1. Install pyqt5-tool and PyQt5
   QT designer is included in pyqt5, which is a python module, so we can install it directly through pip3 install pyqt5. Also, you can install it directly through pycharm.
   Select File->Setting->Project Interpter:
   
   
   

2. Configure qtdesigner, pyuic and pyrcc
   Select File->Setting->External Tools->Add
   

Specific configuration:
a. qtdesigner

• Name — enter the name of the last tool you want to render in the menu, such as qtdesigner
• Program — the location of the designer.exe program, which is located in lib \site-packages\qt5_applications\Qt\bin\designer.exe of the currently used parser

Noticing that different versions of python have different paths of designer.exe

• Working directory — designer.exe working path, set to $FileDir$
  
  b. pyuic
• Program -- pyuic is located in Scripts\pyuic5.exe of the current parser
• Arguments --$FileName$ -o $FileNameWithoutExtension$.py
• Working directory --$FileDir$
  
  c. pyrcc
• Program -- pyrcc is located in Scripts\pyrcc5.exe of the current parser
• Arguments -- $FileName$ -o $FileNameWithoutExtension$_rc.py
• Working directory -- $FileDir$
  

3. Use External Tools
   Specifically using pyrcc as the example :
   

The final meua_rc,py must be located in the root directory of your project directory
