Python 2

Python 2.7 is provided in the "jolla" repository, and can be installed using pkcon:

pkcon install python

Python 3

Starting with Sailfish OS 1.0.3.8, Python 3.3.3 and PyOtherSide are shipped in the official repositories.

pkcon install python3-base

Python and Qt 5

There are different options for developing Python Qt 5 apps on Sailfish OS:

  • PyOtherSide: In official repositories, supports Qt 5 and Python 3. Will be supported in Harbour.
  • PyQt: Available from OpenRepos.net, supports Qt 5.
  • PySide: Not in official repositories or OpenRepos, as it doesn't support Qt 5 yet. If you need PySide-style bindings, use PyQt.


PyOtherSide

PyOtherSide homepage | PyOtherSide on github

Starting with Sailfish OS 1.0.3.8, PyOtherSide is now available in the official repos.

The PyOtherSide QML plugin can be installed directly without adding any addition repos using pkcon:

pkcon install pyotherside-qml-plugin-python3-qt5

PyQt

PyQt can be installed by adding the sailfish_lib repo:

ssu addrepo sailfish_lib http://sailfish.openrepos.net/sailfish_lib/personal/main
ssu updaterepos
pkcon refresh sailfish_lib

For Python2:

pkcon install pyqt

For Python3:

pkcon install python-pyqt
