Python 3.7.3 : Using the win32com - part 001.

The tutorial is about win32com python module using the python 3.7.3.
First exameple is simple:
import sys
import win32com.client
from win32com.client import constants

speaker = win32com.client.Dispatch("SAPI.SpVoice")
print ("Type word or phrase, then enter.")
while 1:
      text_to_say = input("> ")
      speaker.Speak(text_to_say)
Let's run it.
The Microsoft Speech SDK to speak what you type in from the keyboard.
C:\Python373>python.exe speak_001.py
Type word or phrase, then enter.
> this is a test
The next example is more complex and uses speech recognition to create outputs.
You can change this example to execute tasks.
# This is a sample code for speech recognition using the MS Speech API

from win32com.client import constants
import win32com.client
import pythoncom
 
""" 
You will see a voice say: Started successfully
The you need to start the speech recognition tool.
After running this, then saying "One", "Two", "Three" or "Four" should
display "You said One" etc on the console.
"""
 
class SpeechRecognition:
    """ Initialize the speech recognition with the passed in list of words """
    def __init__(self, wordsToAdd):

        # For text-to-speech
        self.speaker = win32com.client.Dispatch("SAPI.SpVoice")

        # For speech recognition - first create a listener
        self.listener = win32com.client.Dispatch("SAPI.SpSharedRecognizer")

        # Then a recognition context
        self.context = self.listener.CreateRecoContext()

        # which has an associated grammar
        self.grammar = self.context.CreateGrammar()

        # Do not allow free word recognition - only command and control
        # recognizing the words in the grammar only
        self.grammar.DictationSetState(0)

        # Create a new rule for the grammar, that is top level (so it begins
        # a recognition) and dynamic (ie we can change it at runtime)
        self.wordsRule = self.grammar.Rules.Add("wordsRule",
                        constants.SRATopLevel + constants.SRADynamic, 0)

        # Clear the rule (not necessary first time, but if we're changing it
        # dynamically then it's useful)
        self.wordsRule.Clear()

        # And go through the list of words, adding each to the rule
        [ self.wordsRule.InitialState.AddWordTransition(None, word) for word in wordsToAdd ]

        # Set the wordsRule to be active
        self.grammar.Rules.Commit()
        self.grammar.CmdSetRuleState("wordsRule", 1)

        # Commit the changes to the grammar
        self.grammar.Rules.Commit()

        # And add an event handler that's called back when recognition occurs
        self.eventHandler = ContextEvents(self.context)

        # Announce we've started
        self.say("Started successfully")

Python 3.7.3 : Use the tweepy to deal with twitter api - part 002.

The tutorial for today is about with python 3.7.3
The development team comes with this intro:
An easy-to-use Python library for accessing the Twitter API.
You need to have an application on twitter with tokens and key, see here.
The first step is to install this python module:
C:\Python373\Scripts>pip install tweepy
...
Successfully built PySocks
Installing collected packages: PySocks, tweepy
Successfully installed PySocks-1.6.8 tweepy-3.7.0
This is the source code I used.
Is very simple to understand:
import tweepy

# set the keys strings
consumer_key = ''
consumer_secret = ''
access_token = ''
access_token_secret = ''

# get  the keys 
input("consumer_key :")
input("consumer_secret :")
input("access_token :")
input("access_token_secret :")
print("--------")

# authentification and get data 
auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret)
auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret)
api = tweepy.API(auth)
user = api.me()
print (user.name)
user = api.me()
print(user.name)
print(user.location)
search = input("search :")
numberOfTweets = int(input("number of tweets :"))
phrase = input("response phrase :")
for follower in tweepy.Cursor(api.followers).items():
    try:
        follower.follow()
    except tweepy.error.TweepError:
        pass

