pyxpo-device

Facts about the device a pyxpo app runs on: brand, model, OS, memory and device type. The API follows expo-device.

pip install pyxpo-device

[tool.pyxpo]
modules = ["device"]

import pyxpo_device as Device

print(Device.brand, Device.model_name, Device.os_name, Device.os_version)
if Device.device_type == Device.DeviceType.TABLET:
    ...
uptime_ms = await Device.get_uptime_async()

Every name also has its expo-device spelling (Device.modelName, Device.getUptimeAsync).

Constants

Read once at app start, no bridge round trip. None where a platform has no value.

On the desktop the values come from Python's platform module and device_type is DESKTOP.

Functions

• get_device_type_async() -> DeviceType
• get_uptime_async() -> milliseconds since boot, not counting deep sleep
• get_max_memory_async() -> Android: the runtime's memory limit in bytes; elsewhere MAX_SAFE_INTEGER
• is_rooted_experimental_async() -> best-effort jailbreak or root check. Easy to fool; never use it for security.
• is_side_loading_enabled_async() -> Android: whether the app may install apps (needs REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES on Android 8+)
• get_platform_features_async() -> Android system feature names; [] elsewhere
• has_platform_feature_async(feature) -> Android: for example "android.hardware.camera"; False elsewhere

Permissions

None.
