PyQSO

PyQSO is a contact logging tool for amateur radio operators.

Build Status Documentation Status

Installation and running

Assuming that the current working directory is PyQSO's base directory (the directory that the Makefile is in), PyQSO can be installed via the terminal with the following command:

make install

Note: 'sudo' may be needed for this. Once installed, the following command will run PyQSO:

pyqso

Alternatively, PyQSO can be run (without installing) with:

python3 bin/pyqso

from PyQSO's base directory.

Documentation

The PyQSO documentation is stored in the docs directory. It can be built with the following command:

make docs

which will produce an HTML version of the documentation in docs/build/html that can be opened in a web browser.

Alternatively, a ready-built version of the PyQSO documentation can be found on Read the Docs.

Dependencies

PyQSO depends on the following Debian packages:

  • gir1.2-gtk-3.0
  • python3
  • python3-gi-cairo (for log printing purposes)

The following extra packages are necessary to fully enable the grey line tool and the plotting of logbook statistics:

  • python3-matplotlib (version 1.3.0 or later)
  • python3-mpltoolkits.basemap
  • python3-numpy
  • libxcb-render0-dev
  • python3-cairocffi
  • geocoder (installable via pip and used for QTH lookups)

The following extra package is necessary to build the documentation:

  • python3-sphinx

There currently does not exist a Python 3-compatible Debian package for Hamlib. This library must be built manually to enable Hamlib support.
