When will OMZ release an Xcode Template for Python3?

vignesh

Is it in the works? As soon as its available I'll be able to move forward on a lot of projects.

+1 For python 3. @omz

Here's a first attempt at a Python 3-based Xcode template: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5l94m0xjbot5je0/Pythonista3AppTemplate.zip?dl=1

This is roughly equivalent to the current App Store version (not the 3.3 beta), and not final, just something to play around with for people interested in the Xcode template. Let me know if anything's unclear.

Thank you! I will give it a try.

RomSpy

So far it works great! Everything that wasn't working on the old template works now.

thank you I will try it!

@omz in this new template do you guys have photos working?

RomSpy

@omz I am not sure if it is just me but the new template works great in the simulator but I cannot upload it to the App Store because it has the same code signing errors the previous template had.

omz

@RomSpy Could you show me a screenshot of those errors?

RomSpy

@omz it may be operator error. I found an issue with how I was signing the app. I tried to upload it again to see but I am just having connection errors right now.

@omz after messing around with the template and my code signing settings which work on the previous template this is what I found:

I added #import 'pythonista' to the pykit_preflight.py and the error went away on that file.
Also it seems that any .py file with a "#!" near the top also has code signing issues.

I may be doing something wrong as I am not that familiar with Xcode code signing but on the off chance that it is not me here is the error code.

The error received is:

ERROR ITMS-90035: "Invalid Signature. Code object is not signed at all. The file at path [Pythonista3AppTemplate.app/Frameworks/Py3Kit.framework/pylib/wave.py] is not properly signed. Make sure you have signed your application with a distribution certificate, not an ad hoc certificate or a development certificate. Verify that the code signing settings in Xcode are correct at the target level (which override any values at the project level). Additionally, make sure the bundle you are uploading was built using a Release target in Xcode, not a Simulator target. If you are certain your code signing settings are correct, choose "Clean All" in Xcode, delete the "build" directory in the Finder, and rebuild your release target.

there was a long thread about this topic. The issue is that the file command says .py files are executable, and thus need to be signed. The import pythonista was to trick file into thinking it is objc source code. It should be possuble to create a custom .mgc file that file uses to determine file types, and maybe trigger on the shebang line, etc, that makes it say it is a plain text file.

others created a script to go through every file in the template and add the import statement.

@omz is there any chance we'll get a today widget for this App Template? Maybe have two separate scripts, main.py for the main app and today_widget.py for the today widget?

@JonB Where would you put the import statements? When I say #import "pythonista" it says that 'pythonista' file not found

vignesh

@RomSpy Did you figure out how to get your app uploaded?

JonB

Sorry, i should have linked to the long thread:
https://forum.omz-software.com/topic/3744/xcode-template-for-pythonista/31?page=2

Near the middle, someone posted a script that automatically inserted #\input texinfo at the start of every file, but it required sometimes hundreds of these. Later omz said that tou could replace that with #import pythonista, which fools the filecommand. you could probably modify the script to use that instead.

@JonB

So for example, this file is the PYAAppDelegate.h and I put '#import pythonista' at the top as seen in the code excerpt below.

//
// AppDelegate.h
// Pythonista3AppTemplate
//
// Created by Ole Zorn on 25.08.18.
// Copyright © 2018 Ole Zorn. All rights reserved.
//

#import pythonista
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface PYAAppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate>

@property (strong, nonatomic) UIWindow *window;

@end

This results in an error that states "Expected "FILENAME" or <FILENAME>"

What do I do to get rid of this error?

JonB

No no no. You only add this to the python files (.py), not .h or .c or .m, etc.