print("Followed everyone that is following " + user.name)
for tweet in tweepy.Cursor(api.search, search).items(numberOfTweets):
    try:
    #Reply
        print('\nTweet by: @' + tweet.user.screen_name)
        print('ID: @' + str(tweet.user.id))
        tweetId = tweet.user.id
        username = tweet.user.screen_name
        api.update_status("@" + username + " " + phrase, in_reply_to_status_id = tweetId)
        print ("Replied with " + phrase)
    except tweepy.TweepError as e:
        print(e.reason)
    except StopIteration:
        break

for tweet in tweepy.Cursor(api.search, search).items(numberOfTweets):
    try:
        #Reply
        tweet.favorite()
        print('Favorited the tweet') 
        #Retweet
        tweet.retweet()
        print('Retweeted the tweet')   
        #Follow
        tweet.user.follow()
        print('Followed the user')        
    except tweepy.TweepError as e:
        print(e.reason)
    except StopIteration:
        break
The result is this:
C:\Python373>python.exe tweepy_001.py
catafest
catafest
Romania, Suceava, Falticeni
search :Catalin
number of tweets :1
response phrase :Festila
Followed everyone that is following catafest

Tweet by: @rumeys1a
ID: @1103384469703196673
Replied with Festila
Favorited the tweet
Retweeted the tweet
Followed the user
You can see what are the technical follow limits for twitter here.

Python 3.7.3 : The google-cloud-vision python module - part 002.

I used Windows 8.1 and python 3.7.3 version.
The first step is to install the python module.
C:\Python373\Scripts>pip install --upgrade google-cloud-vision
You can see another tutorial about this python module here.
Let's test the python module.
C:\Python373>python
Python 3.7.3 (v3.7.3:ef4ec6ed12, Mar 25 2019, 22:22:05) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD6
4)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from google.cloud import vision
>>> from google.cloud.vision import types
>>> from PIL import Image, ImageDraw
You need to have billing enabled for your Google Cloud Platform project.
Evaluated prices can vary and Google gives us this online calculator, or let us test with a FREE account with 300$.
To change the billing account go to the Google Cloud Platform Console.
Open the console left side menu and select Billing.
If you have more than one billing account then you need to solve this issue, see this webpage.
The Cloud Vision API integrates vision features, like: including image labeling, face, logo, and landmark detection, optical character recognition (OCR), and detection of explicit content, into applications.
You need to set the authentification for your google account and your project, see this page.
The next step is to instantiate a client:
client = vision.ImageAnnotatorClient()
Google provides this tutorial with the same steps as into this tutorial.
You can test and read more about Google Vision on the official page.

Python 3.7.3 : Using the cognitive face detection from Azure Microsoft .

The Microsoft Azure comes with this free feature named Computer Vision:
This API key is currently active
7 days remaining
Distill actionable information from images
5,000 transactions, 20 per minute.

You can test with the cognitive_face python module from GitHub.
Another good example of extract printed text can be found at docs.microsoft.com.
Let's install it:
C:\Python373\Scripts>pip install cognitive_face
...
Installing collected packages: cognitive-face
Successfully installed cognitive-face-1.4.2
Now a simple intro using the dir:
C:\Python373>python.exe
Python 3.7.3 (v3.7.3:ef4ec6ed12, Mar 25 2019, 22:22:05) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD6

_group', 'large_person_group_person', 'large_person_group_person_face', 'person'
, 'person_group', 'util']
For detections you need to use the face with detect:
import cognitive_face as CF
# Replace with your valid Subscription Key here.
KEY = '111111111111'  
CF.Key.set(KEY)
# Replace with your regional Base URL based by 
# https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/try/cognitive-services/my-apis/?apiSlug=computer-vision

BASE_URL = 'https://westcentralus.api.cognitive.microsoft.com/vision/v2.0'  
CF.BaseUrl.set(BASE_URL)

img_url = 'https://previews.123rf.com/images/boarding1now/boarding1now150

Python 3.7.3 : Try Ethereum with web3.

