@luis-murillo pandas was added to Pythonista in the last update.

Thanks, I will take a look. Did you ever get around to writing that ObjC tutorial that you mentioned in the bottom of that thread?

Is there a way to view errors when it crashes

Yes, use faulthandler from https://github.com/dgelessus/pythonista_startup/blob/master/enable_faulthandler.py

But in this case, you get a "Segmentation fault" without help to solve it. Frequent since last Pythonista update

Thanks for that. It will definitely come in handy in the future.

@cvp Thank you so much! It’s working now.

@cvp I used to use this code I found online a few years back. It use to work but doesn’t anymore. When I run it, Pythonista crashes. Is there a way to view errors when it crashes?

from objc_util import *
from ctypes import POINTER
import threading


def add_to_calendar(title, s_date, e_date):
    store = ObjCClass("EKEventStore").alloc().init()
    access_granted = threading.Event()

    def completion(_self, granted, _error):
        access_granted.set()

    completion_block = ObjCBlock(completion, argtypes=[c_void_p, c_bool, c_void_p])
    store.requestAccessToEntityType_completion_(0, completion_block)
    access_granted.wait()

    event = ObjCClass("EKEvent").eventWithEventStore_(store)
    event.title = title

    # event.allDay = True

    dateFormat = ObjCClass("NSDateFormatter").alloc().init()
    dateFormat.setDateFormat_("yyyyMMdd HH:mm")
    date1 = dateFormat.dateFromString_(s_date)
    date2 = dateFormat.dateFromString_(e_date)

    event.startDate = date1
    event.endDate = date2

    event.setCalendar_(store.defaultCalendarForNewEvents())
    LP_c_void_p = POINTER(c_void_p)
    err = LP_c_void_p()
    store.saveEvent_span_error_(event, 0, err)
    print("Event successfully added!")


if __name__ == "__main__":
    title = "Test"
    d1 = "20230808 00:00"
    d2 = "20230808 00:10"
    add_to_calendar(title, d1, d2)

@ccc Thanks, I will take a look.

Hello, I am trying to add an event to my iOS calendar with Pythonista. I have found scripts online from a few years ago that used to work but don’t seem to work for me anymore. I was wondering if someone could point me in the write direction of how to do it? I need to add multiple events with a title and each event will be an all day event.

@cvp Thank you. That solved my problem

Hello, is there a way to use photos.capture_image() to take a square photo instead?

That's handy. Would it be possible to force download all the music I have brought through the iTunes Store into the music app somehow? Right now I am having to download albums individually and it would be really neat if I could download them all with a Python script.
