pyglet.gl¶
OpenGL and GLU interface.
This package imports all OpenGL, GLU and registered OpenGL extension functions. Functions have identical signatures to their C counterparts. For example:
from pyglet.gl import *
# [...omitted: set up a GL context and framebuffer]
glBegin(GL_QUADS)
glVertex3f(0, 0, 0)
glVertex3f(0.1, 0.2, 0.3)
glVertex3f(0.1, 0.2, 0.3)
glEnd()
OpenGL is documented in full at the OpenGL Reference Pages.
The OpenGL Programming Guide is a popular reference manual organised by topic. The free online version documents only OpenGL 1.1. Later editions cover more recent versions of the API and can be purchased from a book store.
The following subpackages are imported into this “mega” package already (and
so are available by importing pyglet.gl
):
pyglet.gl.gl
- OpenGL
pyglet.gl.glu
- GLU
pyglet.gl.gl.glext_arb
- ARB registered OpenGL extension functions
These subpackages are also available, but are not imported into this namespace by default:
pyglet.gl.glext_nv
- nVidia OpenGL extension functions
pyglet.gl.agl
- AGL (Mac OS X OpenGL context functions)
pyglet.gl.glx
- GLX (Linux OpenGL context functions)
pyglet.gl.glxext_arb
- ARB registered GLX extension functions
pyglet.gl.glxext_nv
- nvidia GLX extension functions
pyglet.gl.wgl
- WGL (Windows OpenGL context functions)
pyglet.gl.wglext_arb
- ARB registered WGL extension functions
pyglet.gl.wglext_nv
- nvidia WGL extension functions
The information modules are provided for convenience, and are documented below.

Config
(**kwargs)¶ Graphics configuration.
A Config stores the preferences for OpenGL attributes such as the number of auxilliary buffers, size of the colour and depth buffers, double buffering, stencilling, multi- and super-sampling, and so on.
Different platforms support a different set of attributes, so these are set with a string key and a value which is integer or boolean.
Variables: - double_buffer (bool) – Specify the presence of a back-buffer for every color buffer.
- stereo (bool) – Specify the presence of separate left and right buffer sets.
- buffer_size (int) – Total bits per sample per color buffer.
- aux_buffers (int) – The number of auxilliary color buffers.
- sample_buffers (int) – The number of multisample buffers.
- samples (int) – The number of samples per pixel, or 0 if there are no multisample buffers.
- red_size (int) – Bits per sample per buffer devoted to the red component.
- green_size (int) – Bits per sample per buffer devoted to the green component.
- blue_size (int) – Bits per sample per buffer devoted to the blue component.
- alpha_size (int) – Bits per sample per buffer devoted to the alpha component.
- depth_size (int) – Bits per sample in the depth buffer.
- stencil_size (int) – Bits per sample in the stencil buffer.
- accum_red_size (int) – Bits per pixel devoted to the red component in the accumulation buffer.
- accum_green_size (int) – Bits per pixel devoted to the green component in the accumulation buffer.
- accum_blue_size (int) – Bits per pixel devoted to the blue component in the accumulation buffer.
- accum_alpha_size (int) – Bits per pixel devoted to the alpha component in the accumulation buffer.
-
create_context
(share)¶ Create a GL context that satisifies this configuration.
Warning
Deprecated. Use CanvasConfig.create_context.
Parameters: share (Context) – If not None, a context with which to share objects with. Return type: Context Returns: The new context.
-
get_gl_attributes
()¶ Return a list of attributes set on this config.
Return type: list of tuple (name, value)
Returns: All attributes, with unset attributes having a value of None
.
-
is_complete
()¶ Determine if this config is complete and able to create a context.
Configs created directly are not complete, they can only serve as templates for retrieving a supported config from the system. For example, pyglet.window.Screen.get_matching_configs returns complete configs.
Warning
Deprecated. Use
isinstance(config, CanvasConfig)
.Return type: bool Returns: True if the config is complete and can create a context.
-
match
(canvas)¶ Return a list of matching complete configs for the given canvas.
New in version 1.2.
Parameters: canvas (Canvas) – Display to host contexts created from the config. Return type: list of CanvasConfig
-
requires_gl_3
()¶

forward_compatible

class
CanvasConfig
(canvas, base_config)¶ Bases:
pyglet.gl.base.Config
OpenGL configuration for a particular canvas.
Use Config.match to obtain an instance of this class.
New in version 1.2.
Variables: canvas (Canvas) – The canvas this config is valid on. -
compatible
(canvas)¶
-
create_context
(share)¶ Create a GL context that satisifies this configuration.
Parameters: share (Context) – If not None, a context with which to share objects with. Return type: Context Returns: The new context.
-
is_complete
()¶ Determine if this config is complete and able to create a context.
Configs created directly are not complete, they can only serve as templates for retrieving a supported config from the system. For example, pyglet.window.Screen.get_matching_configs returns complete configs.
Warning
Deprecated. Use
isinstance(config, CanvasConfig)
.Return type: bool Returns: True if the config is complete and can create a context.

class
Context
(config, context_share=None)¶ OpenGL context for drawing.
Use CanvasConfig.create_context to create a context.
Variables: object_space (ObjectSpace) – An object which is shared between all contexts that share GL objects. -
attach
(canvas)¶
-
delete_buffer
(buffer_id)¶ Safely delete a buffer object belonging to this context.
This method behaves similarly to
delete_texture()
, though forglDeleteBuffers
instead ofglDeleteTextures
.Parameters: buffer_id (int) – The OpenGL name of the buffer to delete. New in version 1.1.
-
delete_texture
(texture_id)¶ Safely delete a texture belonging to this context.
Usually, the texture is released immediately using
glDeleteTextures
, however if another context that does not share this context’s object space is currently active, the deletion will be deferred until an appropriate context is activated.Parameters: texture_id (int) – The OpenGL name of the texture to delete.
-
destroy
()¶ Release the context.
The context will not be useable after being destroyed. Each platform has its own convention for releasing the context and the buffer(s) that depend on it in the correct order; this should never be called by an application.
-
detach
()¶
-
get_info
()¶ Get the OpenGL information for this context.
New in version 1.2.
Return type: GLInfo
-
set_current
()¶
-
CONTEXT_SHARE_EXISTING
= 1¶ Context share behaviour indicating that objects are shared with the most recently created context (the default).
-
CONTEXT_SHARE_NONE
= None¶ Context share behaviour indicating that objects should not be shared with existing contexts.
-
