Unfortunately pyrebase needs pycryptodome, which needs a recipe in order to build.

Writing a recipe for pycryptodome may be trivial and will need a lot of patching, as it dynamically loads shared libraries via load_pycryptodome_raw_lib.

Hi @misl6, any update on this issue?

[pakal]

If I understand correctly, kivy-ios "hacks" the production of .so/.pyd files (they are empty at the end), and generates .a files that can be compiled statically in Xcode, instead.

I don't know anything about this part, would the same hack be usable on pycryptodome?

Then the next part, I guess, would be to patch the cryptodome function below so that it opens "self" (the current process) instead of a separate .so/.pyd.

    def load_lib(name, cdecl):
        """Load a shared library and return a handle to it.

        @name,  either an absolute path or the name of a library
                in the system search path.

        @cdecl, the C function declarations.
        """

        if hasattr(ffi, "RTLD_DEEPBIND") and not os.getenv('PYCRYPTODOME_DISABLE_DEEPBIND'):
            lib = ffi.dlopen(name, ffi.RTLD_DEEPBIND)
        else:
            lib = ffi.dlopen(name)
        ffi.cdef(cdecl)
        return lib

Hello people. Any progress on that? I would love to contribute to it, but need some assistance with building a recipe.

Is there a simple way to build pycryptodome itself with iOS (both simulator and real device) support without using kivy-ios toolchain at all?

~/tmp/pycryptodome$ python3 setup.py --platforms
Posix; MacOS X; Windows

Is it possible somehow to compile pycryptodome directly by setting proper compiler environment flags?
