Filers2 App

The main module that provides the app that runs the GUI.

class filers2.main.Filers2App(open_player_thread=True, **kwargs)

The app which runs the GUI.

build()

Similar to App’s build, but it takes the root widget if provided and if inspect is True, it activates kivy’s inspector.

check_close(): Returns whether the app can close now. Otherwise, a message telling the user it cannot close now with message _close_message will be shown.

clean_up()

Called by run_app() or run_app_async() after the app closes to clean up any remaining resources.

By default, if inspect is enabled, it cleans up after it.

on_start(): Event handler for the on_start event which is fired after initialization (after build() has been called) but before the application has started running.

player_num_cols

The number of columns used by the grid displaying all the players.

If empty, player_num_rows must be set to a number, and then the columns will be auto-computed from the number of players added.

player_num_rows

The number of rows used by the grid displaying all the players.

If empty, player_num_cols must be set to a number, and then the rows will be auto-computed from the number of players added.

yesno_prompt: Stores a instance of YesNoPrompt that is automatically created by this app class. That class is described in base_kivy_app/graphics.kv.

filers2.main.run_app(): The function that starts the GUI and the entry point for the main script.
