How do you verify/check kivy version?

Question

This doesn't work:

$ kivy --version
Python 2.7.6

I've got Kivy.app installed, and it doesn't provide any version info either.

Answer 1

Here's the logger output that shows the kivy version:

$ kivy my_kivy_prog.py 

[INFO   ] [Logger      ] Record log in /Applications/Kivy.app/Contents/Resources/.kivy/logs/kivy_15-12-20_0.txt

You can see both the kivy version and the python version in there.

Answer 2

The version is printed in kivy's default logger output, or you can get it in python with import kivy; print(kivy.__version__).

Answer 3

I know it is late, but you can do $ kivy and import kivy. Then you can see the version [INFO ][Kivy]v1.9.1-dev0 in the output.
