asynckivy

library0.11.0pypypiunverified

Async library for Kivy, providing async/await support for Kivy event loop, touch events, animations, and transitions. Current version 0.10.0 supports Python >=3.10 and <4.0. Released roughly every few months with occasional breaking changes as APIs are deprecated and removed.

run_asynckivy

✓ from asynckivy import run_asynckivy

✗ from asynckivy import run_asynckivy

This example starts a Kivy app asynchronously and waits for a button press using the event() coroutine.

import asynckivy from kivy.app import App from kivy.uix.button import Button class TestApp(App): def build(self): return Button(text='Click me') async def main(): app = TestApp() # Run the app asynchronously async with asynckivy.run_asynckivy(app): await asynckivy.event(app.root, 'on_press') print('Button was pressed!') asynckivy.start(main())

Debug

Known issues

breakingThe `anim_with_xxx` APIs (except `anim_with_ratio`) are deprecated as of 0.9.1 and will be removed in a future version. Use the new `transition` submodule for animations.

fix

Replace `anim_with_xxx` calls with equivalent `asynckivy.transition` functions (e.g., `fade_in`, `slide`).

affects: >=0.9.1

breakingIn version 0.7.0, `anim_with_ratio` no longer ends on its own (was removed from auto-ending). You must explicitly cancel or await completion.

fix

Use `managed_start` or explicitly await the animation task with cancellation.

affects: >=0.7.0

deprecated`fade_transition` (from the module) is deprecated as of 0.9.0; use `asynckivy.transition.fade` instead.

fix

Import `asynckivy.transition` and use `asynckivy.transition.fade(...)`.

affects: >=0.9.0

gotcha`managed_start` is required to properly cancel tasks on app exit. Otherwise tasks may continue indefinitely.

fix

Use `managed_start` for task spawning (see quickstart).

affects: >=0.7.1

breakingPython 3.9 support dropped in v0.9.1. asynckivy 0.10.0 requires Python >=3.10.

fix

Upgrade Python to 3.10 or later.

affects: >=0.9.1

gotcha`event()` coroutine expects a widget and a single event name (string). Not the same as Kivy's `bind`; it waits for the event to fire once.

fix

Use `await asynckivy.event(widget, 'on_touch_down')` (not `bind`).

affects: all
