If you have been following the Pythonista Slack Chat, you might have seen I have been working on a bible app using SQlite3 in Pythonista. Well, it is complete enough to showcase here in the forums.

View it on Github

Modules it uses

This single app demonstrates just about every feature of Pythonista's ui module. It demonstrates how to use Sqlite databases with the ui module to create a full app. The current list of modules it actively uses are ui,sqlite3,datetime,sound,console,clipboard,dialogs

What I still need to do
I still want to tweak some things and clean up the code a bit. I still want to add translation functionality and cross-reference.

Why I created it
I created this app for my personal use and education and for the use and education of others. I needed to be able to move through the scriptures quicker than other apps on the Apple app store allowed me to move. I also wanted to be able to take notes faster based on the scriptures.

@TutorialDoctor , thanks for sharing. Is there something special about your repo? I tried to cloe the repository with workingcopy, but it says a repository can't be found. I use this way now to get code into Pythonista, clone to workingcopy then use @ccc apex script to copy it to Pythonista.
It's just normally, I don't have a problem to do this. Maybe you have made it not clonable via some setting. I have no idea

I should probably separate the code out into its own repo. The link I gave was a link to a project within the Pythonista Projects repo. That may be the issue? Otherwise, several people have forked the repo already and I don't think there is anything else special about it.

Once i have it complete to the level I would like it, I will separate it out. I also use the apex code to get the databases file into Pythonista.

I am thinking about storing the entire app in a .json file and making a simple script to run it from there. Good way to distribute it.

Great!
I'd also like something similar with Japanese Living Bible....need to get it somehow first. I think I may write to the publishing company.

A completely redesigned version of this app can be found here

This already exists in several places in the App Store. For a simpler version, try JW Library.

@TutorialDoctor Hi, I am new to the community. Is it possible to buy this app off you for me to market it?

Thanks in advance for your time, cheers!

@ChrisSanderson Maybe write up your request as an issue on https://github.com/TutorialDoctor/Pythonista-Projects/issues/new
