Sagebox Procedural GUI for Python

Sagebox - A High-Performance, Procedural GUI Designed for Rapid, Creative Development (and Fun)

Write plain linear, procedural code with no boilerplate.

Sagebox (aka Pybox) is a GUI architecture and toolset for Python that lets you add windows, GUI controls, and graphical output using simple linear, procedural code, without any boilerplate or the overhead of an event-driven framework.

Sagebox was created to bring back the simplicity of creating fun-with-graphics programs, while providing the power and scalability to build full-scale applications with advanced GUI controls.

Features

• Procedural, linear programming style
• No macros or boilerplate
• Console-mode support with add-on GUI-Control integration
• Compatible with other GUI libraries
• Accepts all Python native types for all functions
• Designed to stay out of the way of your existing Python code

Installation

You can install the package directly with pip:

pip install sagebox

importing Sagebox

import sagebox

Dependencies

numpy (any version)

Sample "Hello World" Full-Program Example

This program creates a Hello World program using a graphic window. Creating a graphic window is not required to use Sagebox, and is just one of many features.

You can also create controls (e.g. sliders, buttons, checkboxes) with one line of code, either in a console-only program or with more graphics features such as the graphics window created in the example.

import sagebox

win = sagebox.new_window();                      # Create a default graphic window (not required)
win.write("Hello World",font=100,center=True)    # Write "Hello World" in large font, centered in window
sagebox.exit_button()                            # bring up a button in small window to press, letting the
                                                 # user know the program has ended.
