(1.4GB)
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1WO07-OL50_VDNESDRUaDhXSmM/edit

Username: kivy
Password: kivy123
Usage::

1. Download the `python for android on ubuntu 12.04` image.

2. Extract the image file, and launch the `Python for Android - Ubuntu 12.04.vbox`
 file from that folder, it should open with your installation of VirtualBox.

3. Start The Virtual Machine, the machine should auto-login you to a clean desktop
 with a Readme.txt. Open the read-me and go through it if you want to get familiar
 with the setup.

4. Copy your App to the Virtual Machine.

5. Now you can build the apk. Open a Terminal, go to the default distribution
 directory and build your apk by running the following commands.

   cd ~/android/python-for-android/dist/default/
   ./build.py --package your.package.name --name your_app_name --version 1.0 --dir /path/to/your/app debug installd

this works nicely on my MBP, except keyboard, but very good work, thanks a ton !

[qua-non]

Glad you liked it. Seems like a solution is available for the keyboard issue https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/1871#comment:8

Thank you for making this VirtualBox image.
Will it only work with kivy-UI ?

i tried it with my PY4A / SL4A script and get this error:

 I/python(6096): AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Android'

[qua-non]

This is just a deployment of the python for android for convenience

The project is located at https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android,

And the documentation at http://python-for-android.rtfd.org

As this clarifies this is different from pgs4a or sl4a.

Will it only work with kivy-UI ?

For now kivy ui is the only UI library that is in the recepies.
That said you can create recepie for your own.

Updated File available at https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1WO07-OL50_bTR0SElrLTZGWEU/edit includes latest sources for kivy, python for android on top of Ubuntu 12.10 size 935 MB.

Can you help me on the specifics of step 4, copy app to the virtual machine? Thanks a bunch.

Use shared folders option in virtualbox.

Hello qua-non,

I have tried the update virtual machine (Ubuntu 12.10).
Unfortunately Ubuntu 12.10 is no longer supported (no LTS version).

When running './distribute.sh -m "kivy"' I get errors with file "kivy/graphics/svg.c".

Would it please be possible to get an updated virtual machine with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS?

Best regards, Rudolf


[qua non]

@Rudolf the updated virtual machine linked to is 14.10 not 12.10 I guess you got the older version.

[Rudolf Reuter]

Hello qua-non,

Thank for your answer.
Unfortunately I did not found the updated version (Ubuntu 14.04).
I search at:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1WO07-OL50_bTR0SElrLTZGWEU/edit
and looked for "Details".
There I have seen:
size: 930 MB
Changed: 20.12.2012, 19:39

Could you please give me the updated download link?

Regards, Rudolf

Hello qua non,

Thank you very much for the virtual machine (LUbuntu 14.04) update.

I have installed it and configured for Germany :-).

As far as I understand, you should connect your Android device 

per USB to the virtual machine, and enable it for USB debugging.

I hope, I have time to try it at the weekend. I will let you know.

Best regards, Rudolf
