The August 2020 of QualCoder is available from https://github.com/ccbogel/QualCoder/releases
This release contains bug fixes. It also contains a lot of GUI improvements, including storing window sizes and a recent project menu. There is improved importing and exporting of files. Import of survey files in xlsx format is now available. There is also a Japanese language option (which will need revision), https://www.qdaa.info/qual-coder-install-windows10?fbclid=IwAR010UsEE_tq4_5iNbOZ_Tp91587YJnp1QGUtXvB9F4xa0g9F3fTJOUGrmw
The importation and exportation of projects in the REFI-QDA format is experimental and not fully compliant with the standards. There is improvement in text coding with better support for imported REFI-QDA files with some characters, e.g. smart quotes, than the previous version.
This release requires the installation of the python module: openpyxl
The manual contains the instructions to install this module.
The release contains a Debian for Linux and a master.zip folder. The source.zip, source.tar.gz contains one bug in the AV module to do with coding AV segments. The master.zip contains the source code also, without the bug.

Nueva versión de QualCoder.
I downloaded the source file, decompressed, and ran install.sh.
The installer appears to have completed without errors. But Qualcoder will not start. I’m running Manjaro linux. The AUR file for Qualcoder is outdated.
Can anyone provide clear simple instructions on how to get Qualcoder running on Arch/Manjaro? Thanks!
I’m looking forward to finally trying Qualcoder and have many projects in mind.
Hello Ray. I am not familiar with Manjaro/Arch does it use the apt packaging tool? As you need to install python3, pyqt5 and several other python modules. You also should have vlc installed also.
Can you try to run QualCoder from the terminal? e.g. cd to the where the file qualcoder.py is. Then run with python3 qualcoder.py
It should run. If not errors will be displayed and we can work through those.
Wow.. thank you for your fast reply. Arch does not use apt tools. I uses a different type of packaging system. I have python3, pyqt5 and vlc installed. Qualcoder is uncompressed in /home/ray1/QualCoder-2.1. And the file qualcoder.py is in /home/ray1/QualCoder-2.1/qualcoder/
When I run python3 qualcoder.py I get this message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “qualcoder.py”, line 57, in
from manage_files import DialogManageFiles
File “/home/ray1/QualCoder-2.1/qualcoder/manage_files.py”, line 65, in
import ebooklib
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘ebooklib’
Hopefully this is something easy!
Try running these commands to ensure all python dependencies are installed (change apt to what is needed for Arch):
sudo apt install python3-lxml python3-ply python3-six python3-chardet python3-qt5 python3-pillow
sudo apt install python3-pip
sudo python3 -m pip install pdfminer.six openpyxl ebooklib
I have tried to find Arch equivalents, but am receiving “Error: target not found: python3-ply etc There’s a number of various options for Arch’s “pacman -S” installation command- I doubt I’ll be able to figure them out.
See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/pacman#Installing_specific_packages
I’ll have to wait until Qualcoder is available in a form that is easier to install. Its in the Arch Linux AUR community repository, but its an outdated version.
