When will OMZ release an Xcode Template for Python3?
-
@omz I successfully update my app in the App Store using the new template. I did have to add more #import 'pythonista' lines to get it to work.
One question I have is it deletes the database I am using when it does the update do you know if there is a way to prevent this? The database is created in the script folder by Pythonista when it first runs the app unless the database already exists. I have not had this problem with any other updates to the app that I have done.

@vignesh Are you archiving your app before uploading? If that is not working export your .ipa file and use the application loader instead that usually solves the problem you are describing.
-
@RomSpy which files did you have to add the #import 'pythonista' line on? Even on application loader I am still getting the same error
-
@vignesh You need to add it to every .py file in the template. You shouldn’t get an upload error just the code not signed error from not having the import Pythonista.
Try this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46463778/xcode-9-an-error-occurred-uploading-to-the-itunes-store
-
@RomSpy I tried what was provided in the stackoverflow, but it did not make a difference. Do you happen to remember which files from the Pythonista3Xcode Template you had to add the #import 'pythonista' line to? I already did the one for the py3kit_preflight.py
-
I find the template and the info on how to use the template to be in Dropbox and scattered across numerous forum threads. It would be more helpful if the up-to-date template with docs and a few working examples were in a repo. https://github.com/omz/PythonistaAppTemplate or other.
-
@vignesh you have to fix every .py file. Are you getting code signing errors?
-
@vignesh I will upload the fixed template for you later today.
-
@JonB I looked into it more and I'm pretty sure I am
-
@RomSpy Thank you so much!
-
-
@RomSpy So in the updated template, in the Py3kit_preflight.py file, there is no "#import pythonista' " statement at the beginning, was this intentional?
-
@RomSpy with the updated template, I am still getting code signing errors :(
-
It was not intentional I must have uploaded the wrong file. Sorry. I will get a new one.
-
@vignesh sorry I pasted the wrong link. I have both the original and the modified template in my Dropbox. https://www.dropbox.com/s/mvzc0lhhv6pcfju/Pythonista3AppTemplate Updated.zip?dl=0
-
@RomSpy it worked and my app is waiting on review now thank you!!
-
@vignesh You’re welcome.

It looks like my workaround for High Sierra has stopped working on Mojave... Replacing the
fileutility that Xcode uses doesn't seem entirely trivial, due to System Integrity Protection.I still have a Mac with High Sierra to upload builds, but I think I'll have to change my approach pretty soon, and there isn't really much of a point releasing the Py3 template as it is, because it's probably broken for everyone on Mojave…
If I don't find a better way, I might just package the standard library as a zip file, and unzip it on first launch, but that would require more storage space and also slow down the first launch.
-
@omz The version I have posted works on Mojave
-
@omz From what I read, the file ~/.magic is checked by
filebefore using the usual /usr/share/misc/magic.mgc, though maybe that is not documented anywhere. So you might try crafting a file there and see if you can get file to change its output.
