[share ] crappy code using requests, ui.TableView

[Phuket2]

Just been trying to help a friend with some example code. It's not good, but still gives some ideas... like food for thought

# coding: utf-8



import ui
import requests, json

_site = '''https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bahamas10/css-color-names/master/css-color-names.json'''


def get_json_data_from_site(website):
	# generic url request for json data
	# will fail if the url does not return json data....
	# can avoid this with some simple checks, but is just an example
	return requests.get(website).json()
	
def make_cell(tv, section, row):
	data = tv.data_source.items
	_key = data.keys()[row]
	cell = ui.TableViewCell()
	cell.frame = (0,0,ui.get_screen_size()[0] ,44)
	cell.background_color = data.get(_key)
	lb = ui.Label(frame = cell.bounds)
	lb.text = _key
	lb.alignment = ui.ALIGN_CENTER
	lb.font = ('Avenir Next Condensed', 28)
	cell.content_view.add_subview(lb)
	return cell
	 
class DSO (object):
	
	def tableview_number_of_sections(self, tv):
		# Return the number of sections (defaults to 1)
		return 1
	

	def tableview_number_of_rows(self, tv, section):
		# Return the number of rows in the section
		return len(tv.data_source.items.keys())

	def tableview_cell_for_row(self, tv, section, row):
		# Create and return a cell for the given section/row
		return make_cell(tv, section, row)
		'''
		cell = ui.TableViewCell()
		cell.text_label.text = 'Foo Bar'
		return cell
		'''
	'''
	def tableview_title_for_header(self, tv, section):
		# Return a title for the given section.
		# If this is not implemented, no section headers will be shown.
		return 'Some Section'
	'''

	def tableview_can_delete(self, tv, section, row):
		# Return True if the user should be able to delete the given row.
		return True

	def tableview_can_move(self, tv, section, row):
		# Return True if a reordering control should be shown for the given row (in editing mode).
		return True

	def tableview_delete(self, tv, section, row):
		# Called when the user confirms deletion of the given row.
		pass

	def tableview_move_row(self, tv, from_section, from_row, to_section, to_row):
		# Called when the user moves a row with the reordering control (in editing mode).
		pass
