Scripts for Kivy SDK generation on Windows, OS X and Linux

kivy-sdk-packager

kivy-sdk-packager is a collection of tools and scripts to build binaries needed by Kivy framework apps for different platforms.

Note

The name has become a misnomer as the project has evolved; it is no longer about Software Development Kits.

The tools are intended to be run in automated build environments, including Continuos Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) tools.

Each platform targeted by the Kivy framework has its own needs. Hence, the scripts for each platform are quite different in scope. This repository contains scripts Windows, macOS and Linux.

For most platforms, this repository contains behind-the-scenes scripts. There is no need for developers of Kivy apps to be aware of them.

macOS developers may want to use the scripts here for packaging, but it is recommended that they use Buildozer instead. It encapsulates the use of kivy-sdk-packager.

You can find a detailed README.md document inside every platform folder. They explain what the provided files do, what artefacts are produced, and what steps are required for each new release.

kivy-sdk-packager is managed by the Kivy Team.

Linux (Debian)

Binaries for Linux are distributed as Personal Package Archives (PPA) files. They are built by Canonical and hosted on Launchpad to the specifications (recipes) provided here.

Version	Binary	Source
Stable Build	Launchpad PPA packages	Launchpad recipes
Daily Build	Launchpad PPA packages	Launchpad recipes

More information: Linux README

macOS

Binaries for macOS are built as Disk Image (.DMG) or App (.APP) files.

These can be built on the developer's machine.

Buildozer encapsulates the use of kivy-sdk-packager so the Kivy app developer does not need to be concerned with it.

More information: macOS README

Windows

Binaries for Windows are built as wheels that can be installed via pip. They are uploaded and hosted on the Python Package Index (PyPI).

Four variants are released - they contain support for different
OpenGL ES implementations and other libraries:

Version	PyPI Name
Angle	kivy-deps.angle
Glew	kivy-deps.glew
Gstreamer	kivy-deps.gstreamer
SDL2	kivy-deps.sdl2

More information: Windows README

kivy-sdk-packager's Issues

Spaces in filenames

The Kivy and the scripts don't deal correctly for filenames with spaces.

In scripts, all variables have to become enclosed with double quotes:
e.g rm -rf "$DMG_TEMP" "$STAGING_DIR"

And $1 has to become "$1" everywhere including variables declaration which have already double quotes (e.g. APP_NAME="$(basename "$1" .app)"

Nevertheless, if the name of the filename.app contains spaces then Kivy fails to run:

/Applications/Filename with spaces.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 9: /Applications/Filename: No such file or directory
/Applications/Filename with spaces.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 26: /Applications/Filename: No such file or directory
/Applications/Filename with spaces.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 26: exec: /Applications/Filename : cannot execute: No such file or directory

The spaces (and other special character) in the filename is a useful feature for Mac OS because this name shows up in the "Applications".

package_app.py / OSX: Garden deps also for the non-main app?

Hi,

I have the following setup: A supervisor app launches the 'real' GUI using subprocess.check_ouput('gui_script'). In case the app crashes the supervisor will show a crash report which can be submitted. The problem now is that the 'real' app has garden.matplotlib as dependency which doesn't work ('KeyError: 'kivy.garden.matplotlib''). Also copying the libs directory to the 'real' apps dir didn't work. Do you have an idea how I could get this to work on OSX using package_app.py?

Kivy 1.9 on Windows 7 - no module named kivy

Hello, I have huge problem with run kivy on windows. I have uninstalled all my previous python version but still nothing. I also have tried run with "open with" and "send to" and directly from kivy_bash.bat

Everytime I get error "no module named kivy".

I am trying to run example "hello world" button.

http://pastebin.com/q9U57cVj

Don't work with 3.4 neither 2.7 version.

wrong kivy directory in bash

https://github.com/kivy/kivy-sdk-packager/blob/master/win/data/kivyenv.sh#L57 should probably have $KIVY_DIR.

Hello,
After running command "./create-osx-bundle.sh" without any parameters on latest macosx it resolved with this error. Why?

PPA doesn't include all dependencies for providers (clipboard/spelling/...)

The PPA kivy-daily doesn't include some providers in its dependencies (and of course, the stable PPA isn't up-to-date anyhow).

Clipboard:

• python-gi (gtk3)
• klipper (dbusklipper)
• SDL2 (sdl2)

Spelling:

• pyenchant (enchant)

There are probably some others that should be included in one way or another. kivy/__init__.py has a list of all supported providers, although some are platform-specific.