Today I tested the web3 python module.
This is the Ethereum python module.
More about this python module can be found here.
Ethereum programming has a large area of development.
For transaction you can use:
from web3 import Web3, HTTPProvider, IPCProvider, WebsocketProvider
I tested with an account from infura.io.
>>> from web3 import Web3, HTTPProvider, IPCProvider, WebsocketProvider
>>> w3 = Web3(HTTPProvider('ropsten.infura.io/v3/1f2fb5d1e1be4c11acdbbb07a2e06a1

Python 3.7.3 : Fix kivy python module installation.

Kivy is a multi-platform GUI development library for Python, running on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS.
Today I tested kivy python module with python version 3.7.3 and I got some errors but I fixed.
I started with the default installation using the pip tool.
C:\Python373>cd Scripts
C:\Python373\Scripts>pip install kivy
...
Installing collected packages: docutils, pygments, Kivy-Garden, kivy
...
Successfully installed kivy-1.10.1
I used a default script to test the kivy python module.
When I tested I got these errors:

Successfully installed kivy.deps.sdl2-0.1.18
When I tested again, I got another error:
[CRITICAL] [App         ] Unable to get a Window, abort.
I try to see if the install of these python modules are right:
C:\Python373>cd Scripts
C:\Python373\Scripts>pip install pypiwin32
Requirement already satisfied: pypiwin32 in c:\python373\lib\site-packages (223)

If you search on web you will se this is a common error and some users use this solution:
python -m pip install docutils pygments pypiwin32 kivy.deps.sdl2
python -m pip install kivy.deps.glew
python -m pip install kivy.deps.gstreamer
Hope this help you with python programming and kivy interface.

Python 3.7.3 : Get location of International Space Station.

Today I tested the urllib python module with python 3.7.3 and json python module.
The issue was to get the location of International Space Station - Open Notify.
The International Space Station is moving at close to 28,000 km/h so its location changes really fast! Where is it right now?
This is an open source project to provide a simple programming interface for some of NASA’s awesome data.

Python 3.7.3 and memory_profiler python module.

Today I will come up with a simpler and more effective tutorial in python programming.
First, I need to install the psutil python module for the example of this tutorial.
C:\Python373>cd Scripts
C:\Python373\Scripts>pip install psutil
Python memory monitor is very important for debugging application performance and fix bugs.
You can solve this issue is the python module named memory_profiler, see more here.
Let's install this python module with the pip python tool:
C:\Python373\Scripts>pip install memory_profiler
Let's start with a simple python script example:
import psutil

def test_psutil():
 # gives a single float value
 print(psutil.cpu_percent())
 # gives an object with many fields
 print(psutil.virtual_memory())
 # you can convert that object to a dictionary 
 print(dict(psutil.virtual_memory()._asdict()))
if __name__ == '__main__':
 test_psutil()

C:\Python373>python psutil_001.py
0.0
svmem(total=4171108352, available=1153679360, percent=72.3, used=3017428992, fre
e=1153679360)
{'total': 4171108352, 'available': 1153671168, 'percent': 72.3, 'used': 30174371
84, 'free': 1153671168}
The same result can see if you use memory_profiler
C:\Python373>python -m memory_profiler psutil_001.py
100.0
svmem(total=4171108352, available=1149018112, percent=72.5, used=3022090240, fre
e=1149018112)
{'total': 4171108352, 'available': 1149087744, 'percent': 72.5, 'used': 30220206
08, 'free': 1149087744}
Let's decorate python source code with @profile annotation to have a good output.
import psutil
@profile
def test_psutil():
 # gives a single float value
 print(psutil.cpu_percent())
 # gives an object with many fields
 print(psutil.virtual_memory())
 # you can convert that object to a dictionary 
 print(dict(psutil.virtual_memory()._asdict()))
if __name__ == '__main__':
 test_psutil()

