Python apps do not start

[andrecolz]

hello everyone, I have created a simple python app for my MMP.
Looking around I saw that it is possible to run python2.7 on MM, then I started to create an app with pygame.
I created the config.json and launch.sh files like all other apps, I included the app in the App folder.
If I start my MMP in the App I see mine with title, icon etc. but if I try to start it it does not work, this because it cannot find python.
Maybe python only runs with "Ports" emulator? is there any way to start it from App too? or should I use another programming language? I saw that all applications are developed in C right?

There are some environment variables that need to be set/patched. See here: Emu/PORTS/launch_python2.sh#L47

I fixed the problem just like you said at the beginning by putting the environment variables in the launch.sh file
the problem is that I started it from the miyoo app terminal or from bash shell (ssh), and in this case I had to run ctrl+c once to view the app, doing it again I closed it.
if I try to start it by clicking on my app from "App" performs "loading" but then nothing happens and returns to the list "App".

#!/bin/bash
ParasytePath="/mnt/SDCARD/.tmp_update/lib/parasyte"
export PYTHONPATH=$ParasytePath/python2.7:$ParasytePath/python2.7/site-packages:$ParasytePath/python2.7/lib-dynload
export PYTHONHOME=$ParasytePath/python2.7:$ParasytePath/python2.7/site-packages:$ParasytePath/python2.7/lib-dynload
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ParasytePath:$ParasytePath/python2.7/:$ParasytePath/python2.7/lib-dynload:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

/mnt/SDCARD/.tmp_update/bin/parasyte/python2 main.py

even putting the entire path of the main.py directory with and without . / or .. / does not work on bash shell that from "App"

OK, so you only got it working through the built-in Terminal app? (If I understand you correctly)

[andrecolz]

Yes it only works in terminal app (launch.sh is how I sent it above).
It’s probably a bug but in this case every now and then there are flicker effects (the app only shows a green background) and you can see pieces of the terminal app sometimes.

[Aemiii91]

That makes sense, since Terminal and your app are probably fighting over the display.

[andrecolz]

Okk, but for start it from "App" is possible or with python is not possible?
When i click on some app the script from what directory start? The directory of selected app or from some script .tmp?
