'Function Object Has No Attribute Text: Kivy and Smtplib
How is everyone doing?
I'm pretty pretty new to Kivy and I'm trying to turn this script I made into a Kivy app
import smtplib
server = smtplib.SMTP_SSL("smtp.gmail.com", 465)
username = input("What's your gmail username? ")
password = input("\nWhat's your gmail password? ")
gmail = input("What's your email? ex: [email protected]: ")
message = input("\nWhat message do you want to send?")
to = [
'[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]',
'[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]',
'[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'
'[email protected]', '[email protected]'
]
server.login(username, password)
server.sendmail(gmail, to, message)
print("Message sent :)")
server.quit()
And it's interesting because the code here works and does exactly what I want it to do but when I try to turn it into a kivy app using kinda the same formula, I keep getting errors. I know i'm doing something wrong (thus the errors) but I can't put my finger on it.
This is my Kivy code
import smtplib
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.gridlayout import GridLayout
from kivy.uix.label import Label
from kivy.uix.image import Image
from kivy.uix.button import Button
from kivy.uix.textinput import TextInput
import ssl
server = smtplib.SMTP_SSL("smtp.gmail.com", 465)
to = ['[email protected]']
class SayHello(App):
def build(self):
self.window = GridLayout()
self.window.cols = 1
self.window.size_hint = (0.6, 0.7)
self.window.pos_hint = {"center_x": 0.5, "center_y": 0.5}
self.window.add_widget(Image(source="SosTok\sostok.png",
width= 55,
size_hint_y = 2.8,
allow_stretch = True,
keep_ratio = False
))
self.username = TextInput(
multiline=False,
size_hint = (.2, None),
height = (30),
text = ("Enter Gmail username")
)
self.window.add_widget(self.username)
self.password = TextInput(
multiline=False,
size_hint = (.2, None),
height = (30),
text = ("Enter Gmail password"))
self.window.add_widget(self.password)
self.email = TextInput(
multiline=False,
size_hint = (.2, None),
height = (30),
text = ("Enter Email ex: [email protected]"))
self.window.add_widget(self.email)
self.message = TextInput(
multiline=True,
size_hint = (1, 1.5),
)
self.window.add_widget(self.message)
self.button = Button(
text="Send Message",
size_hint = (1, 0.5),
bold = True,
background_color = '#EB1160',
background_normal = ""
)
self.button.bind(on_press=self.callback)
self.window.add_widget(self.button)
return self.window
def callback(self,instance):
self.login.text = server.login.text(self.username,
self.password)
self.sendmail.text = server.sendmail.text(
self.email,
to,
self.message
)
self.messagesent.text = "Message Sent"
server.quit()
if __name__ == "__main__":
SayHello().run()
This is the error I'm getting

I took bits and pieces from some tutorials, my already working script and tried to make that and I feel like I'm close, but something is wrong. The last error I got before this was

Any help would be apricated, Kivy is a different beast.
Solution 1:[1]
I believe the problem is that you are passing TextInput widgets to the server.login() method in the code:
self.login = server.login(self.username,
self.password)
You should be passing text strings. Probably like this:
self.login = server.login(self.username.text, self.password.text)
Where self.username.text is the text that has been entered into the self.username TextInput widget. Similar for the self.password widget.
