scorbit-py2 2.0.2

Python 2.7 wrapper for the Scorbit SDK (pinball scoring platform)

Scorbit SDK - Python 2.7

Pure-Python wrapper for the Scorbit SDK C library for Python 2.7. Uses ctypes against the stable C ABI; no compilation.

For Python 3.6+, use wrappers/python.

Native SDK required

pip install scorbit-py2 installs only the Python wrapper. Install the native shared library for the same version from GitHub releases. If the library is missing, import scorbit reports a version-matched release URL and suggested filenames.

Prerequisites

Requirement	Details
Python	2.7.x
enum34	Pulled in by pip (install_requires)
SDK shared library	Install separately (below)

Load order for the shared library:

1. SCORBIT_SDK_PATH
2. /opt/scorbit/lib when using official Linux packages
3. Normal paths (LD_LIBRARY_PATH, DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, /usr/local/lib, etc.)

Platform	Library file
Linux	libscorbit_sdk.so
macOS	libscorbit_sdk.dylib
Windows	scorbit_sdk.dll

Installation

pip install scorbit-py2

Then install the native SDK from the matching GitHub release.

From this repository:

cd wrappers/python27
pip install .

Building a wheel from the SDK repo

make python27 runs scripts/python27-build.sh. By default it uses the python-builder image (dilshodm/python-builder:<tag> from DOCKER_RELEASE; built from the gcc-builder repo), via docker_build_wheel in scripts/_common.sh. Set SCORBIT_PYTHON_NO_DOCKER=1 to build on the host (or current container).

Setting the library path

# Linux / macOS
export SCORBIT_SDK_PATH=/opt/scorbit/lib

# Windows (PowerShell)
$env:SCORBIT_SDK_PATH = "C:\scorbit\lib"

Quick start

Set set_event_callback (and optional key callbacks) on Config before create_game_state. Use a with block or call gs.destroy() when done (see examples/python27_example/main.py).

from __future__ import absolute_import, print_function

import os
import scorbit

config = scorbit.Config()
config.set_provider("myprovider")
config.set_machine_id(4419)
config.set_game_code_version("1.0.0")
config.set_encrypted_key("<your-encrypted-key>")

def on_event(event):
    if event.type == scorbit.EventType.GameStartRequested:
        players = event.get_game_start_requested()
        print("Game start requested with %d player(s)" % players)

    elif event.type == scorbit.EventType.PlayersUpdated:
        players = event.get_players_updated()
        for num, info in players.items():
            print("  Player %d: %s" % (num, info.preferred_name))

config.set_event_callback(on_event)

def _save_key(key):
    open("device_key.json", "w").write(key)

def _load_key():
    return open("device_key.json").read() if os.path.exists("device_key.json") else ""

config.set_save_key_callback(_save_key)
config.set_load_key_callback(_load_key)

with scorbit.create_game_state(config) as gs:
    gs.set_capabilities(scorbit.Capability.StartGame | scorbit.Capability.CreditDrop)

    gs.set_game_started(scorbit.GameStartOrigin.StartButton)
    gs.set_score(1, 42000, feature=2)
    gs.set_current_ball(1)
    gs.add_mode("MB:Multiball")
    gs.commit()

    gs.set_game_finished()

Config

Setters return self for chaining.

GameState

From scorbit.create_game_state(config). Supports with / __exit__.

Method / property	Description
set_game_started(origin)	Start a session.
set_game_finished()	End session (auto-commits).
set_current_ball(ball)	Ball 1-9.

remove_mode(mode)	Remove mode.
clear_modes()	Clear all modes.
commit()	Push updates to the cloud.

initials	Initials
picture_url	Picture URL
claim_deeplink	Claim URL (empty slots)
has_info()	Whether the slot is claimed

Logger

If logger callback is registered it will receive log lines from SDK. The level argument is a LogLevel member (compare to scorbit.LogLevel.Info, etc.).

def my_logger(message, level, file, line, timestamp):
    print("[%s] %s" % (level.name, message))

scorbit.add_logger_callback(my_logger, max_length=512)
scorbit.reset_logger()

Threading

Same behavior as the Python 3 wrapper: C calls release the GIL; callbacks acquire it; use locks for shared state from callbacks; atexit silences trampolines during shutdown.

Compared to the Python 3 wrapper

Python 3	Python 2.7
enum.IntFlag for Capability	Plain class with integer constants
requires-python >= 3.6	python_requires 2.7 (not 3.x)
No extra deps	enum34
PyPI scorbit, wheel py3-none-any	PyPI scorbit-py2, wheel py2-none-any

Import name is scorbit for both; only the pip package name differs.
