SoloCore

SoloCore

"The Roots of the Grove" — the shared foundation under every SoloGrove program. Not an app you launch, but the reason they all feel the same: real desktop widgets through Qt and PySide (no webviews), one experience on Linux, BSD, macOS, and Windows, multilingual by design with full right-to-left support. Seeded by extracting battle-tested helpers out of SoloSheet.

You rarely install this directly — it arrives as a dependency of the apps.

Module What it provides
bootstrap setup_appearance(app) — forces the Fusion style and registers BUNDLED_FONT_FAMILIES, so a document renders identically on macOS/Windows/Linux/BSD: IBM Plex Sans/Serif/Mono for body and UI, IBM Plex Sans Arabic and IBM Plex Sans Hebrew for the RTL scripts in the same voice as the rest, and the scholarly faces Gentium, Ezra SIL and Cardo. All OFL. APP_FONT_FAMILY is IBM Plex Sans; LEGACY_FONT_MAP remaps families we do not bundle — including the Liberation set this used to ship — so older files degrade gracefully rather than falling back per-OS. Also apply_theme(app, mode) for light/dark/system. Fonts ship inside the package.
icons svg_to_icon() — render inline-SVG markup strings as QIcons, with fill, stroke and mask tinting. No icon files to ship.
paths asset_dir() / require_asset_dir() — resolve bundled assets identically from a source checkout, an editable install, a wheel, and a PyInstaller freeze. The lookups degrade silently by design, which is why require_asset_dir exists.
safety @safe_slot — error-containment decorator for Qt slots: logs the exception (logger "SoloCore") and surfaces it in the window's status bar instead of crashing.
fileformat parse_version() + atomic_write_text() — the shared conventions behind SoloGrove's plain, AI-readable JSON formats: version compatibility checks and corruption-proof atomic saves.
from solocore import setup_appearance, svg_to_icon, safe_slot, atomic_write_text

Licensed LGPLv3 (the apps are GPLv3) so the library can be reused beyond the family.
