How to set open/close icons in QTreewidget

How do I manage icon events for open and close in a QTreeWidget?

I have this code:

iconNameOpen="folder"
iconNameClose="folder_orange_open"

if ID>0:#file
    iconNameFile="file_important"
    icon=QIcon(':/manageinc/svg/reinhardticons/filesystems/{}.svg'.format(iconNameFile))
    item.setIcon(0,icon)
else:
    icon=QIcon(':/manageinc/svg/reinhardticons/filesystems/{}.svg'.format(iconNameOpen))
    item.setIcon(0,icon)
    #how manage when only this folder is opened or close?

If I do a stylesheet, I view both File and Folder (ID>0 or <0) with the same property).

You can use the itemExpanded and itemCollapsed signals to change the icons. The demo script below uses QStyle to create the icons, but you can do it any way you like:

import sys
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *

class Window(QTreeWidget):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        style = QApplication.style()
        self.dir_open = style.standardIcon(QStyle.SP_DirOpenIcon)
        self.dir_closed = style.standardIcon(QStyle.SP_DirClosedIcon)
        self.file_all = style.standardIcon(QStyle.SP_FileIcon)
        for index in '1234':
            parent = QTreeWidgetItem(self, ['Dir' + index])
            parent.setIcon(0, self.dir_closed)
            for item in 'ABC':
                child = QTreeWidgetItem(parent, ['File' + index + item])
                child.setIcon(0, self.file_all)
        self.itemExpanded.connect(self.handleExpanded)
        self.itemCollapsed.connect(self.handleCollapsed)

    def handleExpanded(self, item):
        item.setIcon(0, self.dir_open)

    def handleCollapsed(self, item):
        item.setIcon(0, self.dir_closed)

if __name__ == "__main__":

    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    window = Window()
    window.setGeometry(600, 50, 400, 300)
    window.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())
