Description

Pythonista is a complete scripting environment for Python 3.10, running right on your iPad or iPhone, so you can develop and run Python scripts on the go.

Like Python itself, "batteries are included" – from popular third-party modules like requests, numpy, matplotlib, pandas (and many more) to modules that are tailor-made for iOS. With Pythonista, your scripts can access sensor/location data, your photo library, contacts, reminders, the clipboard, and more, allowing you to harness the full potential of both Python and iOS.

Pythonista is designed with a user-friendly interface that makes it easy for anyone to get started with coding, regardless of skill level. The complete Python documentation is also available for offline reading in the app.

Pythonista is not just for learning and practicing Python – it's also a powerful tool for automating iOS with multiple app extensions. You can invoke scripts directly from the share sheet or a custom system keyboard in almost any app, and integrate scripts with Shortcuts and Siri. With Pythonista, it's easy to run your scripts whenever you need them, without having to switch between different apps.

Features:

> Powerful code editor with syntax highlighting, code completion, and scripting support

> Interactive prompt with code completion, command history, and support for showing images

> Integrated visual debugger and object inspector

> Complete offline documentation with quick lookup directly from the editor

> Various beautiful light and dark color themes, and a theme editor to make your own

> UI editor for quick prototyping

> Integrated PEP 8 style checker and code formatter

> Supports most of the Python standard library and additional modules for graphics, sound, and iOS integration (for example clipboard, contacts, reminders, photos, ui...)

> Many popular third-party modules included, for example requests, numpy, matplotlib, pandas, Pillow...

> Lots of included examples

> Universal app for iPad and iPhone

> Share sheet extension for running scripts from almost any app

> Scriptable system-wide keyboard to use Python in any app that edits text

> Advanced integration with the Shortcuts app, allowing you to use Python scripts as actions in shortcuts and personal automations.

Please note that Pythonista is not designed to enable the installation or download of additional modules written in compiled languages (C/C++). While many popular native libraries are included and work out-of-the-box, it is generally not possible to install additional modules with C/C++ dependencies.

The name "Pythonista" is used with kind permission from the Python Software Foundation.

Excellent app... but

This app is great, i love being able to use python wherever i go. It even has an objective c capabilities. But i have one problem as of late. I've been using the StaSh module to install using PyPI, but for some reason the requests module isn't working anymore? Whenever i try to access requests i get an error that httplib isn't found! I can't even manually install it because for some reason i can't access the site packages folder...

5 star app but this one bug is annoying.

Attention to detail

Astonishing app - the craftsmanship and attention to detail warms my heart. For example a drop down let’s me jump to any function of a file quickly - but then I discover that exact same drop down let’s me jump to any UI element when editing a UI screen - nice. Swiping to access the console, or help, or the editor is a smooth metaphor. Lots of nice touches like this.

The inclusion of the requests library and beautiful soup plus the ability to design custom UIs means I can click a button and retrieve and scrape pages for info and display it in nice ways. Wish I could install more libraries via ‘pip’ though. I’m a python programmer by trade, and am finding myself playing and coding using Pythonista on my iPhone and iPad Pro in my leisure time! Looking forward to Python 3.6 support I hope soon.

Nice app, needs updating

It’s a very nice app, but the Python world has continued to move on, and Pythonista is not keeping up.

Specially, it doesn’t support python 3.7, when even 3.8 is nearly out. This means some modern async, type hinting, __future__, and debugging features are missing.

Tooling has also remained static and is now quite outdated. It supports pyflakes, but none of the modern tools that have gained traction in the Python world are available, notably MyPy and Black.
