Open source UI framework written in Python, running on Windows, Linux, macOS, Android and iOS

Last update: Jan 07, 2023

Overview

Kivy

Innovative user interfaces made easy.

Kivy is an open source, cross-platform Python framework for the development of applications that make use of innovative, multi-touch user interfaces. The aim is to allow for quick and easy interaction design and rapid prototyping whilst making your code reusable and deployable.

Kivy is written in Python and Cython, based on OpenGL ES 2, supports various input devices and has an extensive widget library. With the same codebase, you can target Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. All Kivy widgets are built with multitouch support.

Kivy is MIT licensed, actively developed by a great community and is supported by many projects managed by the Kivy Organization.

Installation, Documentation and Examples

Extensive installation instructions as well as tutorials and general documentation, including an API reference, can be found at https://kivy.org/docs. A PDF version is also available.

Kivy ships with many examples which can be found in the examples folder.

Problem

If you want to do some stuff after kv rules are applied, you can't write like this:

Builder.load_string('''
<MyWidget>:
    Label:
        id: label
''')

class MyWidget(Widget):
    def __init__(self, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(**kwargs)
        label = self.ids.label  # A
        # do some stuff for label

because kv rules ain't always applied inside __init__().

# This code causes "KeyError: 'label'" at line A
widget = Builder.load_string('''
Widget:
    MyWidget:
''')

Workaround?

One workaround for the problem might be this:

class MyWidget(Widget):
    def __init__(self, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(**kwargs)
        def after_rules_are_applied(__):
            label = self.ids.label
            # do some stuff for label
        Clock.schedule_once(after_rules_are_applied)

but in this case, you have another problem. You can't use MyWidget right after the instantiation because the instance is not fully initialized until the Clock ticks.

widget = MyWidget()  # the instance is not fully initialized!!

so this PR

This PR gives the user a guaranteed opportunity to initialize widget after applying kv rules by implementing special method __post_kv__().

class MyWidget(Factory.Widget):
    def __post_kv__(self):
        label = self.ids.label
        # do some stuff for label

Do you think this kind of feature is necessary?

Raspbian 4.19 Buster RPi4B Install Instructions
This is a request to share my successful kivy installation instructions for Raspbian 4.19 Buster Desktop OS running on Raspberry Pi 3B+ and RPi4B:4GB.

For issues relative to the Buster Lite (without Desktop), please refer to Issue https://github.com/kivy/kivy/issues/6474.

Versions

Raspberry Pi 3B+ and 4B (4GB RAM)

Python: 3.7.3

OS: 4.19 Buster Desktop (2019-07-10)

Kivy: 1.11.1

Kivy installation method:

sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade sudo apt install libsdl2-dev libsdl2-image-dev libsdl2-mixer-dev libsdl2-ttf-dev pkg-config libgl1-mesa-dev libgles2-mesa-dev python3-setuptools libgstreamer1.0-dev git-core gstreamer1.0-plugins-{bad,base,good,ugly} gstreamer1.0-{omx,alsa} python3-dev libmtdev-dev xclip xsel libjpeg-dev python3 -m pip install --upgrade --user pip setuptools python3 -m pip install --upgrade --user Cython==0.29.10 pillow sudo pip3 install kivy

Description

These install instructions so far have been successful in initial tests using the screenmanagertest.py, code listing below. These same tests were used to prove the previous Raspbian OS exhibited memory leaks within minutes of execution. Initial tests with the latest Raspbian Buster release (2019-07-10) running on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ have exhibited no memory leaks within this same amount of time. More tests will be run over the next few days to confirm that smaller leaks don't show up after longer periods of time.

Note: On RPi3B, this test only executes successfully with max Kivy screen resolution of 800x600; any larger size and fullscreen results in system lockup after a few images are loaded. This may be a problem due to 1GB system RAM.

On 08/09/19, this was tested successfully with a RPi4B with 4GB system RAM Desktop that confirmed to run full screen at 1366x768. More tests will be tried in the near future to confirm 1920x1080 resolution works over long periods of time.

Core: Add async support to kivy App
This adds async support to kivy. It is a continuation from https://github.com/kivy/kivy/pull/5241.

It only adds support for async, without support for the async_bind() convenience method as requested. The event/property binding will (may) come later in a different PR.

PR info copied from the docs:

Background

Normally, when a Kivy app is run, it blocks the thread that runs it until the app exits. Internally, at each clock iteration it executes all the app callbacks, handles graphics and input, and idles by sleeping for any remaining time.

