kivy / plyer Goto Github PK

An interface to play a sound no matter what codecs are supported on a particular platform. The user will probably have to provide the sound in a few formats, but the user should not have to manually check codecs and platforms to play the sound.

With android lollipop and the gps example, i get the following error when i try to start the gps service (from the gui) :

trying to corner the malfunction and to determine whetther my setup is wrong, I tried this :

Python 3.4.0 (default, Apr 11 2014, 13:05:11) 
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import plyer
>>> plyer.utils.platform
'unknown'
>>> plyer.utils._determine_platform()
'unknown'
>>> plyer.utils._sys_platform
'linux'
>>> plyer.utils._sys_platform.startswith("linux")   # mimics test on utils.py L38
True

so according to utils.py, plyer.utils.platform should be 'linux' ... but apparently _determine_platform() does not return what seems straightforward.

it can be worked around for testing purposes with

from sys import platform
if platform == 'linux':
    plyer.utils.platform = 'linux'  # only for testing purposes !!! 

but for obvious reasons, this is does not look like a good idea.

List all Location Providers but only use gps:

        providers = self._location_manager.getProviders(False).toArray()
        for provider in providers:
            self._location_manager.requestLocationUpdates(
                "gps",
                1000, # minTime, in milliseconds
                1, # minDistance, in meters
                self._location_listener,

it should be

            self._location_manager.requestLocationUpdates(
                provider,

if I use gps the app is stalled every times android go to sleep mode.
If I put gps.stop() in on_pause method the app is stalled too.

I posted
On the main Kivy issue page
But I realized this is the place I should post.
There are quite a few libraries that create accessible widgets for Linux Windows and OS X:
WXPython
PyGUI
Easy GUI

What they do is use pywin32, pyatspi and I believe coco for IOS.
The native designation is what we are after. If an app can be run through automation scripts, then only labeling needs to be done to make it completely accessible.

Kivy seems to be very much based off of pointer access and on mobile platforms this is OK (Although being able to flick from object to object is optimal), but on Windows, Linux and Mac, the mouse is almost never used. In the current Kivy setup, I can't even click a button with the enter key. So along with native widget support, Kivy will need to add keyboard handling to their desktop apps.

The two libraries above that seem to be the best are WXPython and pyGUI.
WXPython is quite an active library, but it is quite a large library and is perhaps a little over-kill for what is needed here. It is, however, the most accessible of all the options above. (There are not that many bugs and it is much more stable).

pyGUI is a lot smaller and I have not really played too much with it, but the examples I ran were kind of buggy, but they worked to some extent. Elements like labels were not the nicest I have ever seen and the buttons were bouncing my screen reader around, but I think that is more the way the key events are being processed.

It is possible to build a wrapper around the system accessibility frameworks directly, but if pywin32 is already included to Kivy and the linux accessibility is in python, there is only OS X and the two mobile platforms to deal with.
I have no experience with IOS or Android, but here are their respective accessibility modules:

Here is the OS X accessibility API for apple

On my android (Sony Xperia Z), I have sensors that would be cool to have in plyer
The sensors are :

• Rotation Vector
• Linear Acceleration
• Gravity

Trying to run the following code (from the docs):

from time import sleep
from plyer import gps

def print_locations(**kwargs):
    print 'lat: {lat}, lon: {lon}'.format(**kwargs)

gps.configure(on_location=print_locations)
gps.start()
sleep(5)
gps.stop()

However it crashes:

On Pypi, the latest plyer is 1.1.2 but this release doesn't include compass and many others.
Could you upgrade the pypi package to the latest release ?

Make uniqueid facade work with the OpenID implementations for Mac / iOS / Android: https://github.com/ylechelle/OpenUDID

Add support for the camera facade to OSX

The implementation returns the IMEI and therefore only works on phones, not tablets. Android provides an Android ID via Secure Settings which works for all devices and does not require any extra permissions (the current implementation requires READ_PHONE_STATE).

Example:

PythonActivity = autoclass('org.renpy.android.PythonActivity')
Secure = autoclass('android.provider.Settings$Secure')
android_id = Secure.getString(PythonActivity.mActivity.getContentResolver(),
                              Secure.ANDROID_ID)

Opening a notifications on windows 8.1 works, but unicode characters ("éàùç" and their friends) are displayed improperly, probably using a bad encoding (i would suspect a latin-1 or similar encoding).

(that's running the provided example)

We need a camera example app

Add support for the camera facade to Linux

I had closed the playsound pr (#65) without merging giving a reason that the user was better off including the external libs themselves. For example, if the app developer is using Kivy as the main framework to build their apps, it already has libs to play sounds.

Windows notification currently has a hard-coded 10s time out. Make that timeout adjustable. Line ~51 of notifications/win/libs/balloontip.py

Add support for the TTS facade to iOS

It would be great to be able to open the default system's browser to a particular page (passed in as an argument).

In an answer to a stackoverflow question about adding hyperlinks to Kivy, someone said that this functionality would be added to plyer at some point in the future. Is it on the agenda officially? If not, this is a request that it be added.

The stack overflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22385963/how-can-i-make-a-hyperlink-in-kivy

Thanks!

Add support for the GPS facade to iOS

Create an accelerometer example app.

Add support for the accelerometer facade to OSX. This may be done via the hard drive drop detection feature.

Hi

Why plyer doesn't contain any gyro example?
I found tito's example for reading sensors data but it seems it doesnt used plyer and written from base.

Battery should return status containing bool value isCharging instead of connected (bool). At this point we return connected: False if the battery is full. So it misrepresents the value in this case.

A possible solution for cross-platform (desktops) Speech to Text http://cmusphinx.sourceforge.net/

There's no way to detect if it is a joystick or an accelerometer other than reading the name, but AFAIK on Ubuntu accelerometers and some joysticks follow this glob:
/sys/devices/platform/*/position
The position file contains the value of the axes. I'm pretty sure though that there's a better way to read it than reading the position file. I think jstest-gtk is written in python.

Need to add a check in the GPS example for Android devices which don't have GPS capabilities. There is a platform check, but no device check.

Add support for the notification facade to iOS

Add support for the accelerometer facade to Windows

I propose the addition of the USSD feature.
For those who don't know what an USSD command is: it's a particular kind of network request where you type in a command (e.g. _123#, *123_45#, 123, etc...) and the network responds with some text (e.g. credit information). Sometimes the network keeps the session open waiting for the user to respond back: in that case you can either cancel or respond.
The facade should provide three methods: initiate (accepts a string with the command, returns network's response), respond (accepts a string with the response, returns network's response), cancel, and some way to see if a session is open or not.
See this for more details: http://www.freedesktop.org/software/ModemManager/api/latest/gdbus-org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Modem.Modem3gpp.Ussd.html

Tooltip text is currently hard-coded to "Balloon tooltip" in windows notifications. Make this value adjustable by the user. Line ~42 in balloontip.py
