pyglet.image¶

Submodules

Details

Image load, capture and high-level texture functions.

Only basic functionality is described here; for full reference see the accompanying documentation.

To load an image:

from pyglet import image
pic = image.load('picture.png')

The supported image file types include PNG, BMP, GIF, JPG, and many more, somewhat depending on the operating system. To load an image from a file-like object instead of a filename:

pic = image.load('hint.jpg', file=fileobj)

The hint helps the module locate an appropriate decoder to use based on the file extension. It is optional.

Once loaded, images can be used directly by most other modules of pyglet. All images have a width and height you can access:

width, height = pic.width, pic.height

You can extract a region of an image (this keeps the original image intact; the memory is shared efficiently):

subimage = pic.get_region(x, y, width, height)

Remember that y-coordinates are always increasing upwards.

Drawing images¶

To draw an image at some point on the screen:

pic.blit(x, y, z)

This assumes an appropriate view transform and projection have been applied.

Some images have an intrinsic “anchor point”: this is the point which will be aligned to the x and y coordinates when the image is drawn. By default the anchor point is the lower-left corner of the image. You can use the anchor point to center an image at a given point, for example:

pic.anchor_x = pic.width // 2
pic.anchor_y = pic.height // 2
pic.blit(x, y, z)

Texture access¶

If you are using OpenGL directly, you can access the image as a texture:

texture = pic.get_texture()

(This is the most efficient way to obtain a texture; some images are immediately loaded as textures, whereas others go through an intermediate form). To use a texture with pyglet.gl:

from pyglet.gl import *
glEnable(texture.target)        # typically target is GL_TEXTURE_2D
glBindTexture(texture.target, texture.id)
# ... draw with the texture

Pixel access¶

To access raw pixel data of an image:

rawimage = pic.get_image_data()

(If the image has just been loaded this will be a very quick operation; however if the image is a texture a relatively expensive readback operation will occur). The pixels can be accessed as a string:

format = 'RGBA'
pitch = rawimage.width * len(format)
pixels = rawimage.get_data(format, pitch)

“format” strings consist of characters that give the byte order of each color component. For example, if rawimage.format is ‘RGBA’, there are four color components: red, green, blue and alpha, in that order. Other common format strings are ‘RGB’, ‘LA’ (luminance, alpha) and ‘I’ (intensity).

The “pitch” of an image is the number of bytes in a row (this may validly be more than the number required to make up the width of the image, it is common to see this for word alignment). If “pitch” is negative the rows of the image are ordered from top to bottom, otherwise they are ordered from bottom to top.

Retrieving data with the format and pitch given in ImageData.format and ImageData.pitch avoids the need for data conversion (assuming you can make use of the data in this arbitrary format).

Classes¶

Images¶

class AbstractImage(width, height)¶

Abstract class representing an image.

Parameters:	width (int) – Width of image height (int) – Height of image anchor_x (int) – X coordinate of anchor, relative to left edge of image data anchor_y (int) – Y coordinate of anchor, relative to bottom edge of image data

blit(x, y, z=0)¶

Draw this image to the active framebuffers.

The image will be drawn with the lower-left corner at (x - anchor_x, y - anchor_y, z).

blit_into(source, x, y, z)¶

Draw source on this image.

source will be copied into this image such that its anchor point is aligned with the x and y parameters. If this image is a 3D texture, the z coordinate gives the image slice to copy into.

Note that if source is larger than this image (or the positioning would cause the copy to go out of bounds) then you must pass a region of source to this method, typically using get_region().

blit_to_texture(target, level, x, y, z=0)¶

Draw this image on the currently bound texture at target.

This image is copied into the texture such that this image’s anchor point is aligned with the given x and y coordinates of the destination texture. If the currently bound texture is a 3D texture, the z coordinate gives the image slice to blit into.

