PyObjC Framework CallKit provides Python wrappers for Apple's CallKit framework on macOS. It allows Python applications to interact with the system's call services, manage incoming and outgoing calls, and integrate with VoIP functionality. PyObjC frameworks typically follow the release cadence of macOS SDK updates, with frequent minor and patch releases to support new features and address compatibility.
pip install pyobjc-framework-callkitVerified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.
This quickstart demonstrates how to import and instantiate a core CallKit class, `CXCallController`. While the instantiation itself is functional, a complete CallKit integration requires a full macOS application with proper entitlements and event loop management. The commented section shows how you would typically initiate a call action.
Upgrade Python to 3.10 or later.
Upgrade Python to 3.9 or later.
Upgrade to PyObjC 10.3.1 or later, or ensure your Python classes implement their own `__new__` if they rely on `__init__` in conjunction with `objc.super`.
Review code interacting with Objective-C 'init' methods for potential changes in object lifecycle and reference counting, especially if manual memory management was previously assumed or if objects were unexpectedly deallocated/retained.
Ensure your development and deployment environment is macOS with Xcode Command Line Tools installed.
