pyD2D - A Python wrapper for the Windows Direct2D API

pyD2D is a Python wrapper for the Windows Direct2D and DirectWrite APIs.

Note: Not all of the Direct2D and DirectWrite APIs are wrapped, but the most commonly used ones are. If you need a specific API that is not wrapped, feel free to open an issue or submit a pull request.

Installation

pip install pyd2d

Usage

See the demo app for a working example app using pyD2D and ctypes.

Basic usage is as below:

import pyd2d

# Initialize COM
pyd2d.InitializeCOM()

# Create a Direct2D factory
factory = pyd2d.GetD2DFactory()

# Create a render target
render_target = factory.CreateHwndRenderTarget(
    my_hwnd, width=800, height=600,
)

# Draw a rectangle
render_target.BeginDraw()
render_target.Clear(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
render_target.FillRectangle(
    100, 100, 200, 200,
    render_target.CreateSolidColorBrush(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0),
)
render_target.EndDraw()

# Release resources
render_target.Release()
factory.Release()
pyd2d.UninitializeCOM()
