pygame-ui-toolkit 1.0.5
A package for creating UI elements in pygame
License: MIT
Requires Python: >=3.6

# pygame-ui-toolkit

pygame-ui-toolkit is a python library for easily creating UI elements with Pygame.

It makes it easy to add buttons, sliders, text inputs and more UI components to any pygame project.

# Installation

Run the following command to install pygame-ui-toolkit via pip:

    pip install pygame-ui-toolkit

# Usage

Once installed, import the package into your project by entering the following line at the top of your script.

    import pygame_ui_toolkit

There is no official documentation for this package.

The scripts in the `examples` directory should show you how to use the package. They detail the creation and use of all core UI elements and the presets.

Docstrings and type hints have been included within the scripts in the project, which should outline what each function and class does alongside the kinds of arguments that should be passed into them.

As a general tip, always remember to call an element's `update()` method **once per frame**. This is shown in the following example:

    import pygame
    import pygame_ui_toolkit

    # Create the button
    button = pygame_ui_toolkit.button.RectButton(...)

    # Main loop
    while True:
        # Update the button
        button.update()

        for event in pygame.event.get():
            if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
                quit()