Sure, this error tells us the decorate not working in the default way.
C:\Python373>python psutil_001.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "psutil_001.py", line 2, in 
    @profile
NameError: name 'profile' is not defined
In this case, the decorate profile works great with the python module and give us all the information we need:
C:\Python373>python -m memory_profiler psutil_001.py
100.0
svmem(total=4171108352, available=1022672896, percent=75.5, used=3148435456, fre
e=1022672896)
{'total': 4171108352, 'available': 1022783488, 'percent': 75.5, 'used': 31483248
64, 'free': 1022783488}
Filename: psutil_001.py

onary
     9   15.234 MiB    0.004 MiB        print(dict(psutil.virtual_memory()._asdi
ct()))
Let's test with another python script named 001.py :
from memory_profiler import profile

@profile(precision=4)
def test():
    a = 0
    a = a + 1

if __name__ == "__main__":
    test()
The result with precision=4 is this:
C:\Python373>python -m memory_profiler 001.py
Filename: 001.py

Line #    Mem usage    Increment   Line Contents
================================================
     3  15.3945 MiB  15.3945 MiB   @profile(precision=4)
     4                             def test():
     5  15.3945 MiB   0.0000 MiB       a = 0
     6  15.3945 MiB   0.0000 MiB       a = a + 1
If we change the precision=1 then this is the result:
C:\Python373>python -m memory_profiler 002.py
Filename: 002.py

Line #    Mem usage    Increment   Line Contents
================================================
     3     15.4 MiB     15.4 MiB   @profile(precision=1)
     4                             def test():
     5     15.4 MiB      0.0 MiB       a = 0
     6     15.4 MiB      0.0 MiB       a = a + 1
A good source of information for this python module can be found at GitHub.

Django REST framework - part 001.

Today I will introduce you a tutorial to fix some of the necessary elements presented in the old tutorial.
The manage tool shell can also give us some info:
C:\Python373\Scripts\example>python manage.py shell
Python 3.7.3 (v3.7.3:ef4ec6ed12, Mar 25 2019, 22:22:05) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD6
4)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>> from test001.models import test
>>> from django.db.models import Count, Min, Max, Avg
>>> out = test.objects.all
>>> out
...
One note about error method, do not use like this:
>>> out = test.objects.all
>>> out[0]
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
TypeError: 'method' object is not subscriptable
The correct way method is:
>>> out = test.objects.all()
>>> out
]>
>>> out[0]

>>> vars(out[0])
{'_state': , 'id'
: 1, 'first_name': 'Cătălin George', 'last_name': 'Feștilă'}
We can use the annotate.
This issue can solve it into this way:
>>> minimal = test.objects.annotate(Min('last_name'))
>>> minimal
]>
>>> minimal[0]

>>> vars(minimal[0])
{'_state': , 'id'
: 1, 'first_name': 'Cătălin George', 'last_name': 'Feștilă', 'last_name__min': '
Feștilă'}
See the result of the annotate add the last_name__min value.
I created another class named city with just one field named city_name and I fill with one value:
All changes are posted at the end of this tutorial.
Let's test with the shell some of these new changes:
C:\Python373\Scripts\example>python manage.py shell
Python 3.7.3 (v3.7.3:ef4ec6ed12, Mar 25 2019, 22:22:05) [MSC v.1916 64 bit 
(AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>> from test001.models import test,city
>>> from django.db.models import Count, Min, Max, Avg
>>> out_test = test.objects.all()
>>> out_city = city.objects.all()
>>> out_test
]>
>>> out_city
]>
>>> vars(out_city[0])
{'_state': , 'id'
: 1, 'city_name': 'Fălticeni'}
We can easy test the new example:
>>> minimal = test.objects.annotate(Min('last_name'))
>>> minimal
]>
>>> vars(minimal[0])
{'_state': , 'id'
: 1, 'first_name': 'Cătălin George', 'last_name': 'Feștilă', 'last_name__min': '
Feștilă'}
>>> minimal = city.objects.annotate(Min('city_name'))
>>> minimal
]>
>>> vars(minimal[0])
{'_state': , 'id'
: 1, 'city_name': 'Fălticeni', 'city_name__min': 'Fălticeni'}
>>> filter_test = test.objects.filter(id = 1)
>>> vars(filter_test)
{'model': , '_db': None, '_hints': {}, 'query': 
, '_result_cache': 
None, '_sticky_filter': False, '_for_write': False, '_prefetch_related_lookups':
(), '_prefetch_done': False, '_known_related_objects': {}, '_iterable_class': , '_fields': None}
>>> vars(filter_test[0])
{'_state': , 'id'
: 1, 'first_name': 'Cătălin George', 'last_name': 'Feștilă'}
Feel free to test with my old and the new example:
# models.py
from django.db import models

