Plyer

Plyer is a platform-independent api to use features commonly found on various platforms, notably mobile ones, in Python.

How plyer works?

Plyer tries not to reinvent the wheel, and will call for external libraries to implement the api in the easiest way, depending on the current platform.

• On Android(python-for-android), pyjnius is used
• On iOS(kivy-ios), pyobjus is used
• On windows/mac/linux, commonly found libraries and programs will be used

Supported APIs

Installation

To use on desktop: pip install plyer To use in python-for-android/kivy-ios: add plyer to your requirements if needed.