To be able to run asynchronously, the Kivy app may not sleep, but instead must release control of the running context to the asynchronous event loop running the Kivy app. We do this when idling by calling the appropriate functions of the async package being used instead of sleeping.

Async configuration

To run an async app, both the KIVY_EVENTLOOP environmental variable must be set appropriately, and :func:async_runTouchApp or :meth:App.async_run must be scheduled to run in the external async package's event loop. The variable tells kivy which async library to use when idling and :func:async_runTouchApp or :meth:App.async_run run the actual app.

The environmental variable KIVY_EVENTLOOP determines which async library to use, if at all. It can be set to one of "sync" when it should be run synchronously like a normal app, "async" when the standard library asyncio should be used, or "trio" if the trio library should be used. If not set it defaults to "sync".

In the "async" or "trio" case, one schedules :func:async_runTouchApp or :meth:App.async_run to run within the given library's async event loop as in the examples shown below. Kivy is then treated as just another coroutine that the given library runs in its event loop.

For a fuller basic and more advanced examples, see the demo apps in examples/async.

Asyncio example

import asyncio import os os.environ['KIVY_EVENTLOOP'] = 'async' from kivy.app import async_runTouchApp from kivy.uix.label import Label loop = asyncio.get_event_loop() loop.run_until_complete(async_runTouchApp(Label(text='Hello, World!'))) loop.close()

Trio example

import trio import os os.environ['KIVY_EVENTLOOP'] = 'trio' from kivy.app import async_runTouchApp from kivy.uix.label import Label trio.run(async_runTouchApp, Label(text='Hello, World!'))

Interacting with Kivy app from other coroutines

It is fully safe to interact with any kivy object from other coroutines running within the same async event loop. This is because they are all running from the same thread and the other coroutines are only executed when Kivy is idling.

Similarly, the kivy callbacks may safely interact with objects from other coroutines running in the same event loop. Normal single threaded rules apply to both case.

Examples

I added a few full examples to examples/async, and the docs are pretty complete. Please see those examples to get a fuller understanding of how this would be used.

Testing

With this PR, I also added a new way of graphically testing apps. Using pytest, I added a pytest kivy_app fixture that takes a function that returns a Kivy app, and creates a self-contained kivy app from it. With it, we can test apps super easily and they get re-created for each test. I hope this will make it much easier for people to add tests to test complex widgets. I created a UnitKivyApp base class to help with this testing as it provides some convenient methods.

Please see kivy/tests/test_app.py for various example tests and kivy/tests/async_common for the UnitKivyApp base class. I actually am using this to help test a very large app I made, which I'm not sure how I would have tested the GUI without this kind of thing.

One note, these tests are skipped for python 3.5 because support for yielding from a async def method was only added in 3.6 and we need this to help with testing.

Here's a couple of the sample tests to show how easy async make testing actual full kivy apps:

def button_app(): from kivy.app import App from kivy.uix.togglebutton import ToggleButton class TestApp(UnitKivyApp, App): def build(self): return ToggleButton(text='Hello, World!') return TestApp() @async_run(app_cls_func=button_app) async def test_button_app(kivy_app): assert kivy_app.root.text == 'Hello, World!' assert kivy_app.root.state == 'normal' async for state, touch_pos in kivy_app.do_touch_down_up( widget=kivy_app.root, widget_jitter=True): pass assert kivy_app.root.state == 'down'

And another:

def text_app(): from kivy.app import App from kivy.uix.textinput import TextInput class TestApp(UnitKivyApp, App): def build(self): return TextInput() return TestApp() @async_run(app_cls_func=text_app) async def test_text_app(kivy_app): text = kivy_app.root assert text.text == '' # activate widget async for state, touch_pos in kivy_app.do_touch_down_up(widget=text): pass async for state, value in kivy_app.do_keyboard_key(key='A', num_press=4): pass async for state, value in kivy_app.do_keyboard_key(key='q', num_press=3): pass assert text.text == 'AAAAqqq'

COMMENTS:

Non-invasive global solution for a nasty HTTPS request bug on Android physical deployments using python 3.x.

This solution is required to enable Android functionality for both: kivy.network.urlrequest
kivy.uix.image.AsyncImage

Notes about testing:

Solution implementation was manually verified for correctness in Python 3.7 on Xubuntu (Linux-Lite) 18.04, and for deployment on Android Slim 6 (ROM.)

