HangOn

A simple timer using the python metapackage kivy https://kivy.org/#home for UI Interfaces, runs on Android!

You can run this in your python environment, there are no requirements beyond kivy.

python main.py

install vagrant

If you dont know vagrant, now the time to get started with!

mkdir my-dev
cd my-dev
vagrant init larryli/vivid64

edit the Vagrantfile:

#config.vm.network "public_network"
  
   # If true, then any SSH connections made will enable agent forwarding.
   # Default value: false
   
   config.ssh.forward_agent = true
   config.ssh.forward_x11 = true
  
   config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb|
      vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "1024"]
   end

then do:

cd my-dev
vagrant up
vagrant ssh

everything is done inside a virtual machine

kivy-install-process

To get kivy installed, the following procedure was working nicely:

sudo apt-get install xterm

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libffi-dev python-dev python-pip

sudo apt-get install -y \
    python-pip \
    build-essential \
    git \
    python \
    python-dev \
    ffmpeg \
    libsdl2-dev \
    libsdl2-image-dev \
    libsdl2-mixer-dev \
    libsdl2-ttf-dev \
    libportmidi-dev \
    libswscale-dev \
    libavformat-dev \
    libavcodec-dev \
    zlib1g-dev

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kivy-team/kivy
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-kivy

now test mini-kivy app (Should run !!!)

buildozer-install process

the following procedure should do for deb-linuxes:

sudo pip install --upgrade cython==0.21
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential ccache git libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libgtk2.0-0:i386 libpangox-1.0-0:i386 libpangoxft-1.0-0:i386 libidn11:i386 python2.7 python2.7-dev openjdk-7-jdk unzip zlib1g-dev zlib1g:i386

sudo apt-get install python3-pip
pip3 install --upgrade buildozer

goto project folder

copy .spec file

export PATH=/home/vagrant/.local/bin:$PATH

run:

buildozer -v android debug

outside the virtual machine (USB-Debugging)

  adb devices
  cd my-dev/myproject/bin
  adb install -r test.apk
  adb logcat -d | grep -w python
