A full fledged GUI integration for the most award winning open-source android screen mirroring system -- scrcpy located on https://github.com/genymobile/scrcpy/ by @rom1v

GUIScrcPy is a Python 3.7 based script (haven't tested compatibility issues so far, but it does not work on Python 3.8 because of incombatibility og PyAutoGUI module)

Why GUIscrcPy?

I had Python as a subject for Class XI, so as a part of it's advanced learning experience, and because of my daily use of scrcpy, wanted to integrate GUI into the CLIbased app!! GUI stands for Graphical User Interface, and Py is not inherited from scrcpy but rather from Py for Python

##Contents The package includes two codelets:

it is the UI system that executes the fixed command to scrcpy engine. These are static.

It is the UI controller, which gives commands to the Scrcpy window to execute certain actions.

Read Issues and Future Releases , before proceeding

• Release 1.9.4 :: Linux only. A pre-build independant package is available. Checkout at Releases. Only do

  $ sudo apt install wmctrl xdotool

  The executable file is in the main file. GUIscrcpy.

• Windows OS is not supported in 1.9.4 due to the incompatibility of PyQt4 (discontinued with Python 3.4)

GUIscrcPy can also be built from source. But that's easy again!

Before everything, make sure you have scrcpy on your path. You can Google it out, on how to do it, next build will have a automated build. Only Scrcpy 1.9

1. (Also called Step 0). Put a star on my repo. Gives support to #opensource!!
2. Install python3. If you don't have it install it using Python Software Website or on Linux by

   sudo apt install python3.7

3. Clone my git repo. or copy paste this to your bash

   git clone https://github.com/srevinsaju/guiscrcpy

4. Activate the virtual env by executing

   source venv/bin/activate on Linux

   call venv/bin/activate on Windows

   You should be able to see (venv)

5. Run the Python Package installer pip and run the commands below

   python3 -m pip install pyside2 pyqt5 psutil pyautogui

   If your OS is Linux-based, to use Toolkit, you need to install wmctrl and xdotool. These are optional to run the toolkit.

6. So you are all set! Run the program by

   python3 main.py

• pyside2 (required)
• pyqt5
• psutil
• pyautogui (for toolkit, required for Windows)

For Linux operating systems, if python raises Xlib>>ModuleNotFoundError, then run

sudo apt install python3-xlib

sudo apt install python3-qt4

To use toolkit (on Linux only), run: sudo apt install wmctrl xdotool

##Issues There are problems with the toolkit in executing certain functions like HOME key and BACK key. I am not able to solve this on Linux because of the Xlib Graphics manager. On Windows, it should work properly, but however, this hasn't been tested so far. I would like to know the results on [email protected]

Surely, this is an initial build with great scope of improvement. Compared to paid Screen Mirroring software, scrcpy gives a lot of advantages, but my future plans are as follows

• Fix HOME_key, BACK_key. (Will have to wait until @rom1v examines my work)
• Add better UI support with adb functions out of scrcpy
• Support python3.8 with PyAutoGUI support. Most of the project is based on PyAutoGUI, which is based on Windows, with less support for Linux. I am on Linux, so i can't test them out, except WINE
• Add service running indicator
• Create pre-built installer and files, Will try fbs build system, after a quite while

Share your ideas, issues with me on github and email [email protected]!!

• MEGA CHANGE :: Migrated from PyQt4 to PyQt5 due to late realization that PyQt4 support for Windows is unfortunately discontinued.
• mainwindow.ui >> xml parsed file loaded in uic loader has been compiled to mainui.py as UI
• toolkit.py is deprecated. toolkit class is restructured into mainwindow class with multiprocesing.
• After PyQt5 update, GTK-LTK-KDE no longer raises pixmap errors
• Unreleased *.ui files for Build. Only dependencies for release are png pixmap files

• Dumped terminal QTextEdit for multiprocessing to prevent QThread hang.
• Restructured StartScrcpy Class as two threads.

• Fixed GUI hang (issue reported by @rom1v) (code has been restructured. the old code is placed in /backup/ folder as main 1.9.2.py. But however, terminal ui QTextEdit is not functional.
