Source for Dart website

The Dart language site (dart.dev)  

The https://dart.dev site, built with Jekyll and hosted on Firebase.

We welcome contributions, and we're first-timer friendly!

Getting started

Start by looking for an issue that catches your interest, or create an issue with your proposed change. Ask for the issue to be assigned to you.

To update this site, fork the repo, make your changes, and generate a pull request. For simple changes (such as to CSS and text), you probably don't need to build this site. Often you can make changes using the GitHub UI.

NOTE: If you clone this repo locally, see the instructions below on cloning with its submodule.

If your change involves code samples, adds/removes pages, or affects navigation, you'll need to build and test your work before submitting.

If you want or need to build, follow the steps below.

Help us improve these instructions! If you have any problems getting set up to build or performing the actual build, please edit this README or file an issue (or both).

Before you build this site

For changes beyond simple text and CSS tweaks, we recommend building the site.

1. Get the prerequisites

Install the following tools, if you don't have them already:

bash, the Bourne shell. These instructions assume you're using bash, and setup might not work if you use another shell.

GNU Make. On Windows the easiest way to install Make is choco install make using command prompt or powershell as an admin. Other options include using a subsystem.

Docker. We use Docker for local dev, tests, and building the site. Install it from https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/.

Firebase CLI, for hosting the site locally. One way to get this is to run npm install -g firebase-tools. For full setup details, read the Firebase CLI documentation.

2. Clone this repo and its submodules

Note: This repo has git submodules, which affects how you clone it. The GitHub documentation has general help on forking and cloning repos.

If you're not a member of the Dart organization, we recommend you create a fork of this repo under your own account, and then submit a PR from that fork.

Once you have a fork (or you're a Dart org member), choose one of the following submodule-cloning techniques:

Clone the repo and its submodule at the same time using the --recurse-submodules option:

$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/dart-lang/site-www.git

OR

If you've already cloned the repo without its submodule, then run this command from the repo root:

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

Note: At any time during development you can use the git submodule command to refresh submodules:

$ git pull; git submodule update --init --recursive

Setting up your local environment and serve changes

Optional: After cloning the repo and its submodules, create a branch for your changes:

$ git checkout -b <BRANCH_NAME>

If the Docker Desktop application isn't already running on your machine, start it. Look for the Docker status icon: if it has an exclamation point (!), then update Docker Desktop before proceeding.

Run the initial local setup command:

$ make setup

Serve the site locally (via docker-compose):

$ make up

The site is generated, and then the development server runs in the Docker container, with the generated _site directory visible locally as a mirrored volume from inside the container.

View your changes in the browser by navigating to http://localhost:4000.

Note: Unless you're editing files under site-shared, you can safely ignore ERROR: directory is already being watched messages. For details, see #1363.

Make your changes to the local repo.

The site will rebuild and the browser will autoreload to reflect the changes.

Tip: If you aren't seeing the changes you expect (e.g. src/_data), ctrl-C out of your running dev server and rebuild the site from scratch using the following commands:

$ make down && make clean && make up

Commit your changes to the branch and submit your PR.

See Pre-push site checks

When you've finished developing, shut down the Docker container:

$ make down

Tip: To find additional commands, read the Makefile. For example, if you need to debug the Docker setup, you can run:

$ make run

Pre-push site checks

Checking documentation and example code

If you've made changes to this site's documentation and/or example code, and committed locally, then run the following command before pushing your work:

# Enter a running Docker container shell
make run

# Check/validate example code
tool/test.sh

# Check links for 404 errors
tool/check-links.sh

If these scripts report errors or warnings, then address those issues and rerun the above commands. Otherwise, you can push your changes.

Deploying to a staging site

You can deploy your local edits to a personal Firebase hosting staging site as follows:

If you don't already have a Firebase project,

Navigate to the Firebase Console and create your own Firebase project (for example, dart-dev-staging).

Head back to your local repo shell and verify that you are logged in.

$ firebase login

Ensure that your project exists and activate that project:

$ firebase projects:list
$ firebase use <your-project>

Build the site via Docker:

$ make build

This will build the site and copy it to your local _site directory. If that directory previously existed, it will be replaced.

Deploy to your activated Firebase project's default hosting site:

$ FIREBASE_PROJECT=<your-project> make deploy

TIP: Add your FIREBASE_PROJECT env var to your .env file and it will overwrite the default every time you deploy without specifying.

Navigate to your PR on GitHub and update it with the location of the staged version, the names of your reviewers, and so on.

Creating and/or editing DartPad example code

Most of the code used to create DartPad examples is hosted on GitHub. However, this repo also contains some *.dart files responsible for DartPad example code.

Refresh DartPad HTML tooltips

Files that require DartPad HTML to be manually updated include instructions at the top that specify running:

$ tool/create_code_with_tooltips.dart

Follow the instructions in those files to refresh the appropriate code.

