How to Create a Toast Notification in Python using KivyMD

Posted by

To create a toast notification using KivyMD in Python, you first need to have Kivy and KivyMD installed on your computer. If you haven’t installed them yet, you can do so by following the installation instructions on the Kivy and KivyMD websites.

Once you have Kivy and KivyMD installed, you can start creating your toast notification. Here’s a step-by-step tutorial on how to do it using HTML tags:

Step 1: Set up your Python environment
Create a new Python file and import the necessary modules:

from kivymd.app import MDApp
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
from kivy.uix.button import Button
from kivymd.toast import toast

Step 2: Create a new class for your application
Create a new class that inherits from MDApp and add the necessary functions:

class ToastApp(MDApp):
    def build(self):
        return Button(text='Show Toast', on_release=self.show_toast)

    def show_toast(self, instance):
        toast('This is a toast notification')

Step 3: Run your application
Add the following code to the bottom of your Python file to run your application:

if __name__ == '__main__':
    ToastApp().run()

Step 4: Customize your toast notification
You can customize your toast notification by changing the text and duration of the toast. Here’s an example of how you can do that:

toast('Customize your toast notification', duration=5)

Step 5: Add HTML tags to your toast notification
To add HTML tags to your toast notification, you can wrap the text in the toast function with the appropriate HTML tags. Here’s an example:

toast('<b>This is a bold text</b>', duration=3)

And that’s it! You now have a toast notification using KivyMD in Python with HTML tags. You can further customize your toast notification by exploring the different options available in the KivyMD documentation. Happy coding!