Solution implementation, and integration was manually verified for
correctness in Python 3.8 on Xubuntu (Linux-Lite) 18.04 and deployment on Android Slim 6 (ROM.)

(Solution was not verified for Python 2.x, and does not suppose to support 2.x, nor has it been verified as correct for iOS deployment (hence, the

Kivy touch events not working on Raspberry PI with Adafruit PiTFT
Hi!

I have an Adafruit 2.8in LCD with a resistive touchscreen [1], connected to a Raspberry Pi and working with Kivy. I have had to use fbcp [2] to get this setup to work with Kivy, but that is fine. While I have seen issues with idle apps using 30-40% CPU (as per htop), the primary blocker in my setup is that the touchscreen errors out with Kivy.

I can create a Button in a Kivy App and press it, Kivy does see the touch, but errors out:

[INFO ] [HIDMotionEvent] using <stmpe-ts> Exception in thread Thread-1: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 552, in __bootstrap_inner self.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 505, in run self.__target(*self.__args, **self.__kwargs) File "/home/pi/kivy/kivy/input/providers/hidinput.py", line 580, in _thread_run process_as_mouse_or_keyboard(*infos) File "/home/pi/kivy/kivy/input/providers/hidinput.py", line 456, in process_as_mouse_or_keyboard l = keyboard_keys[ev_code][-1 if 'shift' in Window._modifiers else 0] KeyError: 330

Here are a few additional notes:

After this, I am unable to get another button press to register in the log, but the app is still running and updating the screen.

The above errors were seen with kKivy installed from git master from a few days ago, I will update to latest master and retry.

I can debug, build, etc, specific branches, patches, etc.. anything to help this move along.

Trouble getting Gstreamer 1.0 to work properly on OSX 10.9.4 with MacPorts
Hello!

I posted about this issue earlier, but the response was, well, non-existent. I'm guessing this is more of a support-thing rather than a bug report, but filing it here too, just in case!

A synopsis of my situation:

I installed pygobject3, gstreamer and gst-plugins-[base | good | bad | ugly] using MacPorts

I can import gi just fine from both a Python process, and a Kivy one

I can even get Gst.version() from within my Kivy app

My video provider keeps returning null

I found that if I uncommented line 210 in kivy/core/video/init.py (video_providers += [('gi', 'video_gi', 'VideoGi')]) I actually get gstplayer as my video provider; huzzah!

Then though, it starts complaining about a segfault in Resources/lib/gst-plugins/___so. Removing that file (as suggested by the error message) just shifts the error to the next one, so I just emptied the entire folder. \0/

Ok, so now the app starts, and we don't get any errors (just a few warnings RE SDL_xxx classes being implemented in both Kivy's and SDL's libSDL-1.2.0.dylib). However, my video files still don't load. I've tried binding my test callback to both loaded and on_load, but no dice. Does anyone have any ideas on how to proceed? Video support is rather crucial in this specific app, so it would be great to see this resolved. =)

Thanks, Patrick

Prevent `BoxShadow` shader from crashing on devices with Adreno GPU
As reported by @yunus-ceyhan in this issue . The shader used in the BoxShadow graphics instruction may crash on some Adreno GPUs.

The specific cause is still not very clear, however, there are two possibilities:

Issue in Adreno GPU driver

Issue in kivy's Shader implementation

The workaround is to check if the alpha channel of the frag_color variable is greater than zero. If so, a pure vector can be returned, otherwise, a vector created with texture2D needs to be returned, to avoid crashes.

As a reference, for future implementations using shaders:

Code that crashes on Adreno GPUs:

void main(void) { vec4 color = vec4(1.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0); gl_FragColor = color; }

Code that compiles successfully:

void main(void) { vec4 texture = texture2D(texture0, tex_coord0); gl_FragColor = texture; }

Workaround:

void main(void) { vec4 texture = texture2D(texture0, tex_coord0); vec4 color = vec4(1.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0); if (frag_color.a > 0.0) { gl_FragColor = color; } else { gl_FragColor = texture; } }

Black screen and restart required after importing kivy.uix.textinput

Software Versions

python : 3.10.2.final.0
python-bits : 64
OS : Darwin
OS-release : 21.6.0
machine : arm64
processor : arm
Kivy: v2.1.0
Kivy installation method: pip install kivy

Describe the bug After importing the TextInput class from kivy.uix.textinput - without building an app or anything -, I get a black screen, the screen resolution was changed and keyboard inputs are not possible anymore. I had to restart my Mac Book.