class test(models.Model):
    first_name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
    last_name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
    
class city(models.Model):
    city_name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
#admin.py
from django.contrib import admin
from .models import test, city
admin.site.register(test)
admin.site.register(city)
#serializers.py
from rest_framework import serializers
from .models import test, city

class test_serializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = test
        fields = ('id', 'first_name', 'last_name')

class city_serializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):        
    class Meta:
        model = city
        fields = ('id', 'city_name')
#views.py
from django.shortcuts import render
from rest_framework import viewsets
from .models import test, city
from .serializers import test_serializer, city_serializer

class test_view(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    #query to get all information from database
    queryset = test.objects.all()
    serializer_class = test_serializer

class city_view(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    #query to get all information from database
    queryset = city.objects.all()
    serializer_class = city_serializer
#urls.py
from django.urls import path, include
from . import views
from rest_framework import routers

router = routers.DefaultRouter()
router.register('test001', views.test_view)
router.register('city', views.city_view)
#add to path 
urlpatterns = [
    path('', include(router.urls))
]

Python 3.7.3 and Django REST framework.

Today I tested something simpler for beginners: Django REST framework.
Once you understand how it works then it's simple to use.
This tutorial does not address the security issues generated by the REST, Django framework.
The official webpage comes with many information and technical specifications for this API:
Django REST framework is a powerful and flexible toolkit for building Web APIs.
The example I've submitted is built into the Scripts folder because I did not use the virtual environment.
Let's start installing the python module.
C:\Python373\> cd Scripts
C:\Python373\Scripts\>pip install djangorestframework
C:\Python373\Scripts\>django-admin startproject example
C:\Python373\Scripts\>cd example 
C:\Python373\Scripts\>python manage.py migrate 
C:\Python373\Scripts\>python manage.py createsuperuser
C:\Python373\Scripts\>python manage.py startapp test001
In the example folder we will make changes.
First is the settings.py file:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
    'rest_framework',
    'test001']
The next file is the urls.py:
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('', include('test001.urls'))
]
Also make changes in the test001 folder
You must create a python script and call it urls.py:
from django.urls import path, include

# this urlpatterns will fill later 
urlpatterns = []
You make changes to the file models.py and create a named class test.
This class will have two fields that we will update.
from django.db import models

class test(models.Model):
    first_name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
    last_name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
44/5000
The following commands will synchronize the database:
C:\Python373\Scripts\example>python manage.py makemigrations
...
  test001\migrations\0001_initial.py
    - Create model test
C:\Python373\Scripts\example>python manage.py migrate
...
Running migrations:
...
Another step is to add the test into admin.py script:
from django.contrib import admin
from .models import test
admin.site.register(test)
Serializers allow complex data such as querysets and model instances to be converted to native Python datatypes that can then be easily rendered into JSON , XML or other content types.
Let's create an serializers.py python script into test001 folder and use this code:
from rest_framework import serializers
from .models import test

class test_serializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = test
        fields = ('id', 'first_name', 'last_name')
Also is need to update the views.py python script:
from django.shortcuts import render
from rest_framework import viewsets
from .models import test
from .serializers import test_serializer

class test_view(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    #query to get all information from database
    queryset = test.objects.all()
    serializer_class = test_serializer
Now because is all create the last step is to fix the urls.py from test001 folder with the routers.
The REST framework adds support for automatic URL routing to Django.
from django.urls import path, include
from . import views
from rest_framework import routers

