Device

lib.device.Device

device is an automatically generated module containing the Device class. This class provides access to device-specific constants (as set in the device/DEVICENAME/definition.yml file, and is designed to assist in building multi-platform apps.

The class has two main attributes: Device.vals contains a dictionary of constants for this device. Device.feats contains a tuple of features that this device has.

Usage examples:

from lib.device import Device

# acess device constants
width = Device.display_width
height = Device.display_height
name = Device.name

# Check for device features
if 'touchscreen' in Device:
    get_touch()

if `keyboard` in Device or 'CARDPUTER' in device:
    keyboard_stuff()

Note: Device is a singleton and can't be called or re-initialized after importing.