DartPad picker

The DartPad example picker must be manually compiled if changes are made. This will regenerate the associated JavaScript file in src/assets/dash/js:

$ tool/compile.sh

Dockerfile Maintenance

Dart SDK and Node PPA Checksum values

Since both the Dart SDK and Node PPA curl remote files, it's important to verify checksum values. Both installs use latest and lts respectively, so these files may be periodically updated. When this happens, local checksums may fail and This will break the Docker/Compose setup/build. You will see the relevant output in your shell e.g. DART CHECKSUM FAILED!.... When this happens, run the following command:

make run

make fetch-sums

This command will output the updated checksum values for both Node and Dart, and that output will be formatted similar or the same as what is currently in the Dockerfile. Copy this output and replace the relevant install code in the Dockerfile, then rerun your setup/build again.

Implicit Interfaces in Dart

Did you know that in #Dart, every #class implicitly exports an #interface that can be #implemented (as opposed to #extended) by other classes? This is called "implicit interface".

Do you know how "const" constructors work in #Dart?

Did you know that in #Dart, it is actually preferred to use #async and #await over using raw #Futures?

In #Dart, you can use a combination of #Initializer #List plus default values for your class #member #fields to create elegant and handy convenience initializers

Did you know that in #Dart, you can extract elements of a certain type from your Lists using the #whereType #generic #function instead of calculating the #equality yourselves?

Do you know about #Type #Promotion in Dart?

"address" is an optional field of the "Person" class. If you look at the "doThis()" function you see that I'm saving the value of address in a local variable and then comparing it with null and then returning if it's null. The Dart compiler is intelligent enough to understand that after the if-statement, "address" is NOT null anymore since you've already compared it with null and returned from the function.

If you look at the "insteadOfThis" function, the first one, the Dart compiler cannot make the same assumption if you don't first store the value of address in a local variable. In that first function the Dart compiler, even after the if-statement, needs you to refer to address as an optional, using "address?" syntax.

The mechanism the Dart compiler uses in the "doThis()" function is called Type Promotion.

Build an Android application with Kivy Python framework

If you’re a Python developer thinking about getting started with mobile development, then the Kivy framework is your best bet. With Kivy, you can develop platform-independent applications that compile for iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and Linux. In this article, we’ll cover Android specifically because it is the most used.

We’ll build a simple random number generator app that you can install on your phone and test when you are done. To follow along with this article, you should be familiar with Python. Let’s get started!

Getting started with Kivy

First, you’ll need a new directory for your app. Make sure you have Python installed on your machine and open a new Python file. You’ll need to install the Kivy module from your terminal using either of the commands below. To avoid any package conflicts, be sure you’re installing Kivy in a virtual environment:

pip install kivy 
//
pip3 install kivy 

Once you have installed Kivy, you should see a success message from your terminal that looks like the screenshots below:

Kivy installation

Successful Kivy installation

 

Next, navigate into your project folder. In the main.py file, we’ll need to import the Kivy module and specify which version we want. You can use Kivy v2.0.0, but if you have a smartphone that is older than Android 8.0, I recommend using Kivy v1.9.0. You can mess around with the different versions during the build to see the differences in features and performance.

Add the version number right after the import kivy line as follows:

kivy.require('1.9.0')

Now, we’ll create a class that will basically define our app; I’ll name mine RandomNumber. This class will inherit the app class from Kivy. Therefore, you need to import the app by adding from kivy.app import App:

class RandomNumber(App): 

In the RandomNumber class, you’ll need to add a function called build, which takes a self parameter. To actually return the UI, we’ll use the build function. For now, I have it returned as a simple label. To do so, you’ll need to import Label using the line from kivy.uix.label import Label:

import kivy
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.label import Label

class RandomNumber(App):
  def build(self):
    return Label(text="Random Number Generator")

Now, our app skeleton is complete! Before moving forward, you should create an instance of the RandomNumber class and run it in your terminal or IDE to see the interface:

import kivy from kivy.app import App from kivy.uix.label import Label class RandomNumber(App):  def build(self):    return Label(text="Random Number Generator") randomApp = RandomNumber() randomApp.run()

When you run the class instance with the text Random Number Generator, you should see a simple interface or window that looks like the screenshot below:

 

Simple interface after running the code

You won’t be able to run the text on Android until you’ve finished building the whole thing.

Outsourcing the interface

Next, we’ll need a way to outsource the interface. First, we’ll create a Kivy file in our directory that will house most of our design work. You’ll want to name this file the same name as your class using lowercase letters and a .kv extension. Kivy will automatically associate the class name and the file name, but it may not work on Android if they are exactly the same.

Inside that .kv file, you need to specify the layout for your app, including elements like the label, buttons, forms, etc. To keep this demonstration simple, I’ll add a label for the title Random Number, a label that will serve as a placeholder for the random number that is generated _, and a Generate button that calls the generate function.

My .kv file looks like the code below, but you can mess around with the different values to fit your requirements:

<boxLayout>:
    orientation: "vertical"
    Label:
        text: "Random Number"
        font_size: 30
        color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

    Label:
        text: "_"
        font_size: 30

    Button:
        text: "Generate"
        font_size: 15 

In the main.py file, you no longer need the Label import statement because the Kivy file takes care of your UI. However, you do need to import boxlayout, which you will use in the Kivy file.