I tried it out on another MacBook which has an Intel chip and the code worked. So it is probably a problem with the M1 chip.

Expected behavior It shouldn't do anything except import TextInput.

To Reproduce

from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.textinput import TextInput

An import error in a KV file raises AttributeError in Kivy instead of ParserException

Software Versions

Python: 3.10.6
OS: Linux Mint 21
Kivy: 2.1.0
Kivy installation method: pip wheel

Describe the bug An import error in a KV file raises AttributeError, which produces a long Kivy traceback.

Expected behavior A ParserException would be more clear.

To Reproduce The point of this is to raise an exception, so the code intentionally doesn't run, but does reproduce the issue. It should reproduce the error in the latest master because the code there is the same as in my version: https://github.com/kivy/kivy/blob/5744bc564dd99c6326438e628acd5f3e3e146ff8/kivy/lang/parser.py#L559

After fixing (The IDE can detect the error, and the user can double-click the error to go to the line in the KV file)

If a KV file is not being used (If load_string), the exception will still be the more clear ParserException, but the last line containing the source filename will not appear. The user is already probably in the py file containing the issue anyway.

Issue when accessing hardware h264 decoder
Software Versions

Python: 3.10

OS: Android

Kivy: v2.1.0

Kivy installation method: Buildozer

Describe the bug

I am developing android app with kivy and ffpyplayer for watching video streams. But i'm using low performance hardware and getting lag on streams with 2500 bitrate and higher, so I decided to use hardware accelerated codecs like h264_v4l2m2m. I add 'vcodec': 'h264_v4l2m2m' parameter of MediaPlayer in kivy.core.video.video_ffpyplayer.py but get this issue:

12-28 00:44:29.802 2065 2138 I python : [ERROR ] [ffpyplayer ] [h264_v4l2m2m @ 0x7b181c6100] can't configure decoder 12-28 00:44:29.803 2065 2138 I python : [CRITICAL] [ffpyplayer ] Failed to open file 'http://213.145.131.243:80/cam1/stream.m3u8' or configure filtergraph 12-28 00:44:29.787 2138 2138 W Thread-6: type=1400 audit(0.0:25): avc: denied { read } for name="/" dev="tmpfs" ino=7196 scontext=u:r:untrusted_app:s0:c512,c768 tcontext=u:object_r:device:s0 tclass=dir permissive=0

I found some information about this issue and it seems that

W Thread-6: type=1400 audit(0.0:25): avc: denied { read } for name="/" dev="tmpfs" ino=7196 scontext=u:r:untrusted_app:s0:c512,c768 tcontext=u:object_r:device:s0 tclass=dir permissive=0

is a SELinux denial. So SELinux blocks ffmpeg when trying to access the hardware codec but I don't understand why this is happening.

I also post this issue here: https://github.com/matham/ffpyplayer/issues/137 because I don't know it is ffpyplayer or kivy problem.

Releases(2.1.0)

2.1.0(Mar 6, 2022)
The Kivy team is happy to announce the release of Kivy 2.1.0.

Kivy is a full-featured framework for creating novel and performant user interfaces, such as multi-touch applications, released under the MIT license. The framework works on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and Raspberry Pi.

Installation instructions and Kivy Docs are hosted on the Kivy Website

Currently supported Python versions are 3.7-3.10

macOS Kivy.app now supports both Intel and Apple Silicon hardware.

aarch64 for manylinux2014 pre-built wheels are now available on PyPi.

Single universal2 wheel for macos Intel and Apple Silicon is now available on PyPi.

Features marked as deprecated on 1.6.0 and prior versions will be removed in Kivy 2.2.0.

Highlights

[#7658]: Feature: Added EventManagerBase. We can now register managers that selectively process inputs e.g. touch and decide how to dispatch it to the widget tree. on_motion and motion_filter was added to Widget to handle generic motion inputs from the managers.

[#7270]: Graphics: We now check whether the user called GL instructions from an external thread and raise an error.

[#7293]: Properties: Added dynamic screen density/dpi support. KV code referencing density e.g. width: "5dp" will now update if the window dpi changes.

[#7371]: KV: Allow using f-strings in KV-lang.

[#7424]: Properties: Speed up bare widget creation (3X) and property dispatching/setting.

[#7587]: Fix PermissionError when reconnecting mtdev input devices.

[#7637]: Added Custom titlebar support.

[#7642]: TextInput loading time optimization for large texts.

[#7663]: Add python3.10 support.

[#7678]: Add support for Apple Silicon.

