            Buildozer could not find a version that satisfies the requirement threading
            Asked 2022-Mar-24 at 18:30

            Im trying to build my android app on buildozer but i get this error. I think buildozer can't download or can't find the threading module I researched about the error but couldn't find the solution. Can anyone help me please?

            I started the building with "buildozer android debug deploy run" code. I have done this before but it was more simple program.

            How to build an .aab using Buildozer via Docker?
            Asked 2021-Nov-26 at 13:34

            I have just seen that support for AAB files have just been introduced in Python for Android (p4a). Considering that, fom August 2021, new apps are required to publish with the Android App Bundle on Google Play, this is a crucial addition for any Python dev working on Android apps.

            Since I'm currently using Buildozer via Docker, I'd like to know which are the steps to make it generating an .aab instead of (or along to) the traditional .apk

            For the sake of clarity, here is what I use to run Buildozer from inside a container (using Docker for Windows) to make the .apk file:

            The community has finally completed the AAB support for Buildozer. Although it is still a pending pull request, it is already possible to create the AAB, and I have figured out how to do it using Docker.

            I have found two very interesting gists that helped me a lot (this one about creating an AAB with Buildozer on Ubuntu, and another one about signing an AAB on the same platform). However, I have run everything on Windows via Docker, so I think it is a good idea to share how I did it.

            1. Clone the feat/aab-support branch of the Buildozer repository in your local machine:

            Code worked fine, but not the app on kivy
            Asked 2021-Oct-23 at 13:42

            I am trying to create a kivy app for android device. And my code is working great on the PC. But the apk file created using buildozer is not really working on the android. It crashes before opening. But a simple Hello World Example works perfect With the same spec file.. I am not at all using any external modules in the app. Only socket module (which is a python core module.)

            I don't know, what is happening. So I used socket to create a functionality to try the code and in exception I have given the code to send the Exception to my IP. Also I am having a program ready to receive and print the signal. Both these things worked great on the PC. But apk still crashes. Without sending any logs to my PC.

            Asked 2021-Sep-27 at 05:57

            I encountered an error while trying to compile my kivy app using buildozer. It's telling me no such file or directory. When I went to check the directory it's Reminder__armeabi-v7a/project.properties but it seems it needs the directory as Reminder system__armeabi-v7a/project.properties. I don't know if it's advisable to rename the directory because I didn't create the directory. It was created automatically during the build process. Also when I tried renaming the folder to "Reminder system__armeabi-v7a/project.properties", I got the error saying "toolchain.py: error unrecognized argument system system", so I reverted the changes made, and I'm looking for another solution.

            I'm not familiar with buildozer, but the path in your error message contains a space, which is suspicious (unfortunately, many tools still fail to work with spaces in the path...). It seems to come from your package.name variable in the buildozer.spec, which is "Reminder system".

            Simply renaming directories that you didn't make yourself is generally a bad idea. I'm glad you reverted that action.

            The documentation of buildozer.spec states this:

            The Package name is one word with only ASCII characters and/or numbers. It should not contain any special characters. For example, if your application is named Flat Jewels, the package name can be flatjewels.

            So I guess that changing that line to:
