I have a plugin which let one call/email people (based on Outlook or VCF export). When I type CALL SOLER I get the options below:

As can be seen, I have multiple call options which are to different numbers but becasue they are all the same action, their description is also the same, e.g.. "Call the mobile number".

I am looking for a way to have the option to customize the action label when it is displayed, like:

I assume that this can be implemented with an optional method the plugin would implement that would get the targe, bag and action and would return an alternate string or None to keep the default.

For convenience, kptmpl package should create a .gitignore that ignores the /build/ directory.

Hello. This is not a bug report, just asking for help. Hope that is ok.

I would like to make some plugin for personal use but I have zero experience with python and having problems to set up SDK.

1. Executing cmd/kpenv does not create KEYPIRINHA_SDK in user or system variables.

2. Where are modules to import? To get auto completion etc in skeleton created via kptmpl

3. How to add interpreter to IDE? Readme mentions some script. I tried to add VSCodeProjects\SDK-master\bin\python\x64\python.exe to Visual Studio Code (I know it is not IDE) but error happens:

Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: unable to load the file system codec
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'
Current thread 0x000032b8 (most recent call first)

Thanks to any help

EDIT: Found answers to all questions

Just as minor idea for improving the default directory name created at

How about converting CamelCase to dash-separations, so that

kptmpl package FooBar

would create a directory "keypirinha-foo-bar" instead of "keypirinha-foobar"? That could be done with a Regex replacement similar to this Kotlin code that I wrote.

I recently started building a package for Keypirinha, and after cloning and configuring the SDK, I noticed that it does not support pip for installing external python modules, and after looking at some other package repositories, it seems that copying and pasting the module into the project folder is the only way to do this for now. I think something like virtualenv will be quite helpful in developing the packages using external modules.

I was wondering if the SDK will get an update to match the python distribution in the current version of keypirinha.

I think since KP 2.25 it is Python 3.7.4 but this repository still has python 3.6.3.

Currently, "make build" does not actually build anything but blindly packages the files. IMO it should ensure that the plugin actually compiles by really building the plugin for testing, or at least perform some kind of syntax check.
