zenity-py 1.0.0

A Python library for the CLI tool zenity.

zenity-py - Zenity for Python

Exactly what it says it is.

How to install

Just type python3 -m pip install zenity-py and it should install just fine.

How to use

In a python file, type

from zenity import Zenity

# Zenity syntax - title, body, type, options[]
# the ! in !timeout means it is an option, not a value
z = Zenity("Title", "Body", "info", ["!timeout", 5])

This should create a new Zenity instance. Of course, this is an example, so you can change anything. After that, add

z.Open()

This should start up Zenity with the parameters you specified. If a zenity window doesn't appear, something went wrong. You can always print() the z variable, as the Zenity class returns both the status code and output.

If you want to know what arguments you can use, go over to the Zenity Manual. Do not add an option like !calendar or !password onto the options. Just change the type to "calendar" or "password".
