Beta expired

Let us pray

Ole is back on Twitter and there is a new version of Editorial

And the new version of Pythonista will come soon.

This a (low priority) idea for the wish list: I sometimes want to read my outlines on the Mac. What I do now is save them in pdf or some other format that the Mac understands. This works fine but I have to remember to do it after any change so that the outline will be up-to-date. A reader script in python would permit me to view an outline on the Mac or on anything that runs python and has access to the iCloud files.

Written in my todo list, but when you say "view an outline", that will say use an UI...or print it in the console of this Python interpreter.

I have never used Python on a Mac, which free app do I need?

Little (not quick but still dirty) script to be executed once by Pythonista restart (fi in your pythonista_startup.py).

When you tap help in the popup menu of a selected text

After some seconds (function of your iDevice, the number and size of your scripts), you get a list of scripts containing the selected text (case insensitive)

If you select a script, you'll get, like for Pythonista help, a small (webview) window displaying the script as an html with Python syntax highlighting, where occurrences of selected text are also highlighted (in yellow)

If you search has also results in Pythonista help, you'll see both results in the list

The script imports @jonB's swizzle module

You can find this script here

@omz Welcome back and thanks for the future version. I'm sincerely more than happy that you feel better.

@Matteo Please could you try this code as a Pythonista tool.
First, you run the tool,
then you run a script with a console output,
then, in console mode, you type the text fo search and tap the 🔍 icon, and you will watch the miracle 😀

Sure that the code is not bug free, but it is good to start, if interested

The OMTextView does not allow to set text attributes as an UITextView but you can draw on it

from objc_util import *
import clipboard
import ui
@on_main_thread
def test(sender):
	import console
	import re
	import ui
	txt = str(sender.console.text())
	if txt[-1] == '\n':
		txt = txt[:-1]
	win = ObjCClass('UIApplication').sharedApplication().keyWindow()
	main_view = win.rootViewController().view() 
	ret = ''
	def analyze(v):
		for tv in v.subviews():
			if 'OMTextView' in str(tv._get_objc_classname()):
				su = tv.superview()
				if 'OMTextEditorView' in str(su._get_objc_classname()):	
					continue	
				for sv in tv.subviews():
					if 'SUIButton_PY3' in str(sv._get_objc_classname()):
						sv.removeFromSuperview()
				if txt == '':
					return
				t = str(tv.text())
				#print('search',txt,'in',t)
				for m in re.finditer(txt, t):
					st,end=m.span()
					p1 = tv.positionFromPosition_offset_(tv.beginningOfDocument(), st)
					p2 = tv.positionFromPosition_offset_(tv.beginningOfDocument(), st+len(txt))
					rge = tv.textRangeFromPosition_toPosition_(p1,p2)
					rect = tv.firstRectForRange_(rge)	# CGRect
					x,y = rect.origin.x,rect.origin.y
					w,h = rect.size.width,rect.size.height
					#print(x,y,w,h)
					l = ui.Button()
					l.frame = (x,y,w,h)
					l.background_color = (1,0,0,0.2)
					l.corner_radius = 4
					l.border_width = 1
					tv.addSubview_(l)
			ret = analyze(tv)
			if ret:
				return ret
	ret = analyze(main_view)

@on_main_thread
def FindTextInConsole():
	global console_tv
	win = ObjCClass('UIApplication').sharedApplication().keyWindow()
	main_view = win.rootViewController().view() 
	ret = '' 
	next_is_console = False
	def analyze(v,indent):
		global next_is_console
		ret = None
		for sv in v.subviews():
			#print(indent,sv._get_objc_classname())
			if 'UILabel' in str(sv._get_objc_classname()):
				#print(indent,sv.text())
				if str(sv.text()) == '>':
					next_is_console = sv
				else:
					next_is_console = False
			elif 'OMTextView' in str(sv._get_objc_classname()):	
				if next_is_console:
					su = next_is_console.superview()
					for ssv in su.subviews():
						if 'SUIButton_PY3'in str(ssv._get_objc_classname()):
							# rerun of this script, remove previous button
							ssv.removeFromSuperview()
					b = ui.Button(name='clipboard')
					b.tint_color ='red'
					b.image = ui.Image.named('iob:ios7_search_32')
					b.background_color = 'white'
					h = su.frame().size.height
					b.frame = (2,2,h-4,h-4)
					b.action = test
					b.console = sv
					#print(dir(sv))
					retain_global(b)
					su.addSubview(ObjCInstance(b))

