cairocffi-stubs

This package contains type stubs to provide more precise static types and type inference for cairocffi.

Installation

pip install cairocffi-stubs

Usage

from io import BytesIO
import cairocffi as cairo
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

surface = cairo.ImageSurface(cairo.FORMAT_ARGB32, 300, 200)
context = cairo.Context(surface)
context.show_text('Hello World!')
img = BytesIO(surface.write_to_png())  # overloaded
plt.imshow(plt.imread(img))
plt.show()

Static type checker can correctly recognize the return type of surface.write_to_png() as bytes when passing no arguments. No type errors will be raised.

Style Guidelines

Follow the same style guidelines as typeshed.
