Program and Script SourceCode

I do a little programming in my free time using python, and it's nice and pretty enjoyable. I put together some applications and command line utilities to serve my needs or just to do something creative, and the code is below. Enjoy.

Projects I'm Working On

DescribeMe

A small utility which you can enter an image path to and have a program return you a description of it, using the Google Teseract Engine library. Useful if you're blind. Currently, it doesn't work, but here is what I have so far.

• Pytesseract
• Pyperclip

MergeUtil

This is actually a fully completed utility that allows you to merge an audio track of choice to a video track of choice. It needs some work before I can compile it into a Windows executable, but for now it works just fine as a python script

• MoviePY

  from moviepy.editor import * import tkinter as tk from tkinter import filedialog from time import sleep from os import getlogin from sys import exit import msvcrt def main(): root = tk.Tk() videopath = filedialog.askopenfilename(title="select your video track") audiopath = filedialog.askopenfilename(title="Select your audio track of filetype WAV, MP3, or OGG") root.withdraw() exportname = input("Enter Name Of File To Save To") extention = ".mp4" exportname = "/music/" + exportname + extention user = getlogin() fullpath = "c:/users/" + user + exportname print("Merging tracks...") videotrack = VideoFileClip(videopath) audiotrack = AudioFileClip(audiopath) merged = videotrack.set_audio(audiotrack) merged.write_videofile(fullpath, temp_audiofile="c:/users/public/gay.mp3") sleep(5) print("Merge complete. This file has been saved in your Music folder") sleep(2) main() print("Press Q to quit or M to merge more tracks") while True: if msvcrt.kbhit(): close = msvcrt.getch() if close == b'q': exit() elif close == b'm': main()

  Save For Later

  This is actually a very cool program. It's a service that I wrote because I do a lot of web surfing on my phone, and a lot of the time I come across links that I want to download, but obviously doing it on mobile is kinda not the way to go. So instead, I developed this script, which runs in the background on your PC and checks for new downloads, which you can send to it via a serverside php page. It works well, but is not without its flaws. For instance, anyone in the world could go to that page and post links to the script, and download anything they wanted to your machine: viruses, malware, etc. Protecting the page with http o auth or similar is up to you as a user. This script also cannot download from links that redirect to files, yet, which is a feature I plan to add. Check it all out below.

  Third-Party Dependancies:
  • win10toast
  Notes:
  • For testing purposes, all program data is saved to c:\users\public\saveforlater so as to cause the least amount of errors when debugging file creation

  Stations

  I used to be on a track team, and during snow days or days when we couldn't go to school, I'd still have to work out in some way. I looked into various interval timers from the app store but most of them were payed in some way. What I wanted was a program that would run me through a set of stations for what we call high intensity interval training. So, say I had a format such as: pushups, squats, planks, situps, mountain climbers, exploding lunges, russian twists, burpees. I would enter that, and I'd enter how long I wanted one station to last. Then I'd run the workout. Check it out.

  PowerSaver.py

  I know I shouldn't, but I keep my laptop plugged in constantly. That isn't good for it at all. So, I wrote a script to tell me how long I had kept my battery charged for in a system tray icon, and when unplugged, notify me when my battery level was between 15 and 90 percent. The system tray part still needs some working on, and the fix is pretty simple, I just need to do it. Here's what I got so far.

  notes:
  • The image for the system tray icon is from windows itself.

  Speedinfo

  This is a script I'm working on that will use
  speedtest.net to check the speed of the network you are connected to and show the results in your system tray. It runs quietly in the background, updating your system tray icon to reflect each new test it runs. Currently, this script suffers from one major flaw, it doesn't run more than once. But, for the one time it does run successfully, it does great. Check it out

  Notes:
  • The image for the system tray icon comes from windows itself.
  • Relies on
    Pystray for displaying system tray icons and "speedtest" (pip install speedtest) for testing networks.
