Quick Start

import pygameplus as pgp

# Create a window with networking
key = pgp.Key(b'I\xebi\xc3U\xa47\x85I%I@9\xf9b\ry\x807Fq\x1aj\x15585\xf8P\xc45\xb7H\xccg\x0fs\x92s\xd70\xd2o\x9fw\x83J/lt-\x03R\xb1Q^H\xf1O\xadQ 0\xe1') # Leave empty to generate a new
fernet_key, hmac_key = key.extract()
conn = pgp.Connection(fernet_key, hmac_key, "localhost", 8000, pgp.secure_network.CLIENT)

# Initialize window
window = pgp.Window("My App", conn, on_render=lambda: None)

# Create a button
button = pgp.Button(
    text="Click Me!",
    box=pgp.Box(100, 100, 200, 50),
    color=pgp.ColorData.create_light_theme(),
    font=pgp.FontSet().load_system_font("Arial", (12, 16, 24)),
    border_radius=5,
    border_width=2,
    switch=False,
    callback=lambda: print("Button clicked!")
)

# Create an input box
input_box = pgp.InputBox(
    text="Enter text...",
    box=pgp.Box(100, 200, 200, 50),
    color=pgp.ColorData.create_light_theme(),
    font=pgp.FontSet().load_system_font("Arial", (12, 16, 24)),
    border_radius=5,
    border_width=2
)

# Create a scene
scene = pgp.Scene([button, input_box])

# Set up render function
def render():
    window.screen.fill((255, 255, 255))
    scene.draw()

window.on_render.append(render)

# Start the application
# Use "window.connect()" whenever you want to connect using the connection
# Remember to set the address correctly first
# Also remember to then auth with a username and a correlating password
window.run()

Networking

The library integrates with the secure_network package for encrypted communication:

key = pgp.Key()
fernet_key, hmac_key = key.extract()
conn = pgp.Connection(
    fernet_key,
    hmac_key,
    "localhost",
    8000,
    pgp.secure_network.CLIENT
)

# Send data
