glglue provide boilerplate codes that glue OpenGL with some GUI. it is handling mouse event, keyboard event, window resize event and draw event.

Requirements

  • Python 2.7

Features

  • glut window

  • tkinter’s togl widget

  • wxPython’s GLCanvas widget

  • pyQt4’s qgl widget

  • win32api wgl

Controller convention

you should inherit glglue.BaseController and implement follow methods.

  • onUpdate

  • onLeftDown

  • onLeftUp

  • onMiddleDown

  • onMiddleUp

  • onRightDown

  • onRightUp

  • onMotion

  • onResize

  • onWheel

  • onKeyDown

  • draw

see SampleController in glglue/sample/__init__.py

Samples

glut

requrie pyOpenGL

import glglue.sample
import glglue.glut

if __name__=="__main__":
    controller=glglue.sample.SampleController()
    glglue.glut.mainloop(controller)

tkinter

requrie pyOpenGL + togl install

import sys
import Tkinter as tkinter
import glglue.togl
import glglue.sample
class Frame(tkinter.Frame):
    def __init__(self, width, height, master=None, **kw):
        #super(Frame, self).__init__(master, **kw)
        tkinter.Frame.__init__(self, master, **kw)
        # setup opengl widget
        self.controller=glglue.sample.SampleController()
        self.glwidget=glglue.togl.Widget(
                self, self.controller, width=width, height=height)
        self.glwidget.pack(fill=tkinter.BOTH, expand=True)
        # event binding(require focus)
        self.bind('<Key>', self.onKeyDown)
        self.bind('<MouseWheel>', lambda e: self.glworld.onWheel(-e.delta) and self.glwidget.onDraw())

    def onKeyDown(self, event):
        key=event.keycode
        if key==27:
            # Escape
            sys.exit()
        if key==81:
            # q
            sys.exit()
        else:
            print("keycode: %d" % key)

f = Frame(width=600, height=600)
f.pack(fill=tkinter.BOTH, expand=True)
f.focus_set()
f.mainloop()

wxPython

require pyOpenGL + wxPython

import wx
import glglue.sample
import glglue.wxglcanvas
class Frame(wx.Frame):
    def __init__(self, parent, **kwargs):
        super(Frame, self).__init__(parent, **kwargs)
        # setup opengl widget
        self.controller=glglue.sample.SampleController()
        self.glwidget=glglue.wxglcanvas.Widget(self, self.controller)
        # packing
        sizer=wx.BoxSizer(wx.HORIZONTAL)
        self.SetSizer(sizer)
        sizer.Add(self.glwidget, 1, wx.EXPAND)

app = wx.App(False)
frame=Frame(None, title='glglue')
frame.Show()
app.MainLoop()

pyQt4

require pyOpenGL + pyQt4

from PyQt4 import Qt
import glglue.sample
import glglue.qgl
class Window(Qt.QWidget):
    def __init__(self, parent=None):
        Qt.QWidget.__init__(self, parent)
        # setup opengl widget
        self.controller=glglue.sample.SampleController()
        self.glwidget=glglue.qgl.Widget(self, self.controller)
        # packing
        mainLayout = Qt.QHBoxLayout()
        mainLayout.addWidget(self.glwidget)
        self.setLayout(mainLayout)

import sys
app = Qt.QApplication(sys.argv)
window = Window()
window.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())

pyGame

require pyOpenGL + pyGame

import pygame
from pygame.locals import *
import glglue.sample

if __name__=="__main__":
    pygame.init()
    size=(640, 480)
    screen = pygame.display.set_mode(size,
            HWSURFACE | OPENGL | DOUBLEBUF)

    controller=glglue.sample.SampleController()
    controller.onResize(*size)

    clock = pygame.time.Clock()
    is_running=True
    while is_running:
        # event handling
        for event in pygame.event.get():
            if event.type == QUIT:
                is_running=False
            if event.type == KEYUP and event.key == K_ESCAPE:
                is_running=False
        pressed = pygame.key.get_pressed()

        time_passed = clock.tick()

        # Show the screen
        controller.draw()
        pygame.display.flip()

win32api

require pyOpenGL(experimental…)

import glglue.sample
import glglue.wgl

if __name__=="__main__":
    factory=glglue.wgl.WindowFactory()
    window=factory.create(glglue.wgl.Window, title="sample")
    window.createGLContext(16)
    window.controller=glglue.sample.SampleController()
    window.show()
    import sys
    sys.exit(factory.loop())

short smaple

import glglue.sample
import glglue.wgl

if __name__=="__main__":
    controller=glglue.sample.SampleController()
    glglue.wgl.mainloop(controller, width=640, height=480, title="sample")
