shadowlib 2.2.1

OSRS Bot Development SDK with game-native structure

ShadowLib

A Python SDK for Old School RuneScape (OSRS) bot development with an intuitive structure that mirrors the game's interface.

Features

• Game-Native Structure: Directory layout based on OSRS client interface (world, tabs, interfaces)
• Type-Safe: Full type hints for better IDE support and fewer runtime errors
• Well-Tested: Comprehensive test coverage with pytest
• Clean Code: Enforced coding standards with Ruff and custom naming convention checker
• Easy to Use: Intuitive API that matches how players think about the game

Installation

From Source

git clone https://github.com/shadowbot/shadowlib.git
cd shadowlib
pip install -e ".[dev]"

For Development

# Install with development dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"

# Install pre-commit hooks
pre-commit install

Quick Start

from shadowlib import Client

# Create and connect to the client
client = Client()
client.connect()

# Check connection status
if client.isConnected():
    print("Connected to OSRS client!")

# Your bot logic here...

# Disconnect when done
client.disconnect()

├── world/              # Game viewport entities (NPCs, objects, players, ground items)
├── tabs/               # Side panel tabs (inventory, equipment, skills, prayers)
├── interfaces/         # Overlay windows (bank, GE, shop, dialogue)
├── navigation/         # Movement systems (walking, teleports, webwalking)
├── interactions/       # Interaction systems (menu, clicking, hovering)
├── input/              # OS-level input (mouse, keyboard)

Placement Rules

1. Visible in the 3D world → world/
2. Side-panel tab → tabs/
3. Overlay window → interfaces/
4. Pathing/movement → navigation/
5. Interaction primitives → interactions/

Development

Code Style

This project uses camelCase for function names (e.g., getFoo(), doSomething()), following the convention:

# ✅ Correct
def getPlayerName():
    pass

def isInventoryFull():
    pass

# ❌ Incorrect
def get_player_name():
    pass

def is_inventory_full():
    pass

Running Tests

# Run all tests
pytest

# Run with coverage
pytest --cov=shadowlib

# Run specific test file
pytest tests/test_client.py

# Run tests matching a pattern
pytest -k "test_client"

Linting and Formatting

# Run Ruff linter
ruff check .

# Auto-fix issues
ruff check --fix .

# Format code
ruff format .

# Check naming conventions
python check_naming.py

Pre-commit Hooks

The project uses pre-commit hooks to ensure code quality:

# Install hooks
pre-commit install

# Run manually
pre-commit run --all-files

Naming Conventions

• Functions/Methods: camelCase (e.g., getItem, moveToPosition)
• Classes: PascalCase (e.g., Client, QueryBuilder)
• Constants: UPPER_CASE (e.g., MAX_HEALTH, DEFAULT_TIMEOUT)
• Private functions: _camelCase (e.g., _internalHelper)
• Dunder methods: __method__ (e.g., __init__, __repr__)

Contributing

1. Fork the repository
2. Create a feature branch (git checkout -b feature/amazing-feature)
3. Make your changes following the code style
4. Run tests and linting
5. Commit your changes (git commit -m 'Add amazing feature')

Code Quality Checklist

Before submitting a PR, ensure:

• All tests pass (pytest)
• Code follows naming conventions (python check_naming.py)
• Linting passes (ruff check .)
• Code is formatted (ruff format .)
