rainmeter-python

Plugin for Rainmeter enabling Python 3 scripting

Installation

Binaries: x86-32 and x86-64

Simply copy the appropriate file to the 'Plugins' folder of your Rainmeter installation.

For this plugin to function, you need to install the Python 3.3 distribution matching your Rainmeter's architecture. The corresponding 'python33.dll' needs to be in your DLL search path; all standard installers of Python 3.3 automatically put the DLL into your System32 directory, so this should normally be the case.

  def Reload(self, rm, maxValue):
    rm.RmLog(rm.LOG_NOTICE, "Reload called")

  def Update(self):
    return 1.0

  def GetString(self):
    return 'Test'

  def ExecuteBang(self, args):

        self.username = rm.RmReadString('Username', 'user', False)
        self.password = rm.RmReadString('Password', 'pass', False)

    def Update(self):
        con = imaplib.IMAP4(self.host)
        con.starttls()
        con.login(self.username, self.password)
        con.select('INBOX', True)
        _, msgnums = con.search(None, '(UNSEEN)')
        con.close()
        con.logout()
        return float(len(msgnums[0].split()))