Deprecated

[#7356]: Widget: Widget.clear_widgets providing empty widget list does not remove any children, unlike None that clears all the children.

[#7437]: TextInput: Remove broken and confusing suggestion_text property

[#7744]: Change default input_type to null. Add some warning regarding TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS

[#7763]: Removed Python3.6 from the supported ones, it reached EOL

[#7820]: kivy_deps.gstreamer releases 0.3.0, 0.14, 0.15, and 0.16 were deleted from PyPi to conserve space. They were not used, but if you did depend on them you can download them from https://kivy.org/downloads/ci/win/deps/.

Kv-lang

[#7371]: KV: Allow using f-strings in KV-lang

[#7703]: refactor kivy.lang

Misc

2.0.0(Dec 10, 2020)
The Kivy team is happy to announce the release of Kivy 2.0.0.

Kivy is a full-featured framework for creating novel and performant user interfaces, such as multi-touch applications, released under the MIT license. The framework works on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and Raspberry Pi.

This is the first release to not support Python 2.7 - hence the increase in Kivy's major version to 2. Currently supported Python versions are 3.6 - 3.9.

Installation has been largely simplified and all platforms now support a simpler pip install (see below).

Installation instructions and Kivy documentation is available on the Kivy website:

https://kivy.org

or on GitHub.

Installation notes

Kivy can now be installed into your Virtual Environment on Windows, Linux, OSX, and RPi simply with:

pip install kivy[base] kivy-examples # or to get the media dependecies as well pip install kivy[base,media] kivy-examples # or to get most kivy optional dependencies pip install kivy[full] kivy-examples

* For the RPi, additional system dependencies should be pre-installed.

These selectors allow specifying dependency categories, instead of having to pin Kivy's kivy_deps dependencies to specific versions. These selectors will install the proper dependency version to match Kivy's version.

Additionally, by default, Kivy will install the base dependencies even if base is not specified. In order to facilitate easier install for GUI installation users e.g. in PyCharm. However, this may change as pip evolves and base should be manually specified. Use pip's --no-deps flag to disable it.

See the selector documentation for more details.

Installation from source has also been simplified, relying on pip's pyproject.toml. See the simplified instructions.

Highlights

[#6351]: Support for Python 2 has been dropped and Kivy source code is now incompatible with Python 2.

[#6368]: Support for async has been added to Kivy. Kivy can now run cooperatively, in the same process or thread as asynchronous code.

We currently support the stdlib asyncio framework and the excellent trio framework. See the kivy examples for how to use it.

Branching

The new stable branch is now derived from the 2.0.0 tag. The oldest stable branch has been renamed to stable-1.11.1. If you still want to compile on android with this branch, use "kivy==stable-1.11.1" as requirement. We do not support previous versions, so if things doesn't work anymore due to changes in python-for-android, please take time to update your application.

1.11.0(Jun 1, 2019)
We are pleased to announce Kivy 1.11.0.

Kivy is a full featured framework for creating novel and performant user interfaces, such as multitouch applications, released under the MIT license. The framework works on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and Raspberry Pi.

This is the last release to support Python 2.7. The next release will only support Python 3.5+.

This is also the first release with Kivy wheels for Linux (3.5+ only, Windows and macOS already have wheels).

Windows dependencies are now under the kivy_deps.xxx namespace external to Kivy, rather than kivy.deps.xxx under Kivy. Whether you're upgrading Kivy, please pin the dependency versions when installing because Kivy binary dependencies are not generally backward compatible [#6312].

The kivy.garden.flower namespace is similarly being transitioned to the kivy_garden.flower namespace.

See below for more details.

Downloads and installation instructions are available on the Kivy website:

https://kivy.org

Installation notes

Windows

[#6324]: We are transitioning the kivy Windows dependencies from the kivy.deps.xxx namespace stored under kivy/deps/xxx to the kivy_deps.xxx namespace stored under kivy_deps/xxx. Pip is sometimes not able to distinguish between these two formats, so follow the instructions below.

If you're not upgrading Kivy, please make sure to pin your kivy.deps.xxx==x.y.z dependencies to the versions that was on pypi when your Kivy was released so that you don't get newer incompatible dependencies.

If you're upgrading Kivy, manually uninstall all the kivy.deps.xxx dependencies because pip will not uninstall them when you're upgrading. Then re-install the kivy_deps.xxx dependencies as instructed on the Kivy website.

If you're installing the first time, simply follow the instructions on Kivy's website.

