Hello!
I want to make a dialog that ask for a received sms code.
The oficial form is by a parameter of the UITextField but in Pythonista there is not implemented yet. How can I make it by ObjC? I can not import UIKit by ObjCClass because Pythonista drops an error.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39631168/automatic-otp-verification-in-ios
Thanks you in advance.
alberto
@AlbertoAEC, you can use the objc_instance property to get the ObjC instance of the textfield. Although, I cannot find a textContentType property there nor in a subview, and if I did, I would not know what value to set in Python, as the (numeric?) values of the ObjC contants are not documented.
@AlbertoAEC I don't understand why but
tf = ui.TextField()
tfo = ObjCInstance(tf)
tfo.textField().textContentType = 0
Gives an error
TypeError: expected 4 arguments, got 1
I'm sorry but I can't help anymore
@mikael @cvp Thank you guys for the quick responses.
As far as I understand, the value of the textContentType is a Structure of the type UITextContentType. I think is a internal constant but I don’t know how to get it from pythonista.
Here is the official documentation:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uitextcontenttype/2980930-onetimecode
@AlbertoAEC I've read it but I don't understand why it says it waits for4 arguments. The structure doesn't seem to have 4 fields...
print(tfo.textField().setTextContentType_.encoding)
UITextContentType is an alias for nsString.
Try
UIContentTypeOneTimeCode=c_void_p.in_dll(c, 'UIContentTypeOneTimeCode')
if UIContentTypeOneTimeCode:
UIContentTypeOneTimeCode = ObjCInstance(UIContentTypeOneTimeCode)
tf=ui.TextField()
tfo=tf.objc_instance.textField()
tfo.setTextContentType_(UIContentTypeOneTimeCode)
@JonB
if that gives a symbol not found, you might try
UIContentTypeOneTimeCode=ns('UIContentTypeOneTimeCode')
@JonB yes symbol not found, then TypeError: expected 4 arguments, got 1 in
tfo.setTextContentType_(UIContentTypeOneTimeCode)
As I got early
@cvp can you print that line I had before to print the encoding?
or if encoding is not found, try
print(tfo.setTextContentType_.method_cache['0/'][0].encoding)
@JonB b'v0@0:0@"NSString"0'
@JonB print(tfo.setTextContentType_.method_cache['0/'][0].encoding)
AttributeError: 'ObjCInstanceMethod' object has no attribute 'method_cache'
@JonB tfo.setTextContentType_(UIContentTypeOneTimeCode)
File "/var/containers/Bundle/Application/FED7F8B2-4F86-4833-BCFB-C2F8803CD0F1/Pythonista3.app/Frameworks/Py3Kit.framework/pylib/site-packages/objc_util.py", line 874, in call
raise TypeError('expected %i arguments, got %i' % (len(argtypes) - 2, len(args)))
TypeError: expected 4 arguments, got 1
you might also try
tfo.setTextContentType_(UITextContentTypeOneTime, argtypes=[c_void_p], restype=None)
which should fix a botched encoding parse.
@JonB replaced by
tfo.setTextContentType_(UIContentTypeOneTimeCode, argtypes=[c_void_p], restype=None)
Then crash
```

End of exception details.```
you might also need a load_framework('UIKit') before defining the constant via in_dll
@JonB
load_framework('UIKit')
UIContentTypeOneTimeCode=c_void_p.in_dll(c, 'UIContentTypeOneTimeCode')
Gives
UIContentTypeOneTimeCode=c_void_p.in_dll(c, 'UIContentTypeOneTimeCode')
ValueError: dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT, UIContentTypeOneTimeCode): symbol not found
Thus I use
UIContentTypeOneTimeCode=ns('UIContentTypeOneTimeCode')
As you adviced
@JonB could you remember me the meaning of
b'v0@0:0@"NSString"0'
Yeah, objc_util gets confused with that.
Restart pyrhonista and try again - the argtypes/restype keywords only work the first time the uiinstancemethod is created I think.
Can you try
c_void_p.in_dll(c,'UITextContentTypeURL')
An see if it complains about symbol not found?
@JonB at each crash, I remove Pythonista from tasks list and restart...
Whoops, I think I mistyped before the symbol for one time code should be
UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode
In the in_dll. I had missed the Text bit
@JonB with UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode, no more symbol not found but same crash...
