Controling the environment
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Many environment variables are available to control the initialization and
|
|
behavior of Kivy.
|
|
|
|
For example, for restricting text rendering to cairo implementation::
|
|
|
|
$ KIVY_TEXT=cairo python main.py
|
|
|
|
Environment variable can be set before importing kivy::
|
|
|
|
import os
|
|
os.environ['KIVY_TEXT'] = 'cairo'
|
|
import kivy
|
|
|
|

|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
KIVY_USE_DEFAULTCONFIG
|
|
If this name is found in environ, Kivy will not read the user config file.
|
|
|
|
Path control
|
|

|
|

|

|
|
kivy datas.
