Skype4Py API

[gminor7]

I've been working with the skype4py API and got a few scripts working on my mac. I'm new to python so excuse my questions if they seem ridiculous. I installed the API on my mac and tried calling the module from within a boxee app and I'm not getting anything. I'm not able to attach to skype. Does boxee run its own instance of python? If so how can I install the API or do I need to put the support files somewhere specific?

In case you haven't figured it out, I'm trying to build a skype app for boxee. I have the shell built and most of the python scripts working independently, I just need to put it all together within the app itself.

Thanks!

Boxee runs its own instance of python at version 2.4, which should be fine because Skype4Py works at the bottom cut off of 2.4.

For testing purposes or even in your final app iteration, you might just try bundling Skype4Py w/ your app to save the user the frustration of having to download and install that separately of getting your app to work.

to further explain, when you do an import in Boxee it will always look in the default folder in your app directory (the one with the descriptor in it).
drop your files in there and import.

Awesome thanks for the info.
