problems while building android apk with numpy recipe

[sulabh tiwari]

I am using example from Kivy documentation, only line i added is import numpy. After packaging it for android i cant run on my phone it never starts. However on removing this line and then building works fine.

python file: main.py

__version__="1.0.0"
import colorsys
import numpy as np
import kivy
kivy.require('1.0.7')

from kivy.animation import Animation
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.button import Button

class TestApp(App):

    def animate(self, instance):
        # create an animation object. This object could be stored
        # and reused each call or reused across different widgets.
        # += is a sequential step, while &= is in parallel
        animation = Animation(pos=(100, 100), t='out_bounce')
        animation += Animation(pos=(200, 100), t='out_bounce')
        animation &= Animation(size=(500, 500))
        animation += Animation(size=(100, 50))

        # apply the animation on the button, passed in the "instance" argument
        # Notice that default 'click' animation (changing the button
        # color while the mouse is down) is unchanged.
        animation.start(instance)

    def build(self):
        # create a button, and  attach animate() method as a on_press handler
        button = Button(size_hint=(None, None), text='plop',
                        on_press=self.animate)
        return button

if __name__ == '__main__':
    TestApp().run()

#    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#    List as sections
#
#    You can define all the "list" as [section:key].
#    Each line will be considered as a option to the list.
#    Let's take [app] / source.exclude_patterns.
#    Instead of doing:
#
#[app]
#source.exclude_patterns = license,data/audio/*.wav,data/images/original/*
#
#    This can be translated into:
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns]
#license
#data/audio/*.wav
#data/images/original/*
#


#    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#    Profiles
#
#    You can extend section / key with a profile
#    For example, you want to deploy a demo version of your application without
#    HD content. You could first change the title to add "(demo)" in the name
#    and extend the excluded directories to remove the HD content.
#
#[app@demo]
#title = My Application (demo)
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns@demo]
#images/hd/*
#
#    Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:
#
#buildozer --profile demo android debug

i am not sure what mistake i have done.

I'm running into the same problem, after I import numpy on buildozer.spec, I get the error of scimath not found. If I try to put scymath on the requirements I get this error:

# Command failed: pip install --download-cache=/home/andre/.buildozer/cache --target=/home/andre/.buildozer/applibs scimath

# 

# Buildozer failed to execute the last command

# The error might be hidden in the log above this error

# Please read the full log, and search for it before

# raising an issue with buildozer itself.

# In case of a bug report, please add a full log with log_level = 2

Hey,
Have you found a way to fix it? I'm stuck roughly at the same place, I cant compile the app with numpy
Any suggestions?

Thank you.