Ok, now when you call setTextContentType_(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode, restype=c_void_p, argtypes=[c_void_p])
I had swapped restype and argtypes, it's possible both were needed
@JonB just to be sure, my "last" code is
import ui
from objc_util import *
load_framework('UIKit')
UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode=c_void_p.in_dll(c, 'UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode')
#UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode=ns('UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode')
if UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode:
UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode = ObjCInstance(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode)
tf = ui.TextField()
tfo=tf.objc_instance.textField()
print(tfo.setTextContentType_.encoding)
tfo.setTextContentType_(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode, argtypes=[c_void_p], restype=None)
tf.present('sheet')
@JonB same crash ( my last code had been written just before your post about swapping, but I also tested it)
#tfo.setTextContentType_(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode, argtypes=[c_void_p], restype=None)
tfo.setTextContentType_(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode, restype=c_void_p, argtypes=[c_void_p])
Sorry, right. Swap restype and argtypes order in the last call, and use restype=c_void_p.
Alternatively we could try
my_method = ObjCInstanceMethod(tfo, 'setTextContentType_')
my_method.encoding='v@:@'
my_method(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode)
@JonB same crash with
#tfo.setTextContentType_(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode, argtypes=[c_void_p], restype=None)
#tfo.setTextContentType_(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode, restype=c_void_p, argtypes=[c_void_p])
my_method = ObjCInstanceMethod(tfo, 'setTextContentType_')
my_method.encoding='v@:@'
my_method(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode)
Ate you sure the traceback is the exactly the same? What is the invalid selector now?
Try using : instead of _ in the selector name... I forget how objcinstancemsthod works
@JonB with
#tfo.setTextContentType_(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode, argtypes=[c_void_p], restype=None)
#tfo.setTextContentType_(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode, restype=c_void_p, argtypes=[c_void_p])
#my_method = ObjCInstanceMethod(tfo, 'setTextContentType_')
my_method = ObjCInstanceMethod(tfo, 'setTextContentType:')
my_method.encoding='v@:@'
my_method(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode)

ok, try
my_method = ObjCInstanceMethod(tfo, 'setTextContentType_')
my_method.sel_name='setTextContentType:'
my_method.encoding=b'v@:@'
my_method(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode)
i forgot encoding should be bytes, not str. and lets try setting the selName manually.
that should do it.....?
@JonB Sorry for the delay, dinner time 😢
No crash but how to check if script ok: keyboard of tf seems usual...
Now THAT I don't know...
what does tfo.textContentType() return?
I think you'd have to text yourself from another phone with a text that has a code. Then you might need to have the auto correct/suggestion thing above the keyboard enabled, and it should show the code as a suggestion.
@JonB return is None.
Hoping all this spent time will help @AlbertoAEC
From stack overflow
First of all, the SMS need to have the keyword "code" or "passcode" into their message, and don't use spaces after the code. if you received the SMS and you have the button "Copy Code" then it will works
@cvp are you on ios12?
Seems like this didn't actually work...
@JonB iOS 12.1, but don't forget I am not the requester. I only tried to help, without success if without you 😢
@cvp @JonB THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!
It works perfectly.
You can try the code using other content type like phone number.
UITextContentTypeTelephoneNumber
import ui
from objc_util import *
load_framework('UIKit')
UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode=c_void_p.in_dll(c, 'UITextContentTypeTelephoneNumber')
if UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode:
UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode = ObjCInstance(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode)
tf = ui.TextField()
tf.keyboard_type = ui.KEYBOARD_NUMBER_PAD
tfo=tf.objc_instance.textField()
print(tfo.setTextContentType_.encoding)
my_method = ObjCInstanceMethod(tfo, 'setTextContentType_')
my_method.sel_name='setTextContentType:'
my_method.encoding=b'v@:@'
my_method(UITextContentTypeOneTimeCode)
tf.present('sheet')
I couldn’t answer to you before because I was working.
Best regards,
Alberto
@AlbertoAEC 👍 and one proof more, if needed, that @JonB is our guru
@AlbertoAEC and you can comment the load_framework, I think
#load_framework('UIKit')
@cvp yes, load_framework is no needed.
Thanks to both of you for your time
