'super' object has no attribute '__getattr__' in kivymd


I wrote a kiwi app that has two pages. The first page contains only one button to go to the next page. The second page is a list of icons and titles. It worked well when the app had a page, but I get an error adding the first page as a menu. How can I solve it? The error is for line 51 that I specified. Error: 'super' object has no attribute '__getattr__'

Test().run()

Solution

  • You are trying to access the text_container id in the App, but that id is in the CoinScreen, not in the App. You can adjust the on_start() method to access the CoinScreen, like this:

    class Test(MDApp):
        def build(self):
            return Builder.load_string(KV)
    
        def on_start(self):
            icon_path = glob.glob("icon/*.png")
            for _ in range(len(icon_path)):
                icon_path[_] = icon_path[_].replace("\\", "//")
    
            coin_screen = MDApp.get_running_app().root.get_screen('select_coin')
            for i in icon_path:
                icons = ImageLeftWidget(source=i)
                items = TwoLineAvatarListItem(text=i + ' item', secondary_text="Secondary text here")
                items.add_widget(icons)
                coin_screen.ids.text_container.add_widget(items)
