Building from source
-Have Pip build from source
-Useful if the binaries don’t work on your system.
-Make sure Raylib is installed and then:
-pip3 install --no-binary raylib --upgrade --force-reinstall raylib
-Build from source manually
-Useful if the Pip build doesn’t work and you want to debug it, or you want to contribute to the -project.
-Attention
-If the Pip build doesn’t work, please submit a bug. (And if you have -fixed it, a PR.)
-Manual instructions follow, but see also how we actually build the wheels -at https://github.com/electronstudio/raylib-python-cffi/blob/master/.github/workflows/build.yml
-Windows manual build
-Clone this repo including submodules so you get correct version of -Raylib.
-git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/electronstudio/raylib-python-cffi
-Open Visual C++ command shell.
-Fix the symlink that doesnt work on Windows
-cd raylib-python-cffi
-copy raylib-c\src\raylib.h raylib\raylib.h
-Build and install Raylib from the raylib-c directory.
-cd raylib-python-cffi/raylib-c
-mkdir build
-cd build
-cmake -DWITH_PIC=on -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
-msbuild raylib.sln /target:raylib /property:Configuration=Release
-copy raylib\Release\raylib.lib ..\..
-cd ..\..
-To update the dynamic libs, download the official release,
-e.g. https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/releases/download/3.7.0/raylib-3.7.0_win64_msvc16.zip
-and extract raylib.dll into dynamic/raylib.
To build a binary wheel distribution:
-rmdir /Q /S build
-pip3 install cffi
-pip3 install wheel
-python setup.py bdist_wheel
-Alternatively, if you don’t want the static binaries and just want to -use DLLs with raylib.dynamic:
-python3 setup_dynamic.py bdist_wheel
-Then install it:
-pip3 install dist\raylib-3.7.0-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl
-(Note: your wheel’s filename will probably be different than the one -here.)
-Linux manual build
-These instructions have been tested on Ubuntu 20.10 and 16.04.
-Clone this repo including submodules so you get correct version of -Raylib.
-git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/electronstudio/raylib-python-cffi
-Build and install Raylib from the raylib-c directory.
-sudo apt install cmake libasound2-dev mesa-common-dev libx11-dev libxrandr-dev libxi-dev xorg-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev
-cd raylib-python-cffi/raylib-c
-mkdir build
-cd build
-cmake -DWITH_PIC=on -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
-sudo make install
-Note
-Optional: Build the Raylib shared libs, if you plan to use
-raylib_dynamic binding.
rm -rf *
-cmake -DWITH_PIC=on -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=on -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
-make
-sudo make install
-cd ../..
-Note
-Optional: Make a patched version of raylib header. (Not necessary if -you’ve already got raylib_modifed.h from repo and haven’t changed -anything.)
-cd raylib
-cp raylib.h raylib_modified.h
-patch -p0 <raylib_modified.h.patch
-cd ..
-Build
-pip3 install cffi
-rm -rf build raylib/_raylib_cffi.*
-python3 raylib/build.py
-Note
-(Optional) To update the Linux dynamic libs (names will be different on other platfroms):
-rm dynamic/raylib/*.so*
-cp -P /usr/local/lib/libraylib.so* dynamic/raylib/
-To build a binary wheel distribution:
-pip3 install wheel
-python3 setup.py bdist_wheel
-Then install it:
-pip3 install dist/raylib*.whl
-To build a complete set of libs for Python 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9:
-./raylib/build_multi.sh
-Warning
-pypi wont accept Linux packages unless they are built
---plat-name manylinux2014_x86_64 so on linux please run
-./raylib/build_multi_linux.sh )
Todo
-Separate the instructions for preparing the dynamic module -from the instructions for building the static module!
-Macos manual build
-These instructions have been tested on Macos 10.14.
-Clone this repo including submodules so you get correct version of -Raylib.
-git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/electronstudio/raylib-python-cffi
-Build and install Raylib from the raylib-c directory.
-cd raylib-python-cffi/raylib-c/src
-make
-sudo cp libraylib.a /usr/local/lib/libraylib.a
-cd ../..
-Build and install module.
-pip3 install cffi
-rm -rf build raylib/_raylib_cffi.*
-python3 raylib/build.py
-pip3 install wheel
-python3 setup.py install
-Raspberry Pi
-The integrated GPU hardware in a Raspberry Pi (“VideoCore”) is rather -idiosyncratic, resulting in a complex set of software options. Probably -the most interesting two options for Raylib applications are:
--
-
Use the Broadcom proprietary Open GL ES 2.0 drivers, installed by -Raspbian into
/opt/vc. These are 32-bit only, and currently X11 -doesn’t use these for its acceleration, so this is most suitable for -driving the entire HDMI output from one application with minimal -overhead (no X11).
-Use the more recent open-source
vc4-fkms-v3dkernel driver. This -can run in either 32-bit or 64-bit, and X11 can use these, so using -X11 is probably the more common choice here.
-
With option 2, the regular linux install instructions above should -probably work as-is.
-For option 1, then also follow the above instructions, but with these -modifications:
--
-
With
cmake, use -cmake -DWITH_PIC=on -DSTATIC=on -DSHARED=on -DPLATFORM='Raspberry Pi' ..
-
(See -here -for a Raspberry Pi wheel)