In your main file, you need to add the import statement and edit your main.py file to read return BoxLayout() in the build method:

from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout

If you run the command above, you should see a simple interface that has the random number title, the _ place holder, and the clickable generate button:

Random Number app rendered

Notice that you didn’t have to import anything for the Kivy file to work. Basically, when you run the app, it returns boxlayout by looking for a file inside the Kivy file with the same name as your class. Keep in mind, this is a simple interface, and you can make your app as robust as you want. Be sure to check out the Kv language documentation.

Generate the random number function

Now that our app is almost done, we’ll need a simple function to generate random numbers when a user clicks the generate button, then render that random number into the app interface. To do so, we’ll need to change a few things in our files.

First, we’ll import the module that we’ll use to generate a random number with import random. Then, we’ll create a function or method that calls the generated number. For this demonstration, I’ll use a range between 0 and 2000. Generating the random number is simple with the random.randint(0, 2000) command. We’ll add this into our code in a moment.

Next, we’ll create another class that will be our own version of the box layout. Our class will have to inherit the box layout class, which houses the method to generate random numbers and render them on the interface:

class MyRoot(BoxLayout):
    def __init__(self):
        super(MyRoot, self).__init__()

Within that class, we’ll create the generate method, which will not only generate random numbers but also manipulate the label that controls what is displayed as the random number in the Kivy file.

To accommodate this method, we’ll first need to make changes to the .kv file . Since the MyRoot class has inherited the box layout, you can make MyRoot the top level element in your .kv file:

<MyRoot>:
    BoxLayout:
        orientation: "vertical"
        Label:
            text: "Random Number"
            font_size: 30
            color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

        Label:
            text: "_"
            font_size: 30

        Button:
            text: "Generate"
            font_size: 15

Notice that you are still keeping all your UI specifications indented in the Box Layout. After this, you need to add an ID to the label that will hold the generated numbers, making it easy to manipulate when the generate function is called. You need to specify the relationship between the ID in this file and another in the main code at the top, just before the BoxLayout line:

<MyRoot>:
    random_label: random_label
    BoxLayout:
        orientation: "vertical"
        Label:
            text: "Random Number"
            font_size: 30
            color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

        Label:
            id: random_label
            text: "_"
            font_size: 30

        Button:
            text: "Generate"
            font_size: 15

The random_label: random_label line basically means that the label with the ID random_label will be mapped to random_label in the main.py file, meaning that any action that manipulates random_label will be mapped on the label with the specified name.

We can now create the method to generate the random number in the main file:

def generate_number(self):
    self.random_label.text = str(random.randint(0, 2000))

# notice how the class method manipulates the text attributre of the random label by a# ssigning it a new random number generate by the 'random.randint(0, 2000)' funcion. S# ince this the random number generated is an integer, typecasting is required to make # it a string otherwise you will get a typeError in your terminal when you run it.

The MyRoot class should look like the code below:

class MyRoot(BoxLayout):
    def __init__(self):
        super(MyRoot, self).__init__()

    def generate_number(self):
        self.random_label.text = str(random.randint(0, 2000))

Congratulations! You’re now done with the main file of the app. The only thing left to do is make sure that you call this function when the generate button is clicked. You need only add the line on_press: root.generate_number() to the button selection part of your .kv file:

<MyRoot>:
    random_label: random_label
    BoxLayout:
        orientation: "vertical"
        Label:
            text: "Random Number"
            font_size: 30
            color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

        Label:
            id: random_label
            text: "_"
            font_size: 30

        Button:
            text: "Generate"
            font_size: 15
            on_press: root.generate_number()

Now, you can run the app.

Compiling our app on Android

Before compiling our app on Android, I have some bad news for Windows users. You’ll need Linux or macOS to compile your Android application. However, you don’t need to have a separate Linux distribution, instead, you can use a virtual machine.

To compile and generate a full Android .apk application, we’ll use a tool called Buildozer. Let’s install Buildozer through our terminal using one of the commands below:

pip3 install buildozer
//
pip install buildozer

Now, we’ll install some of Buildozer’s required dependencies. I am on Linux Ergo, so I’ll use Linux-specific commands. You should execute these commands one by one:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y git zip unzip openjdk-13-jdk python3-pip autoconf libtool pkg-config zlib1g-dev libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev libtinfo5 cmake libffi-dev libssl-dev

pip3 install --upgrade Cython==0.29.19 virtualenv 

# add the following line at the end of your ~/.bashrc file
export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin/

After executing the specific commands, run buildozer init. You should see an output similar to the screenshot below:

Buildozer successful initialization

The command above creates a Buildozer .spec file, which you can use to make specifications to your app, including the name of the app, the icon, etc. The .spec file should look like the code block below:

[app]

# (str) Path to build output (i.e. .apk, .ipa) storage
# bin_dir = ./bin

#    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#    List as sections
#
#    You can define all the "list" as [section:key].
#    Each line will be considered as a option to the list.
#    Let's take [app] / source.exclude_patterns.
#    Instead of doing:
#
#[app]
#source.exclude_patterns = license,data/audio/*.wav,data/images/original/*
#
#    This can be translated into:
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns]
#license
#data/audio/*.wav
#data/images/original/*
#


#    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#    Profiles
#
#    You can extend section / key with a profile
#    For example, you want to deploy a demo version of your application without
#    HD content. You could first change the title to add "(demo)" in the name
#    and extend the excluded directories to remove the HD content.
#
#[app@demo]
#title = My Application (demo)
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns@demo]
#images/hd/*
#
#    Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:
#
#buildozer --profile demo android debug

If you want to specify things like the icon, requirements, loading screen, etc., you should edit this file. After making all the desired edits to your application, run buildozer -v android debug from your app directory to build and compile your application. This may take a while, especially if you have a slow machine.

