Ridiculously Uncomplicated macOS Python Statusbar apps
rumps
R\ idiculously U\ ncomplicated m\ acOS P\ ython S\ tatusbar apps.
.. image:: https://raw.github.com/jaredks/rumps/master/examples/rumps_example.png
.. code-block:: python
import rumps
class AwesomeStatusBarApp(rumps.App):
@rumps.clicked("Preferences")
def prefs(self, _):
rumps.alert("jk! no preferences available!")
@rumps.clicked("Silly button")
def onoff(self, sender):
sender.state = not sender.state
@rumps.clicked("Say hi")
def sayhi(self, _):
rumps.notification("Awesome title", "amazing subtitle", "hi!!1")
if __name__ == "__main__":
AwesomeStatusBarApp("Awesome App").run()
How fun!?
rumps can greatly shorten the code required to generate a working app. No PyObjC underscore syntax required!
Use case
rumps is for any console-based program that would benefit from a simple configuration toolbar or launch menu.
Good for:
- Notification-center-based app
- Controlling daemons / launching separate programs
- Updating simple info from web APIs on a timer
Not good for:
- Any app that is first and foremost a GUI application
Required
- PyObjC
- Python 2.6+
Mac OS X 10.6 was shipped with Python 2.6 as the default version and PyObjC has been included in the default Python
since Mac OS X 10.5. If you're using Mac OS X 10.6+ and the default Python that came with it, then rumps should be
good to go!
Recommended
- py2app
For creating standalone apps, just make sure to include rumps in the packages list. Most simple statusbar-based
apps are just "background" apps (no icon in the dock; inability to tab to the application) so it is likely that you
would want to set 'LSUIElement' to True. A basic setup.py would look like,
.. code-block:: python
from setuptools import setup
APP = ['example_class.py']
DATA_FILES = []
OPTIONS = {
'argv_emulation': True,
'plist': {
'LSUIElement': True,
},
'packages': ['rumps'],
}
setup(
app=APP,
data_files=DATA_FILES,
options={'py2app': OPTIONS},
setup_requires=['py2app'],
)
With this you can then create a standalone,
.. code-block:: bash
python setup.py py2app
Installation
Using pip,
.. code-block:: bash
pip install rumps
Or from source,
.. code-block:: bash
python setup.py install
Both of which will require sudo if installing in a system-wide location.
Virtual Environments
There are issues with using virtualenv because of the way the Python
executable is copied. Although rumps attempts to apply a fix (hack) during
the install process, it is not suggested to use virtualenv.
To ensure proper functionality, either use venv (packaged with Python 3) or
create a standalone app using py2app.
.. code-block:: bash
python3 -m venv env
