raylib-python-ctypes

A python wrapper for the greatest graphic library raylib.

Prerequisites

raypyc uses type annotations in its source, so a Python version that supports it is required.

Installing

the fastest way to use raypyc is by using the pip install command:

pip install raypyc

or

python -m pip install raypyc

Using raypyc

using raypyc is really simple, take a look at an example:

"""

raylib [core] example - Basic Window

"""

from raypyc import *


# ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Program main entry point
# ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def main():
    # Initialization
    # ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    SCREEN_WIDTH = 800
    SCREEN_HEIGHT = 450

    init_window(SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT, b"raylib [core] example - basic window")

    # TODO: Load resources / Initialize variables at this point

    set_target_fps(60)  # Set our game to run at 60 frames-per-second
    # ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    # Main game loop
    while not window_should_close():  # Detect window close button or ESC key
        # Update
        # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        # TODO: Update variables / Implement example logic at this point
        # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        # Draw
        # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        begin_drawing()

        clear_background(RAYWHITE)
        draw_text(b"Congrats! You created your first window!", 190, 200, 20, LIGHTGRAY)

        end_drawing()
        # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    # De-Initialization
    # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    # TODO: Unload all loaded resources at this point

    close_window()  # Close window and OpenGL context
    # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


# Execute the main function
if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

raylib vs raypyc

Below are the differences in usage between raylib and raypyc.

Enums

All C typeof enums got translated to Python 'constants'. Enums got translated to Python enums.

Structures

In general, all structures inherit from ctypes.Structure class. At the moment, all the structures have a setters & getter

Contributing

firstly, Contributions of any kind welcome!.

secondly, here are some of the things that contributing on will help this wrapper the most:

porting examples from c to python(if you can, please follow along with the conventions when porting). ( C examples, Python examples)
fixing(refactoring) my fileGeneration, so it will look neater...
making the wrapper able to port to more operating systems
wrapping more c raylib header to this library[^2]

[^2] NOTE: at least for now, all the non-functions wrapper stuff need be implemented in the filesGeneration.py file, and all the functions wrapper stuff need be implemented in the raypyc/__ init__.py

thanks

thanks to raysun5, pyraylib and pyray for their good work, I took all the inspiration (and some code ;) ) from them, so thanks you guys very much. also a big thanks for the people that helped to test and reviewing the library :)!!!

also a special thanks to Peter0x44, Its-Kenta, sol-vin, pmp-p and stucotso.