Linux and macOS

The new Linux wheels (#6248) can be installed with just pip install kivy, however, just like on macOS it comes without the Gstreamer dependencies so it has no video and minor audio support. For video/audio support, please install ffpyplayer and set KIVY_VIDEO=ffpyplayer in the environment, or install kivy using an alternative method that provides these dependencies.

Highlights

Support

[#5947]: We have moved from IRC to Discord. However, there's matrix integration if you are unable to use Discord. See https://kivy.org/doc/master/contact.html#discord.

Configuration

[#6192]: Support for environmental variables that control the config in the form of KCFG_SECTION_KEY has been added. E.g. setting KCFG_KIVY_LOG_LEVEL=warning in the environment is the same as calling Config.set("kivy", "log_level", "warning") or setting the log_level in the kivy section of the config to warning. Note that underscores are not allowed in the section names.

Any key set this will way will take precedence on the loaded config.ini file. Support for this can be disabled by setting the enviornmental variable KIVY_NO_ENV_CONFIG=1 and the environment will not be read for configuration options.

KV lang

[#6257]: A new KV-Python integration event that fires when all the KV rules of the widget has been applied, on_kv_post, has been added to the Widget class. This event fires for a widget when all the KV rules it participates in has been applied and ids has been initialized. Binding to this event will let you execute code for your widget without having to schedule the code for the next clock cycle.

Similarly, a new apply_class_lang_rules method was added to Widget that is called in order to apply the KV rules of that widget class. Inheriting and overwriting that method will give you the oppertunity to execute code before any KV rules are applied.

Garden

We are transitioning the Kivy garden flowers from the kivy.garden.flower namespace stored under kivy/garden/flower or ~/.kivy/garden to the normal python package format kivy_garden.flower namespace stored under kivy_garden/flower. With the new configuration, garden flowers will be pip installable, support cython flowers, and not require the custom garden tool.

We're hoping to transition all flowers to the new format, however, for now many flowers still require installation by the garden tool.

For users, see https://kivy-garden.github.io/index.html#generalusageguidelines. For developers, see https://kivy-garden.github.io/index.html#developmentguidelines for how to start a new flower, and https://kivy-garden.github.io/index.html#guideformigratingflowersfromlegacystructure for how to migrate existing flowers to the new format.

Other

[#6186]: Live resizing has been added for desktop platforms that use the SDL2 window backend.

Deprecated

[#6313]: Pygame has been deprecated. We urge users who have been using pygame to try SDL2 and our other providers. If there are any reasons why Pygame is used instead of SDL2 please let us know so we can fix them.

Deprecation warnings have also been added to everything that has been deprecated in the past.

Breaking changes

[#6095]: Changed the Android version to use App.user_data_dir for the configuration and added a missing dot to the config file name.

[#5340]: Removed DropDown.dismiss in on_touch_down so it is only dismissed in on_touch_up.

[#5990, #6169]: We now use pytest to run our tests rather than nose.

[#5968]: Listview and all its associated modules has finally be removed in favor of RecycleView.

Branching

The new stable branch is now derived from the 1.11.0 tag. The oldest stable branch has been renamed to stable-1.10.1. If you still want to compile on android with this branch, use "kivy==stable-1.10.1" as requirement. We do not support previous versions, so if things doesn't work anymore due to changes in python-for-android, please take time to update your application.

1.10.1(Jul 9, 2018)
This was supposedly a bugfix releases, but a few new features have managed to get in, aside that, a lot of fixes are included.

Highlighted changes:

It's now possible to query Window information with the SDL provider.

SVG support improvements.

Export_to_png now preserves widget's alpha.

It's now possible to define a custom comparison for properties, to manage dispatching better.

Layouts' add_widget method now accept the canvas argument that Widget's does.

Fix for infamous SDL window issue on Linux.

disabled property of widget now restores the previous value of disabled of children on unset.

The tuio implementation now uses the new oscpy library instead of the bundled oscAPI module, this solves a lot of issues with python3 and massively increase performances. The old OSC package is still shipped, but will be removed in future releases.

On Linux, probesysfs input detection doesn't depend on getconf anymore, which makes it more portable.

This is the last release to officially support python 3.3 and 3.4.

For technical reasons, there is no 3.7 wheels for Windows yet, they will come soon after our continuous integration infrastructure allows it.

The Kivy team plans to drop support for python 2.7 before the end of 2018, but we hope to make multiple releases before that, as a lot of work to streamline our release process was done during this release.