After the process is done, your terminal should have some logs, one confirming that the build was successful:

Android successful build

You should also have an APK version of your app in your bin directory. This is the application executable that you will install and run on your phone:

Android .apk in the bin directory

Conclusion

Congratulations! If you have followed this tutorial step by step, you should have a simple random number generator app on your phone. Play around with it and tweak some values, then rebuild. Running the rebuild will not take as much time as the first build.

As you can see, building a mobile application with Python is fairly straightforward, as long as you are familiar with the framework or module you are working with. Regardless, the logic is executed the same way.

Get familiar with the Kivy module and it’s widgets. You can never know everything all at once. You only need to find a project and get your feet wet as early as possible. Happy coding.

Cree Una Aplicación De Android Con El Marco Kivy Python

Si es un desarrollador de Python que está pensando en comenzar con el desarrollo móvil, entonces el marco Kivy es su mejor opción. Con Kivy, puede desarrollar aplicaciones independientes de la plataforma que compilan para iOS, Android, Windows, macOS y Linux. En este artículo, cubriremos Android específicamente porque es el más utilizado.

Construiremos una aplicación generadora de números aleatorios simple que puede instalar en su teléfono y probar cuando haya terminado. Para continuar con este artículo, debe estar familiarizado con Python. ¡Empecemos!

Primeros pasos con Kivy

Primero, necesitará un nuevo directorio para su aplicación. Asegúrese de tener Python instalado en su máquina y abra un nuevo archivo de Python. Deberá instalar el módulo Kivy desde su terminal usando cualquiera de los comandos a continuación. Para evitar conflictos de paquetes, asegúrese de instalar Kivy en un entorno virtual:

pip install kivy 
//
pip3 install kivy 

Una vez que haya instalado Kivy, debería ver un mensaje de éxito de su terminal que se parece a las capturas de pantalla a continuación:

Instalación decepcionada

Instalación exitosa de Kivy

 

A continuación, navegue a la carpeta de su proyecto. En el main.pyarchivo, necesitaremos importar el módulo Kivy y especificar qué versión queremos. Puede usar Kivy v2.0.0, pero si tiene un teléfono inteligente anterior a Android 8.0, le recomiendo usar Kivy v1.9.0. Puede jugar con las diferentes versiones durante la compilación para ver las diferencias en las características y el rendimiento.

Agregue el número de versión justo después de la import kivylínea de la siguiente manera:

kivy.require('1.9.0')

Ahora, crearemos una clase que básicamente definirá nuestra aplicación; Voy a nombrar el mío RandomNumber. Esta clase heredará la appclase de Kivy. Por lo tanto, debe importar appagregando from kivy.app import App:

class RandomNumber(App): 

En la RandomNumberclase, deberá agregar una función llamada build, que toma un selfparámetro. Para devolver la interfaz de usuario, usaremos la buildfunción. Por ahora, lo tengo devuelto como una simple etiqueta. Para hacerlo, deberá importar Labelusando la línea from kivy.uix.label import Label:

import kivy
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.label import Label

class RandomNumber(App):
  def build(self):
    return Label(text="Random Number Generator")

¡Ahora, el esqueleto de nuestra aplicación está completo! Antes de continuar, debe crear una instancia de la RandomNumberclase y ejecutarla en su terminal o IDE para ver la interfaz:

importar kivy de kivy.app importar aplicación de kivy.uix.label clase de etiqueta de importación RandomNumber(App): def build(self): return Label(text="Generador de números aleatorios") randomApp = RandomNumber() randomApp.run()

Cuando ejecuta la instancia de clase con el texto Random Number Generator, debería ver una interfaz o ventana simple que se parece a la siguiente captura de pantalla:

 

Interfaz simple después de ejecutar el código.

No podrá ejecutar el texto en Android hasta que haya terminado de construir todo.

Externalización de la interfaz

A continuación, necesitaremos una forma de subcontratar la interfaz. Primero, crearemos un archivo Kivy en nuestro directorio que albergará la mayor parte de nuestro trabajo de diseño. Querrá nombrar este archivo con el mismo nombre que su clase usando letras minúsculas y una .kvextensión. Kivy asociará automáticamente el nombre de la clase y el nombre del archivo, pero es posible que no funcione en Android si son exactamente iguales.

