BB-Py Project

You can build Python apps for the BB10 platform!

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

@fitrianto_halim Safe to say this will never happen (or, at least, never be practical). Unsuitable OS for a port.

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

@_dallagi @bzubert What are you looking for? Projects like this thrive on community contributions. Have you got code to share?

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

@bzubert In fact @peter9477 is integrating contributions from @SurgeCoApps this very moment! @xitijpatel also still active. Thanks all!

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

Hmm, lots of activity today. @peter9477 just committed a timer/timeout facility for Python threads using BPS. http://t.co/gZy7C30ygr

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

In fact, he just pushed the first commit with IDS support! http://t.co/DZxeI2xTDy @xitijpatel

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

On a promising note, @xitijpatel is making great progress with BB10 Identity Service support (BBID + cloud storage).

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

Tried making a minimal headless service with the Qnx/Python entry point. Uses all but 14K of the 3MB RAM limit. This won't work... :'(

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

A strange twist: I just ported #TartStart to #Qt5.1 on Windows. This could get interesting.

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

So #Python is still one of the most liked languages no matter how you slice the stats: http://t.co/ODcc32SVpK

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

And this is an app's slog2 output getting mirrored to my web browser with WebSockets via #BlackBird for #BBTart http://t.co/dGHFhF4zBa

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

I just made @bottlepy do WebSockets, by subclassing a bit of WSGI and going async. This is going to be good... #BlackBird

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

Hmm.. a web inspector for BlackBerry Tart you say? Based on @bottlepy. Just started on it. :-)

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

And @JeroBarraco published the first real Python app (interpreter prompt and all) for #BB10 as http://t.co/c4DDhzZTnK (a #PySide app)

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

Congrats to Kristopher Ruzic for getting Reader YC into #BBWorld! Built with #BlackBerryTart (Python and QML). https://t.co/cGROeWJwpm

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

@rygwdn Interesting. Tart's design is based on identical considerations. It could easily grow in that direction. Need contributors!

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

@rygwdn I deliberately kept Python in a secondary thread, out of an abundance of caution, but need to test that direct call approach.

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

@rygwdn Peeked at it yesterday but not in detail. What advantages does it have? We could steal some ideas. #ContributionsWelcome, of course.

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

Freshly added to Tart: Push support (!!) and a Send Email sample showing how to invoke Composer. http://t.co/kZVINNmLhE

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

@ShaneGuignard Alternatively, you make a custom TartStart and write directly in C++, exposing things to QML if required. For now.

[BB-Py Project @BBPyProject]

@ShaneGuignard Basically you need to write some C to call the C++, and expose results via the Python/C API http://t.co/RNT0E7o543
