Installation on Windows
|
|
|
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The windows stable version is what we call a portable package. You don't have
|
|
|
|
|
to install anything in "system" wide. Just unzip & run:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Download the latest version from http://kivy.org/#downloads
|
|
|
|
|
2. Unzip the package
|
|
|
|
|
3. Then, in the unzipped package, you have a script called `kivy.bat`,
|
|
|
|
|
use it for launching any kivy application
|
|

----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to double-click and make it just "work", you need to use the
|
|
|
|
|
`kivy.bat` included in the package for starting Kivy application. To make
|
|
|
|
|
it work, do
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Right click on the python file of the application
|
|
|
|
|
2. Open With
|
|
|
|

3. Select the default software
|
|
|
|
|
4. Browse your files to select the `kivy.bat`
|
|
|
|
|
5. Select "Always open the file with..." if you want
|
|
|
|
|
6. Ok !
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Next time, your python file will be executed with the Kivy's python !
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Start from commandline
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want just to use or develop with latest stable kivy, we offer you an
|
|
|
|
|
alternative way with a console. You need a minimalist GNU system installed on
|
|
|
|
|
your system. Use `msysGit <http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/>`_.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When you install the msysGit, you must select theses options:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Don't replace windows shell
|
|
|
|
|
* Checkout at-is, commit at-is (no clrf replacement !)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You'll have an icon "Git bash" on your desktop, this is the console we want:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Start "Git bash"
|
|
|
|
|
2. cd "directory of portable kivy"
|
|
|
|
|
3. source kivyenv.sh "full directory of portable kivy" (don't use .)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You are now ready to launch python/kivy in commande line ! Just do::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
python <filename.py>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
