pygame-networking 0.0.1

Python networking library perfect for use with pygame!

Python networking library perfect for use with pygame!

on server-side you must create a server using the Server class

follow the example below!
be sure to replace 192.168.1.52 with a string containing the server IP and replace 8080 with an integer containing the server port

from pygame_networking import Server
server = Server()
server.serve(("192.168.1.52", 8080))

To create data that is synced across all clients, You can use the sync method

from pygame_networking import Server
server = Server()

server.sync("my_variable", "my_data")

server.serve(("192.168.1.52", 8080))

replace "my_variable" with a string containing the name you want
replace "my_data" with a string containing the data the variable is initialized with

NOTE: variable data must always be string, this module does not support any other types

On client-side you must use the connect method to establish a connection with the server

from pygame_networking import Server
server = Server()

server.connect(("192.168.1.52", 8080))

You can also use sync from client-side to declare new variables

from pygame_networking import Server
server = Server()

server.connect(("192.168.1.52", 8080))

server.sync("my_variable", "my_data")

use get and set to retrieve and modify variables

from pygame_networking import Server
server = Server()

server.connect(("192.168.1.52", 8080))

server.set("count", "1")

print(server.get("count"))