Dentro de ese .kvarchivo, debe especificar el diseño de su aplicación, incluidos elementos como la etiqueta, los botones, los formularios, etc. Para simplificar esta demostración, agregaré una etiqueta para el título Random Number, una etiqueta que servirá como marcador de posición. para el número aleatorio que se genera _, y un Generatebotón que llama a la generatefunción.

Mi .kvarchivo se parece al siguiente código, pero puede jugar con los diferentes valores para que se ajusten a sus requisitos:

<boxLayout>:
    orientation: "vertical"
    Label:
        text: "Random Number"
        font_size: 30
        color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

    Label:
        text: "_"
        font_size: 30

    Button:
        text: "Generate"
        font_size: 15 

En el main.pyarchivo, ya no necesita la Labeldeclaración de importación porque el archivo Kivy se encarga de su interfaz de usuario. Sin embargo, necesita importar boxlayout, que utilizará en el archivo Kivy.

En su archivo principal, debe agregar la declaración de importación y editar su main.pyarchivo para leer return BoxLayout()el buildmétodo:

from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout

Si ejecuta el comando anterior, debería ver una interfaz simple que tiene el título del número aleatorio, el _marcador de posición y el generatebotón en el que se puede hacer clic:

Aplicación de números aleatorios renderizada

Tenga en cuenta que no tuvo que importar nada para que funcione el archivo Kivy. Básicamente, cuando ejecuta la aplicación, regresa boxlayoutbuscando un archivo dentro del archivo Kivy con el mismo nombre que su clase. Tenga en cuenta que esta es una interfaz simple y puede hacer que su aplicación sea tan robusta como desee. Asegúrese de consultar la documentación del idioma Kv .

Generar la función de números aleatorios

Ahora que nuestra aplicación está casi terminada, necesitaremos una función simple para generar números aleatorios cuando un usuario haga clic en el generatebotón y luego mostrar ese número aleatorio en la interfaz de la aplicación. Para hacerlo, necesitaremos cambiar algunas cosas en nuestros archivos.

Primero, importaremos el módulo que usaremos para generar un número aleatorio con import random. Luego, crearemos una función o método que llame al número generado. Para esta demostración, usaré un rango entre 0y 2000. Generar el número aleatorio es simple con el random.randint(0, 2000)comando. Agregaremos esto a nuestro código en un momento.

A continuación, crearemos otra clase que será nuestra propia versión del box layout. Nuestra clase tendrá que heredar la box layoutclase, que alberga el método para generar números aleatorios y representarlos en la interfaz:

class MyRoot(BoxLayout):
    def __init__(self):
        super(MyRoot, self).__init__()

Dentro de esa clase, crearemos el generatemétodo, que no solo generará números aleatorios, sino que también manipulará la etiqueta que controla lo que se muestra como número aleatorio en el archivo Kivy.

Para acomodar este método, primero necesitaremos hacer cambios en el .kvarchivo. Dado que la MyRootclase ha heredado el box layout, puede crear MyRootel elemento de nivel superior en su .kvarchivo:

<MyRoot>:
    BoxLayout:
        orientation: "vertical"
        Label:
            text: "Random Number"
            font_size: 30
            color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

        Label:
            text: "_"
            font_size: 30

        Button:
            text: "Generate"
            font_size: 15

Tenga en cuenta que todavía mantiene todas las especificaciones de la interfaz de usuario con sangría en el archivo Box Layout. Después de esto, debe agregar una identificación a la etiqueta que contendrá los números generados, lo que facilita la manipulación cuando generatese llama a la función. Debe especificar la relación entre la ID en este archivo y otra en el código principal en la parte superior, justo antes de la BoxLayoutlínea:

<MyRoot>:
    random_label: random_label
    BoxLayout:
        orientation: "vertical"
        Label:
            text: "Random Number"
            font_size: 30
            color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

        Label:
            id: random_label
            text: "_"
            font_size: 30

        Button:
            text: "Generate"
            font_size: 15

La random_label: random_labellínea básicamente significa que la etiqueta con el ID random_labelse asignará a random_labelen el main.pyarchivo, lo que significa que cualquier acción que manipula random_labelserán mapeados en la etiqueta con el nombre especificado.

Ahora podemos crear el método para generar el número aleatorio en el archivo principal:

def generate_number(self):
    self.random_label.text = str(random.randint(0, 2000))

# notice how the class method manipulates the text attributre of the random label by a# ssigning it a new random number generate by the 'random.randint(0, 2000)' funcion. S# ince this the random number generated is an integer, typecasting is required to make # it a string otherwise you will get a typeError in your terminal when you run it.

La MyRootclase debería parecerse al siguiente código:

class MyRoot(BoxLayout):
    def __init__(self):
        super(MyRoot, self).__init__()

    def generate_number(self):
        self.random_label.text = str(random.randint(0, 2000))

¡Felicidades! Ya ha terminado con el archivo principal de la aplicación. Lo único que queda por hacer es asegurarse de llamar a esta función cuando se haga generateclic en el botón. Solo necesita agregar la línea on_press: root.generate_number()a la parte de selección de botones de su .kvarchivo:

<MyRoot>:
    random_label: random_label
    BoxLayout:
        orientation: "vertical"
        Label:
            text: "Random Number"
            font_size: 30
            color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

        Label:
            id: random_label
            text: "_"
            font_size: 30

        Button:
            text: "Generate"
            font_size: 15
            on_press: root.generate_number()

Ahora, puede ejecutar la aplicación.

