Class: QgsDateEdit

A QDateEdit widget with the capability of setting/reading null dates.

Warning

You should use the signal dateValueChanged of this subclass rather than QDateTimeEdit.dateChanged. (If you consequently connect parent’s dateChanged signal and call date() afterwards there is no guarantee that NULL values will be correctly handled).

class qgis.gui.QgsDateEdit[source]

Bases: QgsDateTimeEdit

__init__(parent: QWidget | None = None)

Constructor for QgsDateEdit. The current time is used by default. The widget is allowing null by default. If allow null is disabled, you should check allowNull before getting values from the widget.

Parameters:

parent (Optional[QWidget] = None)

signal dateValueChanged[source]

pyqtSignal(*types, name: str = …, revision: int = …, arguments: Sequence = …) -> PYQT_SIGNAL

types is normally a sequence of individual types. Each type is either a type object or a string that is the name of a C++ type. Alternatively each type could itself be a sequence of types each describing a different overloaded signal. name is the optional C++ name of the signal. If it is not specified then the name of the class attribute that is bound to the signal is used. revision is the optional revision of the signal that is exported to QML. If it is not specified then 0 is used. arguments is the optional sequence of the names of the signal’s arguments.

setDate(self, date: QDate | datetime.date)[source]

Sets the date for the widget and handles null dates.

Note

Since QDateTimeEdit.setDate() is not virtual, setDate must be called for QgsDateEdit.

Parameters:

date (Union[QDate, datetime.date])
