Buildozer is a tool for creating application packages easily.
The goal is to have one "buildozer.spec" file in your app directory, describing
your application requirements and settings such as title, icon, included modules
etc. Buildozer will use that spec to create a package for Android, iOS, Windows,
OSX and/or Linux.
Buildozer currently supports packaging for Android via the python-for-android
project, and for iOS via the kivy-ios project. iOS and OSX are still under work.
For Android, buildozer will automatically download and prepare the
build dependencies. For more information, see
Android-SDK-NDK-Information.
Note that only Python 3 is supported.
Note that this tool has nothing to do with the eponymous online build service
buildozer.io.
Installing Buildozer with target Python 3 (default):
Install buildozer:
# via pip (latest stable, recommended)
# if you use a virtualenv, don't use the `--user` option
pip install --user buildozer
# latest dev version
# if you use a virtualenv, don't use the `--user` option
pip install --user https://github.com/kivy/buildozer/archive/master.zip
# git clone, for working on buildozer
git clone https://github.com/kivy/buildozer
cd buildozer
python setup.py build
pip install -e .
Check buildozer is in your path
`which buildozer`
# if there is no result, and you installed with --user, add this line at the end of your `~/.bashrc` file.
export PATH=~/.local/bin/:$PATH
# and then run
. ~/.bashrc
Go into your application directory and run:
buildozer init
# edit the buildozer.spec, then
buildozer android debug deploy run
Buildozer Docker image
A Dockerfile is available to use buildozer through a Docker environment.
Build with:
docker build --tag=buildozer .
Run with:
docker run --volume "$(pwd)":/home/user/hostcwd buildozer --version
# buildozer target command
buildozer android clean
buildozer android update
buildozer android deploy
buildozer android debug
buildozer android release
# or all in one (compile in debug, deploy on device)
buildozer android debug deploy
# set the default command if nothing set
buildozer setdefault android debug deploy run
Usage
Usage:
buildozer [--profile <name>] [--verbose] [target] <command>...
buildozer --version
Available targets:
android Android target, based on python-for-android project
ios iOS target, based on kivy-ios project
Global commands (without target):
distclean Clean the whole Buildozer environment
help Show the Buildozer help
init Create an initial buildozer.spec in the current directory
serve Serve the bin directory via SimpleHTTPServer
setdefault Set the default command to run when no arguments are given
version Show the Buildozer version
Target commands:
clean Clean the target environment
update Update the target dependencies
debug Build the application in debug mode
release Build the application in release mode
deploy Deploy the application on the device
run Run the application on the device
serve Serve the bin directory via SimpleHTTPServer
Target "ios" commands:
list_identities List the available identities to use for signing.
xcode Open the xcode project.
Target "android" commands:
adb Run adb from the Android SDK. Args must come after --, or
use --alias to make an alias
logcat Show the log from the device
p4a Run p4a commands. Args must come after --, or use --alias
to make an alias
You can override the value of anybuildozer.spec config token by
setting an appropriate environment variable. These are all of the
form $SECTION_TOKEN, where SECTION is the config file section and
TOKEN is the config token to override. Dots are replaced by
underscores.
For example, here are some config tokens from the [app] section of the
config, along with the environment variables that would override them.
title -> $APP_TITLE
package.name -> $APP_PACKAGE_NAME
p4a.source_dir -> $APP_P4A_SOURCE_DIR