How to package garden dependencies (on OSX)

Hi,

so I'm trying to package my app with a garden dep (matplotlib). How do I do that?
I installed matplotlib with --app in the app dir but is that enough? Doing 'kivy main.py' works without problems.
I can successfully run package_app.py, but launching the .app does not work.
I then randomly launched 'myapp.app/Contents/MacOS/Kivy' which apparently prints some debugging info and here the following error appears:

...
 ValueError: 'path/to/myapp.app/Contents/Resources/yourapp/libs/garden/garden.matplotlib/__init__.py/__init__.pyc' is not a package

So I'm assuming something's wrong with my garden dependencies. Any ideas?

Gstreamer_dev missing header file in wheel - gstconfig.h

There's a missing file in wheels since 0.1.6 (including), which breaks compilation. For Travis and Appveyor was used only the one from pypi, which has the file in it.

'python.exe' not recognized as a command

Hello.
I have installed Kivy with the following self extracting file : http://kivy.org/downloads/1.9.0/Kivy-1.9.0-py2.7-win32-x86.exe
Then I have copied kivy-27.bat in SendTo folder.
Then I tried to start Kivy-1.9.0-py2.7-win32-x86\kivy27\examples\demo\showcase\main.py just like the demo using send to, and it returned the error 'python.exe' not recognized as a command.
Did I miss something?

I also have another python (with kivy) installed because it was the package. Do you know if there is any easy & safe soluce to install kivy in my main python folder, on windows 7?

Thank you! 😄

Environment variables in 'script' use names of dir and files that do not exist in Resources folder

In the file Resources/script these environment variables, amongst others, are created:

export DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH="${SCRIPT_PATH}/lib"
export LD_PRELOAD_PATH="${SCRIPT_PATH}/lib"
export GST_REGISTRY="${SCRIPT_PATH}/gst.registry"

Whereas the entries lib, gst.registry, and .kivy do not exist in Resources which is the ${SCRIPT_PATH} in Kivy-1.9.0-osx.dmg.

The packaged macOS app should contain binaries for both Apple Silicon and Intel (Universal2)

The packaged macOS app should contain binaries for both Apple Silicon and Intel (Universal2).

I'm already working on that to handle the Kivy.app build (See kivy/kivy#7678)

Drag/drop of python script onto Kivy.app doesn't work as stated, have workaround

The directions on https://kivy.org/doc/stable/guide/packaging-osx.html#:
$ kivy -m pip install
don't work, I think because MakeSymlinks probably doesn't work (Kivy.app vs Kivy2.app perhaps).

What does work is (I did this on copy of installed app w/ 2 dropped from name):
$ cd //Kivy.App/Contents/Resources/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages
$ pip install urllib3 -t .
$ pip install botocore -t .
$ pip install boto3 -t .

Now drag/drop script works.

git and the rest of msysgit are not available from kivy.bat

Is not compatible with brew installed GNU findutils

the GNU find has no option of -E

Update MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET

Hi,
so as per libsdl-org/SDL#7563 the MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET needs to be updated with the new macOS versions. Is there any meantime hot fix? I tried to update it in "create-osx-bundle.sh" but sadly it wasn't enough. Where else should I updated it?

Dependant packages containing dylib files are corrupted

After packaging an app that has a dependant package in which there is a dylib file the dylib file is corrupted and a lot smaller then the original.

Hunch: Whitespace is being cleaned and remove from the dylib binary

Workaround: copy the effected file from source to the appropriate place in the .app folder.

Cannot upgrade pip: kivy -m pip install -U pip

From @miohtama on January 2, 2017 6:19

Kivy3 OSX cannot upgrade pip version shipped with it. It fails for some command line argument parsing reasons, probably due to how the underlying pip command is wrapper.

Path with yourapp in package-app.sh on OS X

I tried to use package-app.sh to generate .app but I'm not sure about the output directory structure. Running:

$ package-app.sh /path/to/my/project

The result project.app contains my code in /Contents/Resources/yourapp/project but Kivy expects main.py in /Contents/Resources/yourapp/ so it won't run.

I think the problem is line 31 in package-app.sh where:

cp -a $1 ${APPPATH}/Contents/Resources/yourapp

Should be:

cp -a $1/* ${APPPATH}/Contents/Resources/yourapp

Include 2.0.4 release for packaging next release.

SDL2 2.0.4 should be used for packaging our next release 1.9.1.

Windows portable package conflicts with installed Python

When you download Kivy from the following page for Windows (tested with Python 3.4): http://kivy.org/#download
and the host Windows system already has Python (3.4) installed with Environment Variables:
Path: C:\Python34;C:\Python34\Scripts;
PYTHONPATH: C:\Python34;C:\Python34\Lib;C:\Python34\DLLs;C:\Python34\Lib\lib-tk;C:\Python34\Lib\site-packages;C:\Python34\Lib\site-packages\opencv

the kivy.bat uses the system's Python instead of the Python inside the portable package.

