pythonhere 0.2.0

Here is the Kivy based app to run code from the Jupyter magic %there

PythonHere lets you run Python code from a local Jupyter notebook inside a remote Kivy app.

PythonHere has two parts:

• Here is the remote/server side. It runs a Python environment with a Kivy GUI, for example on Android, Raspberry Pi, or another machine.

• %there is the local/client side. It is a Jupyter magic command for running code interactively in the remote PythonHere environment.

This makes PythonHere useful as a live Python/Kivy playground, and as a way to inspect or control a Python app running remotely.

Install the Android app

Ready-to-use PythonHere APKs are available from the GitHub Releases page.

For APK provenance and signing checks, see Android APK verification. For a list of Python packages included in the Android build, see buildozer.spec.

Start a local Jupyter environment with Docker

The Docker image is based on Jupyter Docker Stacks and includes PythonHere with usage examples.

Example command to start the Docker container:

docker run \
       --rm \
       -p 8888:8888 \
       --user root \
       -e CHOWN_EXTRA=/home/jovyan/work \
       -e CHOWN_EXTRA_OPTS='-R' \
       -v "$(pwd)/work":/home/jovyan/work \
       herethere/pythonhere:latest

The command exposes the Jupyter server on host port 8888. Jupyter logs are printed in the terminal and include a URL such as http://127.0.0.1:8888/?token=.... Open this URL in a browser to use the local Jupyter environment.

Files in /home/jovyan/work inside the container are stored in the local work directory.

Run a local Jupyter environment without Docker

Commands to run locally:

pip install pythonhere jupyter
jupyter notebook

Build Android app

To build with Buildozer, run in the source directory:

buildozer android debug
