I thought to make one simple circular progress bar using kivy and python. I searched online documentation and GitHub repertoires, but not found single proper example explaining the concept of circular progress bar .
Like the image attached below. I thought to develop. Please anyone help me in this issue.
I've made a widget to represent what you want to achieve. There are some limitations however, precisely:
Instead of just setting the progress bar value using .value
, you need to call the set_value
method. I am very unsure what should be done to achieve the same behaviour as in original ProgressBar
class;
You have to specify the size to achieve a circle, because the object itself is an ellipse.
Here is the code, also with example usage:
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.progressbar import ProgressBar
from kivy.core.text import Label as CoreLabel
from kivy.lang.builder import Builder
from kivy.graphics import Color, Ellipse, Rectangle
from kivy.clock import Clock
class CircularProgressBar(ProgressBar):
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
super(CircularProgressBar, self).__init__(**kwargs)
# Set constant for the bar thickness
self.thickness = 40
# Create a direct text representation
self.label = CoreLabel(text="0%", font_size=self.thickness)
# Initialise the texture_size variable
self.texture_size = None
# Refresh the text
self.refresh_text()
# Redraw on innit
self.draw()
def draw(self):
with self.canvas:
# Empty canvas instructions
self.canvas.clear()
# Draw no-progress circle
Color(0.26, 0.26, 0.26)
Ellipse(pos=self.pos, size=self.size)
# Draw progress circle, small hack if there is no progress (angle_end = 0 results in full progress)
Color(1, 0, 0)
Ellipse(pos=self.pos, size=self.size,
angle_end=(0.001 if self.value_normalized == 0 else self.value_normalized*360))
# Draw the inner circle (colour should be equal to the background)
Color(0, 0, 0)
Ellipse(pos=(self.pos[0] + self.thickness / 2, self.pos[1] + self.thickness / 2),
size=(self.size[0] - self.thickness, self.size[1] - self.thickness))
# Center and draw the progress text
Color(1, 1, 1, 1)
Rectangle(texture=self.label.texture, size=self.texture_size,
pos=(self.size[0]/2 - self.texture_size[0]/2, self.size[1]/2 - self.texture_size[1]/2))
def refresh_text(self):
# Render the label
self.label.refresh()
# Set the texture size each refresh
self.texture_size = list(self.label.texture.size)
def set_value(self, value):
# Update the progress bar value
self.value = value
# Update textual value and refresh the texture
self.label.text = str(int(self.value_normalized*100)) + "%"
self.refresh_text()
# Draw all the elements
self.draw()
class Main(App):
# Simple animation to show the circular progress bar in action
def animate(self, dt):
if self.root.value < 80:
self.root.set_value(self.root.value + 1)
else:
self.root.set_value(0)
# Simple layout for easy example
def build(self):
container = Builder.load_string(
'''CircularProgressBar:
size_hint: (None, None)
height: 200
width: 200
max: 80''')
# Animate the progress bar
Clock.schedule_interval(self.animate, 0.1)
return container
if __name__ == '__main__':
Main().run()
Output:
