I am unfortunately an absolute beginner in programming.
First of all, I'm programming with the PyCharm IDE on a Windows computer, but the script will later run on a RaspberryPi.
I want to turn on my TV with a Python script via HDMI-CEC and I came across libcec.
However, I can't figure out the setup instructions for Windows.
https://github.com/trainman419/python-cec
Can anyone give me a step by step guide on what exactly I need to do to use the CEC commands in Python?
Or should I program with PyCharm directly on the RaspberryPi? This one is way too slow for this task in my opinion. Then I could install the CEC library very easily.
Thanks for your help.

Since last many months I was using intellij idea comfortably but suddenly something went wrong and all my existing projects are not running now. I have the python virtual environment in SDK section along with all the libraries. see here but then also my programs are not working at all. [](https://i.stack.imgur.com/Ck9Bi.png)
See this
some days back All these programs were working perfectly fine. I need help. This is very frustrating.
unfortunately, there is not enough information to provide a proper solution. Please get in touch with IDE support via Help | Contact support...
I am really new to Jenkins and Python so when I have initially researched for this problem, there has been a limit to my understanding. I am looking to write a Python script and for it to be run on Jenkins as part of some automated testing I wish to do. My script interacts with an API and hence imports the 'requests' module on Python. It works fine using the Python interpreter on my local machine but I have had issues when I have tried using the Jenkins Python script builder and so I am looking for a way around this.
As I mentioned, I have looked around the internet for solutions but as my knowledge on this topic is limited I have found it difficult to understand certain ideas that have been mentioned on the web. One lead I have had is related to the use of virtual environments on Jenkins, but as its something I've never used, I have struggled implementing it. I have installed the ShiningPanda Plugin on Jenkins, but I am unsure how to use it.
Any help given is greatly appreciated :)
Thanks
I'm looking for an equivalent Python library that will work when I run my script on Raspberry Pi. I'm under the impression that pywinauto only works on windows machine.
I want to control some inputs to a GUI launched by my script, using my script. Apart from pywinauto I have no idea how to do this. I thought about using command line to control the software directly, but if there is a simpler way I would really appreciate knowing about it.
Thanks for your time.
ATSPI is an Linux accessibility technology to obtain GUI text/rectangle properties programmatically. See how to find and run ATSPI registry daemon and how to enable ATSPI for the most popular types of GUI apps. Usually it's
$ /usr/libexec/at-spi-registryd &
There is a Python bindings for ATSPI. See this answer for details:
How to install pyatspi?
The pyatspi package has too many dependencies like pygobject etc. It also requires some compilation during installation steps. We think this is not user friendly so we decided to use libatspi.so directly (without any dependencies). This work status can be tracked here: https://github.com/pywinauto/pywinauto/pull/449
There is no exact deadline for pywinauto 0.7.0 with this feature (it's a hobby project), but I would say this summer sounds realistic.
I have been learning a lot of python recently using sublime text on a mac, I installed python 3 and have mainly been using that but as a lot of documentation is in python 2.7 and it comes with the Mac I decided to start using 2.7 instead. I have quite a few libraries installed (for python 3 and for 2.7) When I load my terminal it takes a good 15 seconds for it to get to the prompt and it takes the same amount of time to build python 2.7 from sublime text before it starts executing the code.
I know this post is probably too vague but if anyone has had a similar experience or could suggest anything to point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.
Thanks.
Run python -vvv to dump out imports Python is doing when it starts up. If the slowdown is by a third party library this should give a hint.
Check your ~/.bashrc script for duplicate entries (see comments below).
I very recently wrote a program for a friend where it simplifies some important daily calculations for him/her. Now, the problem I am having is that I want to compile the code into an executable program so that he/she can comfortably run it on their machine, perhaps with a simple graphical interface or whatnot.
I have tried using cx_Freeze with Python 3.3.0 64 bit but to no avail (the program simply refuses to start on their machine; I even tried generating an executable via 32-bit Python, but also to no avail). What I then thought was that I could perhaps generate an executable program via PyGame? But the fact of the matter is that I have never used any Python-related program except the IDLE, so I am not sure what to do and look for.
Another option would perhaps be to convert the Python 3.3.0 code to Python 2.x, but the problem is that I am not familiar with Python 2.x and neither is there any automated converter available (as far as I know). I was wondering whether anyone of you could direct me to any good sources/links, since those I have been ferociously Googling are rather inconcrete.
You could just use py2exe. It is compatible with python 3. I have seen tutorials for it on youtube.
You could try embedding it in a C program, and compiling that for your executable. A decent tutorial is in the python docs at http://docs.python.org/2/extending/embedding.html
PyInstaller "is a program that converts (packages) Python programs into stand-alone executables, under Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris and AIX" and gives you one standalone executable file.
Even as a noob Python user I have succeeded to pack my app using PyInstaller (relatively) easily.
