PyJNIus

A Python module to access Java classes as Python classes using JNI.

PyJNIus is a "Work In Progress".

Quick overview

>>> from jnius import autoclass
>>> autoclass('java.lang.System').out.println('Hello world')
Hello world

>>> Stack = autoclass('java.util.Stack')
>>> stack = Stack()
>>> stack.push('hello')
>>> stack.push('world')
>>> print stack.pop()
world
>>> print stack.pop()
hello

Usage on desktop

You need a java JDK installed (OpenJDK will do), Cython and make to build it.

make

That's it! You can run the tests using

make tests

to ensure everything is running correctly.

Usage with python-for-android

from time import sleep
from jnius import autoclass

Hardware = autoclass('org.renpy.android.Hardware')
print 'DPI is', Hardware.getDPI()

Hardware.accelerometerEnable(True)
for x in xrange(20):
    print Hardware.accelerometerReading()
    sleep(.1)

It will output something like:

Advanced example

When you use autoclass, it will discover all the methods and fields of the object and resolve them. For now, it is better to declare and use only what you need. The previous example can be done manually as follows:

from time import sleep
from java import MetaJavaClass, JavaClass, JavaMethod, JavaStaticMethod

class Hardware(JavaClass):
    __metaclass__ = MetaJavaClass
    __javaclass__ = 'org/renpy/android/Hardware'
    vibrate = JavaStaticMethod('(D)V')
    accelerometerEnable = JavaStaticMethod('(Z)V')
    accelerometerReading = JavaStaticMethod('()[F')
    getDPI = JavaStaticMethod('()I')
    
# use that new class!
print 'DPI is', Hardware.getDPI()

Hardware.accelerometerEnable()
for x in xrange(20):
    print Hardware.accelerometerReading()
    sleep(.1)