router = routers.DefaultRouter()
router.register('test001', views.test_view)
#add to path 
urlpatterns = [
    path('', include(router.urls))
]
Now you can test it with:
C:\Python373\Scripts\example>python manage.py runserver
If you want to make changes into models.py then you will need to use the commands to synchronize the database after these use"commands
makemigrations and migrate to fix errors.
If you encounter such run-time errors
"GET /static/assets/js/docs.min.js HTTP/1.1" 404 1667..."
These errors can be the result of settings like DEBUG, STATICFILES_DIRS or STATIC_ROOT from file settings.py.
Then you need to execute python manage.py collectstatic and Django goes through all directories where static files can be found and places them in your static root.
The result of this tutorial can be see on my youtube channel:

Google's Python Class - another step.

Here's something I like and I hope it should be known in the Python community.
Some people from Google want to attract the python community into a learning process.
Although most of the API documentation examples do not exist in the Python programming language, they have not disappeared.
Let's hope this little step will increase the chances of programming Google with the Python programming language.
This material was created by Nick Parlante working in the engEDU group at Google.
Welcome to Google's Python Class -- this is a free class for people with a little bit of programming experience who want to learn Python. The class includes written materials, lecture videos, and lots of code exercises to practice Python coding. These materials are used within Google to introduce Python to people who have just a little programming experience. The first exercises work on basic Python concepts like strings and lists, building up to the later exercises which are full programs dealing with text files, processes, and http connections. The class is geared for people who have a little bit of programming experience in some language, enough to know what a "variable" or "if statement" is. Beyond that, you do not need to be an expert programmer to use this material.

Python 3.7.3 : Testing firebase with Python 3.7.3 .

The tutorial for today consists of using the Firebase service with python version 3.7.3 .
As you know Firebase offers multiple free and paid services.
In order to use the Python programming language, we need to use the pip utility to enter the required modules.
If your installation requires other python modules then you will need to install them in the same way.
C:\Python373>pip install firebase-admin
C:\Python373\Scripts>pip install google-cloud-firestore
The next step is to log in with a firebase account and create or use a project with a database.
You must use this link to see your project data and create your JSON configuration file for access.
Here's a screenshot of an old project in another programming language that I used for this tutorial.

At point 1, you will find Project Settings - Service accounts and you will need to use the Generate new private key button.
This will generate a JSON file that we will use in the python script.
Be careful to define the path to the python script file.
At point 2, you will find the database or you will need to create it to use it.
The script I'm going to present has commented on the lines for a better understanding of how to use it.
import firebase_admin
from firebase_admin import credentials
from firebase_admin import firestore

# the go-test.json from my project settings 
cred = credentials.Certificate("go-test.json")

# start using firebase python modules 
firebase_admin.initialize_app(cred)

# access the database
database = firestore.client()

# access the collection with limit 
my_ref = database.collection("test").limit(2)

# show the values from database
try:
    docs = my_ref.stream()
    for doc in docs:
         print(u'Doc Data:{}'.format(doc.to_dict()))
except:
    print(u'Missing data')

# result running
#Doc Data:{'nrcrt': 1, 'string_value': 'this is a text'}
#Doc Data:{'name': 'test', 'added': 'just now'}

# add data to database
my_ref_add = database.collection("test")
my_ref_add.add({u'nickname': u'catafest', u'friend': u'Last Ocelot'})

# show the new database values
try:
    docs = my_ref_add.stream()
    for doc in docs:
         print(u'Doc Data:{}'.format(doc.to_dict()))
except:
    print(u'Missing data')

# result running
#Doc Data:{'nrcrt': 1, 'string_value': 'this is a text'}
#Doc Data:{'friend': 'Last Ocelot', 'nickname': 'catafest'}
#Doc Data:{'name': 'test', 'added': 'just now'}

# get just one 
doc = database.collection('test').document('doc_id').get()

# show create time 
print(doc.create_time)

# result running
#seconds: 1556014478
#nanos: 460439000