Compilando nuestra aplicación en Android

Antes de compilar nuestra aplicación en Android, tengo malas noticias para los usuarios de Windows. Necesitará Linux o macOS para compilar su aplicación de Android. Sin embargo, no necesita tener una distribución de Linux separada, en su lugar, puede usar una máquina virtual.

Para compilar y generar una .apkaplicación Android completa , usaremos una herramienta llamada Buildozer . Instalemos Buildozer a través de nuestra terminal usando uno de los siguientes comandos:

pip3 install buildozer
//
pip install buildozer

Ahora, instalaremos algunas de las dependencias requeridas de Buildozer. Estoy en Linux Ergo, así que usaré comandos específicos de Linux. Debe ejecutar estos comandos uno por uno:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y git zip unzip openjdk-13-jdk python3-pip autoconf libtool pkg-config zlib1g-dev libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev libtinfo5 cmake libffi-dev libssl-dev

pip3 install --upgrade Cython==0.29.19 virtualenv 

# add the following line at the end of your ~/.bashrc file
export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin/

Después de ejecutar los comandos específicos, ejecute buildozer init. Debería ver un resultado similar a la captura de pantalla a continuación:

Inicialización exitosa de Buildozer

El comando anterior crea un .specarchivo Buildozer , que puede usar para hacer especificaciones para su aplicación, incluido el nombre de la aplicación, el ícono, etc. El .specarchivo debe verse como el bloque de código a continuación:

#buildozer --profile demo android debug

Si desea especificar cosas como el ícono, los requisitos, la pantalla de carga, etc., debe editar este archivo. Después de realizar todas las ediciones deseadas en su aplicación, ejecute buildozer -v android debugdesde el directorio de su aplicación para construir y compilar su aplicación. Esto puede llevar un tiempo, especialmente si tiene una máquina lenta.

Una vez finalizado el proceso, su terminal debería tener algunos registros, uno que confirme que la compilación fue exitosa:

Construcción exitosa de Android

También debe tener una versión APK de su aplicación en su directorio bin. Este es el ejecutable de la aplicación que instalará y ejecutará en su teléfono:

Android .apk en el directorio bin

Conclusión

¡Felicidades! Si ha seguido este tutorial paso a paso, debería tener una aplicación simple de generador de números aleatorios en su teléfono. Juega con él y ajusta algunos valores, luego reconstruye. Ejecutar la reconstrucción no llevará tanto tiempo como la primera compilación.

Como puede ver, crear una aplicación móvil con Python es bastante sencillo , siempre que esté familiarizado con el marco o módulo con el que está trabajando. Independientemente, la lógica se ejecuta de la misma manera.

Familiarícese con el módulo Kivy y sus widgets. Nunca se puede saber todo a la vez. Solo necesita encontrar un proyecto y mojarse los pies lo antes posible. Codificación feliz.

KivyPythonフレームワークを使用してAndroidアプリケーションを構築する

あなたがモバイル開発を始めることを考えているPython開発者なら、Kivyフレームワークが最善の策です。Kivyを使用すると、iOS、Android、Windows、macOS、およびLinux用にコンパイルされるプラットフォームに依存しないアプリケーションを開発できます。この記事では、Androidが最も使用されているため、特にAndroidについて説明します。

簡単な乱数ジェネレーターアプリを作成します。このアプリを携帯電話にインストールして、完了したらテストできます。この記事を続けるには、Pythonに精通している必要があります。始めましょう!

Kivyを使い始める

まず、アプリ用の新しいディレクトリが必要になります。マシンにPythonがインストールされていることを確認し、新しいPythonファイルを開きます。以下のコマンドのいずれかを使用して、ターミナルからKivyモジュールをインストールする必要があります。パッケージの競合を避けるために、Kivyを仮想環境にインストールしていることを確認してください。

pip install kivy 
//
pip3 install kivy 

Kivyをインストールすると、以下のスクリーンショットのような成功メッセージがターミナルから表示されます。

がっかりしたインストール

Kivyのインストールに成功

 

次に、プロジェクトフォルダに移動します。このmain.pyファイルで、Kivyモジュールをインポートし、必要なバージョンを指定する必要があります。Kivy v2.0.0を使用できますが、Android 8.0より古いスマートフォンを使用している場合は、Kivyv1.9.0を使用することをお勧めします。ビルド中にさまざまなバージョンをいじって、機能とパフォーマンスの違いを確認できます。

import kivy次のように、行の直後にバージョン番号を追加します。

kivy.require('1.9.0')

次に、基本的にアプリを定義するクラスを作成します。私の名前を付けますRandomNumber。このクラスはappKivyからクラスを継承します。したがって、次appを追加してインポートする必要がありますfrom kivy.app import App

class RandomNumber(App): 

