[Python] How to manage QLineEdit.returnPressed signal from multiple QLineEdit? [duplicate]

Using qtpy (and the actual Qt5 behind):

def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
widget = QLineEdit()
widget.setPlaceholderText("Enter your text")
widget.returnPressed.connect(self.le_return_pressed)
self.setCentralWidget(widget)
self.le = widget

def le_return_pressed(self):
print(f'Line edit text: {self.le.text()}')

def main():
app = QApplication([])
window = MainWindow()
window.show()
app.exec()

if __name__ == '__main__':
main()


In the signal handler le_return_pressed I need to use a hard reference self.le to the widget to access its properties. If the handler is common to multiple QLineEdit, how to identify the signal source?
