    • Clearing Notability document backgrounds

      This is an appex extension script to remove PDF and color backgrounds from Notability documents. To use, open a doc in Notability, click share, use the Note format, choose Pythonista 3, choose this script. You will then get a ne "open in" dialog. Choose Notability from that dialog to re-import the modified doc.

      The script treats the note as a zip file, unpacks it, removes any PDFs, edits Session.plist to change the bg color to white, then archives the result.

      Notes:

      • Notability's format could change at any time and break this script, so use it at your own risk!!
      • I didn't try to use pip, so I 'installed' the biplist module by copy pasting it into my lib directory. I was not able to get plistlib to read the plist file.
      • camelCase var names, sorry!
      #coding: utf-8
      
      import console, shutil, appex, os.path, zipfile, os, glob, re, plistlib
      
      # Install biplist (I could not get plistlib to read the plist file, even
      # when I used fmt=plistlib.FMT_BINARY))
      # Rather than using pip, I just put the contents of this url in ./lib/biplist.py
      # https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wooster/biplist/master/biplist/__init__.py
      
      from lib.biplist import *
      
      tmpPath = './jtziptmp/'
      extractedPath = './jtziptmp/extracted/'
      tmpFileName = 'tmpfile.zip'
      newFileName = tmpPath+os.path.basename(appex.get_file_path())+'_bgstripped.note'
      shutil.rmtree(tmpPath)
      os.mkdir(tmpPath)
      os.mkdir(extractedPath)
      shutil.copy(appex.get_file_path(),tmpPath+tmpFileName)
      shutil.unpack_archive(tmpPath+tmpFileName,extractedPath)
      
      pattern = "^.*pdf$"
      mypath = extractedPath
      for root, dirs, files in os.walk(mypath):
      	for file in filter(lambda x: re.match(pattern, x), files):
      		os.remove(os.path.join(root, file)) # remove the pdf bg
      
      pattern = "^Session.plist$"
      mypath = extractedPath
      for root, dirs, files in os.walk(mypath):
      	for file in filter(lambda x: re.match(pattern, x), files):
      		plist = readPlist(os.path.join(root, file))
      		plist['$objects'][1]['paperIndex'] = 12 # set white bg
      		writePlist(plist,os.path.join(root, file))
      		
      shutil.make_archive(newFileName,'zip',extractedPath)
      shutil.move(newFileName+'.zip',newFileName)
      console.open_in(newFileName)

    • WIFI SSID

      Hi there!

      Can anyone show me how to access the current WIFI SSID via Pythonista? This would be awesome in the widget.

      Thanks,
      John