ではRandomNumberクラスは、呼び出された関数を追加する必要がありますbuildとり、selfパラメータを。実際にUIを返すには、このbuild関数を使用します。今のところ、単純なラベルとして返送しています。そのためには、次Labelの行を使用してインポートする必要がありますfrom kivy.uix.label import Label

import kivy
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.label import Label

class RandomNumber(App):
  def build(self):
    return Label(text="Random Number Generator")

これで、アプリのスケルトンが完成しました。先に進む前に、RandomNumberクラスのインスタンスを作成し、ターミナルまたはIDEで実行して、インターフェイスを確認する必要があります。

import kivy from kivy.app import App from kivy.uix.label import Label class RandomNumber(App):def build(self):return Label(text = "Random Number Generator")randomApp = RandomNumber()randomApp.run()

テキストを使用してクラスインスタンスを実行すると、Random Number Generator次のスクリーンショットのような単純なインターフェイスまたはウィンドウが表示されます。

 

コードを実行した後のシンプルなインターフェイス

すべての構築が完了するまで、Androidでテキストを実行することはできません。

インターフェースのアウトソーシング

次に、インターフェースをアウトソーシングする方法が必要になります。まず、ディレクトリにKivyファイルを作成します。このファイルには、ほとんどの設計作業が含まれています。このファイルには、小文字と.kv拡張子を使用して、クラスと同じ名前を付けることができます。Kivyはクラス名とファイル名を自動的に関連付けますが、それらがまったく同じである場合、Androidでは機能しない可能性があります。

その.kvファイル内で、ラベル、ボタン、フォームなどの要素を含むアプリのレイアウトを指定する必要があります。このデモを簡単にするために、タイトルRandom Numberのラベル、プレースホルダーとして機能するラベルを追加します。生成される乱数_、および関数Generateを呼び出すボタンgenerate

私の.kvファイルは以下のコードのように見えますが、要件に合わせてさまざまな値をいじることができます。

<boxLayout>:
    orientation: "vertical"
    Label:
        text: "Random Number"
        font_size: 30
        color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

    Label:
        text: "_"
        font_size: 30

    Button:
        text: "Generate"
        font_size: 15 

このmain.pyファイルではLabel、KivyファイルがUIを処理するため、importステートメントは不要になりました。ただし、boxlayoutKivyファイルで使用するをインポートする必要があります。

メインファイルで、importステートメントを追加し、main.pyファイルを編集return BoxLayout()してbuildメソッドで読み取る必要があります。

from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout

上記のコマンドを実行すると、乱数のタイトル、_プレースホルダー、およびクリック可能なgenerateボタンを備えたシンプルなインターフェイスが表示されます。

レンダリングされた乱数アプリ

Kivyファイルを機能させるために何もインポートする必要がなかったことに注意してください。基本的に、アプリを実行するboxlayoutと、クラスと同じ名前のKivyファイル内のファイルを検索して戻ります。これはシンプルなインターフェースであり、アプリを必要に応じて堅牢にすることができます。Kv言語のドキュメントを必ず確認してください。

乱数関数を生成する

アプリがほぼ完成したので、ユーザーがgenerateボタンをクリックしたときに乱数を生成し、その乱数をアプリのインターフェイスにレンダリングする簡単な関数が必要になります。そのためには、ファイル内のいくつかの変更を行う必要があります。

まず、で乱数を生成するために使用するモジュールをインポートしますimport random。次に、生成された番号を呼び出す関数またはメソッドを作成します。このデモでは、私は間の範囲を使用します02000。このrandom.randint(0, 2000)コマンドを使用すると、乱数を簡単に生成できます。これをすぐにコードに追加します。

次に、独自のバージョンとなる別のクラスを作成しますbox layout。このbox layoutクラスは、乱数を生成してインターフェイス上でレンダリングするメソッドを含むクラスを継承する必要があります。

class MyRoot(BoxLayout):
    def __init__(self):
        super(MyRoot, self).__init__()

そのクラス内で、generate乱数を生成するだけでなく、Kivyファイルに乱数として表示されるものを制御するラベルを操作するメソッドを作成します。

この方法に対応するには、最初に.kvファイルに変更を加える必要があります。以来MyRootクラスが継承しているbox layout、あなたが作ることができるMyRootあなたのトップレベルの要素.kvファイルを:

<MyRoot>:
    BoxLayout:
        orientation: "vertical"
        Label:
            text: "Random Number"
            font_size: 30
            color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

        Label:
            text: "_"
            font_size: 30

        Button:
            text: "Generate"
            font_size: 15

でインデントされたすべてのUI仕様を保持していることに注意してくださいBox Layout。この後、生成された番号を保持するIDをラベルに追加して、generate関数が呼び出されたときに簡単に操作できるようにする必要があります。このファイルのIDと、上部のメインコードの別のIDとの関係を、次のBoxLayout行の直前に指定する必要があります。

<MyRoot>:
    random_label: random_label
    BoxLayout:
        orientation: "vertical"
        Label:
            text: "Random Number"
            font_size: 30
            color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

        Label:
            id: random_label
            text: "_"
            font_size: 30

        Button:
            text: "Generate"
            font_size: 15

このrandom_label: random_label行は基本的に、IDrandom_labelを持つラベルがファイルrandom_label内にマップされることをmain.py意味します。つまり、操作random_labelするアクションはすべて、指定された名前のラベルにマップされます。

これで、メインファイルに乱数を生成するメソッドを作成できます。

def generate_number(self):
    self.random_label.text = str(random.randint(0, 2000))

# notice how the class method manipulates the text attributre of the random label by a# ssigning it a new random number generate by the 'random.randint(0, 2000)' funcion. S# ince this the random number generated is an integer, typecasting is required to make # it a string otherwise you will get a typeError in your terminal when you run it.