It would be nice that both Python's can co-exist without the need to remove Python from the Systems's Environment Variables.

The SDL2 version changes break the daily PPA

kivy-sdk-packager/linux/debian/daily/control

Lines 194 to 197 in db9015b

	libsdl2-2.0,
	libsdl2-image-2.0 | python-gi | python3-pil,
	libsdl2-mixer-2.0 | libgstreamer-1.0,
	libsdl2-ttf-2.0 | python3-pil,

I don't quite understand why, but if you don't specify the full versions, it breaks package dependency resolution.

Please revert to:

         libsdl2-2.0-0,
         libsdl2-image-2.0-0 | python-gi | python3-pil,
         libsdl2-mixer-2.0-0 | libgstreamer-1.0,
         libsdl2-ttf-2.0-0 | python3-pil,

And maybe libgstreamer-1.0-0, too.

MakeSymlinks refers to Kivy.App instead of Kivy.app

Port of kivy/kivy#3590.
In the OSX installation disk image, the MakeSymlinks script refers to Kivy.App rather than Kivy.app. For case insensitive file systems, that might work fine. But installation for case sensitive file systems doesn't work until you change the 'a'.

Having tried every single method of osx app building, all work w/ demo, none w/ deps

Demo apps from gallery w/o dependencies all work w/ various build methods.

No documented build method works (as documented) for an osx app w/ dependencies:
urllib3, botocore, boto3.

The same osx app's python script w/ the above dependencies does work via drag/drop onto Kivy.app provided that the dependencies have been pre-pip-ed using

pip install <dependency> -t <path to kivy.app venv>

Directions for setting up osx app via "Using the Kivy SDK" don't work as stated

https://kivy.org/doc/stable/guide/packaging-osx.html

This:
osx> ./package-app.sh /path/to/your/<app_folder_name>/
there is no "package-app.sh", should read:
osx> python ./package_app.py /path/to/your/<app_folder_name>/ ...
where ... is all the params from:
osx> python ./package_app.py --help

Also this:
"osx> cp -a /Applications/Kivy.app ./Kivy.App"
after a Python 2 install should read:
"osx> cp -a /Applications/Kivy2.app ./Kivy.App"

The app, as built, still doesn't work though.

macOS: create-osx-bundle.sh outdated

Just downloaded kivy-sdk-packager to test it out. Docs say it requires platypus, so brew install platypus.
When run, create-osx-bundle.sh complains about platypus not found. Dug into the script and saw it being hardcoded to /usr/local/bin/platypus, but homebrew installs to /opt/homebrew/bin/platypus.
Ok, no problem, change the script and rerun.
Now it complains about /usr/local/share/platypus/ScriptExec not found, 'coz Homebrew (latest version) doesn't install there anymore.
Perhaps it's time to bring this script up-to-date with homebrew's platypus.

Revert revrted too much

Hey @thopiekar, it seems the revert you did removed all the recent changes to the win folder and probably mac as well. Can you unrevert the revert and then only revert specific commits?

Cannot execute python after running create-osx-bundle.sh

I wanted to package my application and ran create-osx-bundle.sh. The script seemed to have run to completion. However, when I proceeded to the next steps outlined in the osx/readme.md, any attempt to run a python command fails with the Error:
ImportError: No module named site

This only happens when the virtual environment is activated (kivy-sdk-packager/osx/Parcoursplaner.app/Contents/Resources/venv/bin). With the venv deactivated python still functions normally. The same issue occurs when i try to run buildozer

The script threw a couple errors for multiple .DS_Store files, though i suppose that's not causing my issue:
+ osxrelocator -r . /usr/local/lib/ @executable_path/Contents/lib/ /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/objdump: error: './Contents/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/.DS_Store': The end of the file was unexpectedly encountered

I piped the logs into a .txt file. I attached these logs aswell as the statements that were written into the terminal as files to this issue.
log_shell.txt

My Setup:

OS: MacOS 11.2.1

Shell script flags: ./create-osx-bundle.sh -n Parcoursplaner -v "0.0.1a" -a "Linus" -g 0

Building Kivy.app fails because of "virtualenv --relocatable"

Hello,

I am trying to bundle Kivy.app for later use in my application bundle:

cd kivy-sdk-packager/osx
sh ./create-osx-bundle.sh 1.11.1 3.7.7

This command fails after a while with the following error:

It seems like "virtualenv" deprecated this command line option (pypa/virtualenv#1549). If there would be a way to downgrade virtualenv to the last working version it would be fine I guess. Please advise how to fix.