			ret = analyze(sv,indent+'  ')
			if ret:
				return ret
	ret = analyze(main_view,'')
	return ret

if __name__ == '__main__':	
	r = FindTextInConsole()

@Drizzel I use sqlite3 and it is very easy

You can also put a line with 3 quotes above and under these lines

'''
these 
lines 
are 
commented
''' 

@TableForGlasses In the console. Swipe from right to left to get it.

Please, all, be optimistic, patient and cool 😀

-the album has videos in there too, can pythonista display videos via the ui module?

Yes it you should need ObjectiveC, try this quick and dirty script

import photos
import time
import ui
import random
import threading
from objc_util import *


class my_thread(threading.Thread):
	def __init__(self,asset, vo):
		threading.Thread.__init__(self)
		self.asset = asset
		self.vo = vo
	def run(self):	
		asseturl = ObjCClass('AVURLAsset').alloc().initWithURL_options_(self.asset.ALAssetURL(),None)		
		i=AVPlayerItem.playerItemWithAsset_(asseturl)
		p=AVPlayer.playerWithPlayerItem_(i)
		videolayer=AVPlayerLayer.playerLayerWithPlayer_(p)
		videolayer.frame=self.vo.bounds()
		self.vo.layer().addSublayer_(videolayer)
		p.play()	
	
AVPlayerItem=ObjCClass('AVPlayerItem')
AVPlayer=ObjCClass('AVPlayer')
AVPlayerLayer=ObjCClass('AVPlayerLayer')

albums = photos.get_albums()
album = [x for x in albums if x.title=='Pastels'][0]
photos = album.assets
random.shuffle(photos)

iv = ui.ImageView()
iv.content_mode=ui.CONTENT_SCALE_ASPECT_FIT
iv.present('fullscreen', hide_title_bar=True)

v = ui.View()
v.frame = iv.frame
v.hidden = True
iv.add_subview(v)
vo = ObjCInstance(v)

dt = 0			
for photo in photos:
	#print(photo)
	if photo.media_type == 'image':
		iv.image = photo.get_ui_image()
		time.sleep(0.2)
	elif  photo.media_type == 'video':	
		phasset = ObjCInstance(photo)
		v.hidden = False
		mythread = my_thread(phasset, vo)
		mythread.start()
		time.sleep(photo.duration)
		v.hidden = True

-the fullscreen view has a large white bar at the top with a x on it. Can that be reduced in size, or even removed entirely? Assuming I then provide my own code to bring up a menu on tap to end the slideshow, skip to next image etc

Yes, via

iv.present('fullscreen', hide_title_bar=True)

As the close button is absent, To close, swipe down with two fingers

@rami this little script does not list show as an asset method

import photos
asset = photos.pick_asset()
print(dir(asset))

If you extract an ui.Image from the asset, this one has a show method.

@ihf If you use "my" old FloorPlanArea.py and if you did not change it 😉, be sure you also use the Gestures.py of @jonB in the same folder, to avoid using another Gestures module, for example, of @mikael, they could have different parameters.

@ihf Weird. I don't have any problem. Perhaps due it uses also an old Gestures module, in the same folder.

Gestures checked, same as in old Gestures

Did you restart Pythonista ?

@ihf old floorplanarea

@ihf It was floorplanarea.py , not RoomAreaFinder, and yes, it uses a fixed image, no picking

@bosco you are too kind

@bosco I run on iPad Air 5 (M1) with beta 340007. I have opened an issue in Github and @mikael will check it. No urgence, but perhaps he would be interested by your workaround. Wait and see. Thanks for helping.
