pystray on MacOS to use run_detached, program crashed - macos

Question

I am trying to use pystray to create a icon on tasktray, it is working on windows but now I am building one for Mac. I need the program minimize to tasktray on run on background. so I need to use icon.run_detached() instead of icon.run().
However, it keep crashing the app and I read the documents seems that I need to give some darwin_nsapplication = AppKit.NSApplication.sharedApplication() to the code but I really don't know how to implement this. here is my code.
import tkinter as tk
import time
import pystray
from tkinter import *
from tkinter import messagebox
from PIL import Image
import AppKit
`class Gui():
def __init__(self):
self.window = tk.Tk()
self.darwin_nsapplication = AppKit.NSApplication.sharedApplication()
self.image = Image.open("./images/noname.png")
self.menu = (
pystray.MenuItem('Show', self.show_window),
pystray.MenuItem('Quit', self.quit_window)
)
# Declaration of variables
self.hour=StringVar()
self.minute=StringVar()
self.second=StringVar()
# setting the default value as 0
self.hour.set("00")
self.minute.set("00")
self.second.set("00")
# Use of Entry class to take input from the user
hourEntry= Entry(self.window, width=3, font=("Arial",18,""),
textvariable=self.hour)
hourEntry.place(x=80,y=20)
minuteEntry= Entry(self.window, width=3, font=("Arial",18,""),
textvariable=self.minute)
minuteEntry.place(x=130,y=20)
secondEntry= Entry(self.window, width=3, font=("Arial",18,""),
textvariable=self.second)
secondEntry.place(x=180,y=20)
# button widget
btn = Button(self.window, text='Set Time Countdown', bd='5',
command= self.submit)
btn.place(x = 70,y = 120)
def submit(self):
try:
# the input provided by the user is
# stored in here :temp
temp = int(self.hour.get())*3600 + int(self.minute.get())*60 + int(self.second.get())
except:
print("Please input the right value")
while temp >-1:
# divmod(firstvalue = temp//60, secondvalue = temp%60)
mins,secs = divmod(temp,60)
# Converting the input entered in mins or secs to hours,
# mins ,secs(input = 110 min --> 120*60 = 6600 => 1hr :
# 50min: 0sec)
hours=0
if mins >60:
# divmod(firstvalue = temp//60, secondvalue
# = temp%60)
hours, mins = divmod(mins, 60)
# using format () method to store the value up to
# two decimal places
self.hour.set("{0:2d}".format(hours))
self.minute.set("{0:2d}".format(mins))
self.second.set("{0:2d}".format(secs))
# updating the GUI window after decrementing the
# temp value every time
self.window.update()
time.sleep(1)
# when temp value = 0; then a messagebox pop's up
# with a message:"Time's up"
if (temp == 0):
messagebox.showinfo("Time Countdown", "Time's up ")
# after every one sec the value of temp will be decremented
# by one
temp -= 1
def quit_window(self):
self.icon.stop()
self.window.destroy()
def show_window(self):
self.icon.stop()
self.window.protocol('WM_DELETE_WINDOW', self.withdraw_window)
self.window.after(0, self.window.deiconify)
def withdraw_window(self):
self.window.withdraw()
self.icon = pystray.Icon("name", self.image, "title", self.menu)
self.icon.run_detached()
if __name__ in '__main__':
app = Gui()
app.window.protocol('WM_DELETE_WINDOW', app.withdraw_window)
app.window.mainloop()`
I tried to add darwin_nsapplication to icon like self.icon = pystray.Icon("name", self.image, "title", self.menu,self.darwin_nsapplication)
But it is said 6 arguments are given, 2-5 are needed.
