Oogli is Beautiful

Object Oriented Graphics Library Interface written in Python

Motivation:

I was dissatisfied with difficulty in producing easy to read and understand OpenGL code. This small library helps eliminate some of the boilerplate inherent within OpenGL’s API. Oogli greatly simplifies the interface while still providing access to the underlying GLFW3 and OpenGL API.

License:

This package is released as Apache 2.0 license.

However, at your option, you may apply any OSI approved free software license you choose provided that you adhere to the free software license chosen and additionally follow these criteria:

1. list the author’s name of this software as a contributor to your final product

2. provide credit to your end user of your product or software without your end user asking for where you obtained your software

3. notify the author of this software that you are using this software

4. If you believe there can be some benefit in providing your changes upstream, you’ll submit a change request. While this criteria is completely optional, please consider not being a dick.

Installation:

Oogli was designed with GLFW-CFFI in mind and uses the API provided by GLFW-CFFI. In addition, Oogli uses numpy.

Usage:

import oogli

v_shader = '''
    #version 410
    in vec2 vertices;
    void main () {
        gl_Position = vec4(vertices, 0.0, 1.0);
    }
'''

f_shader = '''
    #version 410
    out vec4 frag_color;
    void main () {
        frag_colour = vec4(0.3, 1.0, 0.3, 1.0);
    }
'''

# Create a program from the shaders
#  Note: This will auto request an OpenGL context of 4.1
program = oogli.Program(v_shader, f_shader)

# Vertices for a 2D Triangle
triangle = [(0.0, 0.5), (-0.5, 0.5), (-0.5, -0.5)]

with oogli.Window('Oogli', 640, 480) as win:
    # Main Loop
    while win.should_run()
        # Render triangle
        program.draw(vertices=triangle)
