Hey everyone,

I‘m new here and I just started exploring Pythonista yesterday. I looked for some more examples to play around and I found tons of examples here https://github.com/tdamdouni/Pythonista - thanks Taha Dhiaeddine Amdouni for sharing. I downloaded all the stuff and now I wonder how to get the folders into pythonista 3. I figured out how to import files, but I‘m not able to get a folder import to work.

Does anyone have an idea or a hint for me?

Thanks alot
Rownn

I work on iPad.

@rownn, would you be ok placing then in Pythonista iCloud folder? E.g. using the Files app.

Then you can open and run things from Pythonista.

Hi mikael,

thx for your reply. You mean coping the folders into a pythonista folder directly? That would be great, but I cannot find any pythonista folder, neither on iCloud Drive nor On My iPad. I guess there are alot of stuff hidden somehow - honestly, I‘m not really familiar with iDevices.

@rownn, open Pythonista hamburger menu. At the top there are iPad/iPhone and then iCloud. Go to iCloud. If there is nothing there, create a folder (e.g. Tdamdouni). Then go to Files app and iCloud. You should see a Pythonista 3 directory in the root.

Really? It is that easy? Many thx!!!

Or run script from share default view

from PIL import Image
import appex
import ui
def main():
    if not appex.is_running_extension():
        print('This script is intended to be/ run from the sharing extension.')
        return
    path=appex.get_file_path()
    if len(path)>5:
        import shutil
        shutil.move(path,'/private/var/mobile/Containers/Shared/AppGroup/29427C70-DDD5-4356-A6C7-0FBAD22F6230/Pythonista3/Documents/' )


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()
