Kary is a tool to create presentation using Kivy language.
You need to have Kivy 1.0.7 minimum to make it run (http://kivy.org/)
kary <directory_of_your_presentation>
OR
kary <filename.kv>Kary is defining few classes needed for creating slides:
- Slides: a widget that will contain a list of Slide. It must be your root widget, and cannot be used inside another widgets.
- Slide: base widget for constructing more complex Slide, like with or without title, with image content, or video content etc.
- SlidesBackground: this widget will be always created by Slides. Add a rule if you want to customize the background of slides.
- SlidesForeground: this widget will be always created by Slides. Add a rule if you want to customize the foreground of slides.
Create a directory with this layout:
mypresentation/
presentation.kv
templates.kv (optional)
... (put any files you want to use in the kv)In templates.kv, you could define some Kivy template to be used in your `presentation.kv`:
#: kivy 1.0
# For all your slides, you want to have the same Label for representing
# a title, with always the same background and settings.
[Title@Label]:
text: ctx.text
text_size: self.width - 60, None
halign: 'left'
size_hint_y: None
height: 100
font_size: 36
color: labelcolor
canvas.before:
Color:
rgba: 0, 0, 0, .2
Rectangle:
pos: self.pos
size: self.size
# This is a simple slide with title on top and content on bottom.
[SlideContent@Slide]:
GridLayout:
pos: root.pos
cols: 1
Title:
text: ctx.title
BoxLayout:
padding: 50
Label:
color: labelcolor
text: ''.join(ctx.content)
font_size: ctx.get('font_size', 36)
text_size: self.width, NoneThen, in the presentation.kv, you can use it like that:
#!/usr/bin/env kary
#:kivy 1.0
Slides:
SlideContent:
title: 'Hello world'
content:
('This is the first line\n',
'This is the second line')
SlideContent:
title: 'My last slide'
content: ('Any questions ?, )Then, open a terminal, and type:
kary mypresentationAnd your presentation will be opened !
- Left: previous slide
- Right: next slide
- Up: next section
- Down: previous section slide
- Home: first slide slide
- End: last slide