MyRootこのクラスは、以下のコードのようになります。

class MyRoot(BoxLayout):
    def __init__(self):
        super(MyRoot, self).__init__()

    def generate_number(self):
        self.random_label.text = str(random.randint(0, 2000))

おめでとう!これで、アプリのメインファイルが完成しました。あとは、generateボタンがクリックされたときに必ずこの関数を呼び出すようにしてください。ファイルのon_press: root.generate_number()ボタン選択部分に行を追加するだけで済み.kvます。

<MyRoot>:
    random_label: random_label
    BoxLayout:
        orientation: "vertical"
        Label:
            text: "Random Number"
            font_size: 30
            color: 0, 0.62, 0.96

        Label:
            id: random_label
            text: "_"
            font_size: 30

        Button:
            text: "Generate"
            font_size: 15
            on_press: root.generate_number()

これで、アプリを実行できます。

Androidでアプリをコンパイルする

Androidでアプリをコンパイルする前に、Windowsユーザーにとって悪いニュースがあります。Androidアプリケーションをコンパイルするには、LinuxまたはmacOSが必要です。ただし、個別のLinuxディストリビューションを用意する必要はなく、代わりに仮想マシンを使用できます。

完全なAndroid.apkアプリケーションをコンパイルして生成するには、Buildozerというツールを使用します。以下のコマンドのいずれかを使用して、ターミナルからBuildozerをインストールしましょう。

pip3 install buildozer
//
pip install buildozer

次に、Buildozerに必要な依存関係のいくつかをインストールします。私はLinuxErgoを使用しているので、Linux固有のコマンドを使用します。これらのコマンドを1つずつ実行する必要があります。

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y git zip unzip openjdk-13-jdk python3-pip autoconf libtool pkg-config zlib1g-dev libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev libtinfo5 cmake libffi-dev libssl-dev

pip3 install --upgrade Cython==0.29.19 virtualenv 

# add the following line at the end of your ~/.bashrc file
export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin/

特定のコマンドを実行した後、を実行しbuildozer initます。以下のスクリーンショットのような出力が表示されます。

Buildozerの初期化が成功しました

上記のコマンドはBuildozer.specファイルを作成します。このファイルを使用して、アプリの名前やアイコンなどをアプリに指定.specできます。ファイルは次のコードブロックのようになります。

#    List as sections
#
#    You can define all the "list" as [section:key].
#    Each line will be considered as a option to the list.
#    Let's take [app] / source.exclude_patterns.
#    Instead of doing:
#
#[app]
#source.exclude_patterns = license,data/audio/*.wav,data/images/original/*
#
#    This can be translated into:
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns]
#license
#data/audio/*.wav
#data/images/original/*
#


#    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#    Profiles
#
#    You can extend section / key with a profile
#    For example, you want to deploy a demo version of your application without
#    HD content. You could first change the title to add "(demo)" in the name
#    and extend the excluded directories to remove the HD content.
#
#[app@demo]
#title = My Application (demo)
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns@demo]
#images/hd/*
#
#    Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:
#
#buildozer --profile demo android debug

アイコン、要件、ロード画面などを指定する場合は、このファイルを編集する必要があります。アプリケーションに必要なすべての編集を行った後buildozer -v android debug、アプリディレクトリから実行して、アプリケーションをビルドおよびコンパイルします。特に低速のマシンを使用している場合は、これに時間がかかることがあります。

プロセスが完了すると、端末にいくつかのログが表示され、ビルドが成功したことを確認できます。

Androidの成功したビルド

また、binディレクトリにアプリのAPKバージョンが必要です。これは、携帯電話にインストールして実行するアプリケーションの実行可能ファイルです。

binディレクトリのAndroid.apk

結論

おめでとう!このチュートリアルをステップバイステップで実行した場合は、電話に単純な乱数ジェネレーターアプリがインストールされているはずです。それをいじって、いくつかの値を微調整してから、再構築してください。再構築の実行は、最初のビルドほど時間はかかりません。

ご覧のとおり、Pythonを使用したモバイルアプリケーションの構築は、使用しているフレームワークまたはモジュールに精通している限り、かなり簡単です。とにかく、ロジックは同じ方法で実行されます。

Kivyモジュールとそのウィジェットに慣れてください。すべてを一度に知ることはできません。プロジェクトを見つけて、できるだけ早く足を濡らすだけです。ハッピーコーディング。
