default when you install qt, and unfortunately, in Ginga 4 this does not disable
WBrowser
. Instead, when you startWBrowser
, it tells you to install webkit to get things working. (Qt has changed the name of their version of webkit and in Qt 5 it's name isqtwebengine
AFAIK).Without a working
WBrowser
, in Ginga 4 it will attempt to fall back to_help_docstring()
which in Ginga 4 will attempt to usedocutils
(another thing I am getting rid of). I've updated this PR so that it will use anstginga
version of_help_docstring
, which will punt directly to showing the RST text. Give it a try and LMK how it goes.