If the rectangle parameter is True, this restriction is ignored and a texture the size of the image may be created if the driver supports the GL_ARB_texture_rectangle or GL_NV_texture_rectangle extensions. If the extensions are not present, the image already is a texture, or the image has power 2 dimensions, the rectangle parameter is ignored.

Examine Texture.target to determine if the returned texture is a rectangle (GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB or GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_NV) or not (GL_TEXTURE_2D).

If the force_rectangle parameter is True, one of these extensions must be present, and the returned texture always has target GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB or GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_NV.

A texture containing a regular grid of texture regions.

To construct, create an ImageGrid first:

image_grid = ImageGrid(...)
texture_grid = TextureGrid(image_grid)

The texture grid can be accessed as a single texture, or as a sequence of TextureRegion. When accessing as a sequence, you can specify integer indexes, in which the images are arranged in rows from the bottom-left to the top-right:

# assume the texture_grid is 3x3:
current_texture = texture_grid[3] # get the middle-left image

You can also specify tuples in the sequence methods, which are addressed as row, column:

# equivalent to the previous example:
current_texture = texture_grid[1, 0]

When using tuples in a slice, the returned sequence is over the rectangular region defined by the slice:

# returns center, center-right, center-top, top-right images in that
# order:
images = texture_grid[(1,1):]
# equivalent to
images = texture_grid[(1,1):(3,3)]

If the extensions are not present, the image already is a texture, or the image has power 2 dimensions, the rectangle parameter is ignored.

Examine Texture.target to determine if the returned texture is a rectangle (GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB or GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_NV) or not (GL_TEXTURE_2D).

If the force_rectangle parameter is True, one of these extensions must be present, and the returned texture always has target GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB or GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_NV.

Changes to the returned instance may or may not be reflected in this image.

Parameters:	rectangle (bool) – True if the texture can be created as a rectangle. force_rectangle (bool) – True if the texture must be created as a rectangle. .. versionadded:: 1.1.4.
Return type:	`Texture`

New in version 1.1.

set_mipmap_data(level, data)¶

Set data for a mipmap level.

Supplied data gives a compressed image for the given mipmap level. The image must be of the correct dimensions for the level (i.e., width >> level, height >> level); but this is not checked. If any mipmap levels are specified, they are used; otherwise, mipmaps for mipmapped_texture are generated automatically.

Parameters:	level (int) – Level of mipmap image to set. data (sequence) – String or array/list of bytes giving compressed image data. Data must be in same format as specified in constructor.

class ImageDataRegion(x, y, width, height, image_data)¶

Bases: pyglet.image.ImageData

get_data(fmt=None, pitch=None)¶

Get the byte data of the image.

Parameters:	fmt (str) – Format string of the return data. pitch (int) – Number of bytes per row. Negative values indicate a top-to-bottom arrangement.

New in version 1.1.

Return type:	sequence of bytes, or str

get_region(x, y, width, height)¶

Retrieve a rectangular region of this image data.

Parameters:	x (int) – Left edge of region. y (int) – Bottom edge of region. width (int) – Width of region. height (int) – Height of region.
Return type:	ImageDataRegion

set_data(fmt, pitch, data)¶

Set the byte data of the image.

Parameters:	fmt (str) – Format string of the return data. pitch (int) – Number of bytes per row. Negative values indicate a top-to-bottom arrangement. data (str or sequence of bytes) – Image data.

New in version 1.1.

Other Classes¶

class BufferManager¶

Manages the set of framebuffers for a context.

Use get_buffer_manager() to obtain the instance of this class for the current context.

get_aux_buffer()¶

Get a free auxiliary buffer.

If not aux buffers are available, ImageException is raised. Buffers are released when they are garbage collected.

Return type:	`ColorBufferImage`

get_buffer_mask()¶

Get a free bitmask buffer.

A bitmask buffer is a buffer referencing a single bit in the stencil buffer. If no bits are free, ImageException is raised. Bits are released when the bitmask buffer is garbage collected.

