glglue is the glue code which mediates between OpenGL and some GUI

Requirements
============
* Python 2.7
* Python 3.2

Features
========
* glut window
* tkinter's togl widget
* wxPython's GLCanvas widget(wxPython for python3 is not exist)
* pyQt4's qgl widget
* win32api wgl

Site
====
* http://pypi.python.org/pypi/glglue/
* https://github.com/ousttrue/glglue

Controller convention
=====================
You should implement Controller class that has follow methods.

* onUpdate
* onLeftDown
* onLeftUp
* onMiddleDown
* onMiddleUp
* onRightDown
* onRightUp
* onMotion
* onResize
* onWheel
* onKeyDown
* draw

example

::

# coding: utf-8
from OpenGL.GL import *


class Controller(object):
def __init__(self):
pass

def onResize(self, w, h):
glViewport(0, 0, w, h)

def onLeftDown(self, x, y):
print 'onLeftDown', x, y

def onLeftUp(self, x, y):
print 'onLeftUp', x, y

def onMiddleDown(self, x, y):
print 'onMiddleDown', x, y

def onMiddleUp(self, x, y):
print 'onMiddleUp', x, y

def onRightDown(self, x, y):
print 'onRightDown', x, y

def onRightUp(self, x, y):
print 'onRightUp', x, y

def onMotion(self, x, y):
print 'onMotion', x, y

def onWheel(self, d):
print 'onWheel', d

def onKeyDown(self, keycode):
print 'onKeyDown', keycode

def onUpdate(self, d):
print 'onUpdate', d

def draw(self):
glClearColor(0.9, 0.5, 0.0, 0.0)
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT)

glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES)
glVertex(-1.0,-1.0)
glVertex( 1.0,-1.0)
glVertex( 0.0, 1.0)
glEnd()

glFlush()


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


Samples
=======

def __init__(self, parent, **kwargs):
super(Frame, self).__init__(parent, **kwargs)
# setup opengl widget

self.glwidget=glglue.wxglcanvas.Widget(self, self.controller)
# packing
sizer=wx.BoxSizer(wx.HORIZONTAL)
self.SetSizer(sizer)
sizer.Add(self.glwidget, 1, wx.EXPAND)

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 + pywin32(win32con)

pywin32(win32con) install on Windows
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1) download pywin32-*.exe from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/
2) execute installer

::

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")
