Kivy for iOS

This toolchain is designed to compile the necessary libraries for iOS to run your application and manage the creation of the Xcode project.

Currently, we do not provide any binary distributions of this toolchain, but we aim to. Until then, you do need to compile it at least once before creating your Xcode project.

The toolchain supports:

iPhone Simulator (x86 and x86_64)iPhone / iOS (armv7 and arm64)

These recipes are not ported to the new toolchain yet:

lxml

Requirements

Currently, the toolchain requires a few tools for compilation. You will need:

Xcode 6 or above, with an iOS SDK and command line tools installed: xcode-select --install Using brew, you can install the following dependencies: brew install autoconf automake libtool pkg-configbrew link libtool Install Cython (0.23): # pip method if available (sudo might be needed.)pip install cython==0.23

Using the toolchain

Any python extensions or C/C++ library must be compiled: you need to have what we call a recipe to compile it. For example, Python, libffi, SDL2, SDL_image, freetype... all the dependencies, compilation and packaging instructions are contained in a recipe.

You can list the available recipes and their versions with:

$ ./toolchain.py recipesfreetype 2.5.5hostpython 2.7.1ios masterkivy ios-poly-archlibffi 3.2.1openssl 1.0.2epyobjus masterpython 2.7.1sdl2 iOS-improvementssdl2_image 2.0.0sdl2_mixer 2.0.0sdl2_ttf 2.0.12

Then, start the compilation with:

$ ./toolchain.py build kivy

You can build recipes at the same time by adding them as parameters:

$ ./toolchain.py build openssl kivy

Recipe builds can be removed via the clean command e.g.:

$ ./toolchain.py clean openssl

The Kivy recipe depends on several others, like the sdl* and python recipes. These may in turn depend on others e.g. sdl2_ttf depends on freetype, etc. You can think of it as follows: the kivy recipe will compile everything necessary for a minimal working version of Kivy.

Don't grab a coffee, just do diner. Compiling all the libraries for the first time, 4x over (remember, 4 archs, 2 per platforms by default) will take time.

For a complete list of available commands, type:

$ ./toolchain.py

Create the Xcode project

The toolchain.py can create the initial Xcode project for you:

$ ./toolchain.py create