Return type:	`BufferImageMask`

get_color_buffer()¶

Get the color buffer.

Return type:	`ColorBufferImage`

get_depth_buffer()¶

Get the depth buffer.

Return type:	`DepthBufferImage`

get_viewport()¶

Get the current OpenGL viewport dimensions.

Return type:	4-tuple of float.
Returns:	Left, top, right and bottom dimensions.

class ImageGrid(image, rows, columns, item_width=None, item_height=None, row_padding=0, column_padding=0)¶

Bases: pyglet.image.AbstractImage, pyglet.image.AbstractImageSequence

An imaginary grid placed over an image allowing easy access to regular regions of that image.

The grid can be accessed either as a complete image, or as a sequence of images. The most useful applications are to access the grid as a TextureGrid:

image_grid = ImageGrid(...)
texture_grid = image_grid.get_texture_sequence()

or as a Texture3D:

image_grid = ImageGrid(...)
texture_3d = Texture3D.create_for_image_grid(image_grid)

get_image_data()¶

Get an ImageData view of this image.

Changes to the returned instance may or may not be reflected in this image.

Return type:	`ImageData`

New in version 1.1.

get_texture(rectangle=False, force_rectangle=False)¶

A Texture view of this image.

By default, textures are created with dimensions that are powers of two. Smaller images will return a TextureRegion that covers just the image portion of the larger texture. This restriction is required on older video cards, and for compressed textures, or where texture repeat modes will be used, or where mipmapping is desired.

If the rectangle parameter is True, this restriction is ignored and a texture the size of the image may be created if the driver supports the GL_ARB_texture_rectangle or GL_NV_texture_rectangle extensions. If the extensions are not present, the image already is a texture, or the image has power 2 dimensions, the rectangle parameter is ignored.

Examine Texture.target to determine if the returned texture is a rectangle (GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB or GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_NV) or not (GL_TEXTURE_2D).

If the force_rectangle parameter is True, one of these extensions must be present, and the returned texture always has target GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB or GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_NV.

Changes to the returned instance may or may not be reflected in this image.

Parameters:	rectangle (bool) – True if the texture can be created as a rectangle. force_rectangle (bool) – True if the texture must be created as a rectangle. .. versionadded:: 1.1.4.
Return type:	`Texture`

New in version 1.1.

get_texture_sequence()¶

Get a TextureSequence.

Return type:	TextureSequence

New in version 1.1.

Functions¶

create(width, height, pattern=None)¶

Create an image optionally filled with the given pattern.

Note:	You can make no assumptions about the return type; usually it will be ImageData or CompressedImageData, but patterns are free to return any subclass of AbstractImage.
Parameters:	width (int) – Width of image to create height (int) – Height of image to create pattern (ImagePattern or None) – Pattern to fill image with. If unspecified, the image will initially be transparent.
Return type:	AbstractImage

get_buffer_manager()¶

Get the buffer manager for the current OpenGL context.

Return type:	`BufferManager`

load(filename, file=None, decoder=None)¶

Load an image from a file.

Note:	You can make no assumptions about the return type; usually it will be ImageData or CompressedImageData, but decoders are free to return any subclass of AbstractImage.
Parameters:	filename (str) – Used to guess the image format, and to load the file if file is unspecified. file (file-like object or None) – Source of image data in any supported format. decoder (ImageDecoder or None) – If unspecified, all decoders that are registered for the filename extension are tried. If none succeed, the exception from the first decoder is raised.
Return type:	AbstractImage

load_animation(filename, file=None, decoder=None)¶

Load an animation from a file.

Currently, the only supported format is GIF.

Parameters:	filename (str) – Used to guess the animation format, and to load the file if file is unspecified. file (file-like object or None) – File object containing the animation stream. decoder (ImageDecoder or None) – If unspecified, all decoders that are registered for the filename extension are tried.
