pybgfx provides python bindings for bgfx. It uses no dependencies other than ctypes for Python.
Hello World:
See my other repo with bgfx examples ported to python! Link
Here are a list of the bgfx functions that have bindings that have been tested.

- Write a tutorial
- Installation instructions
- Implement the rest of the bgfx Examples
- Test on Mac

- Write documentation
TODO
Currently only works for Windows 64-bit.
pip install pybgfx
- Source Code: github.com/jnadro/pybgfx
For development purposes you can locally install this package to test. This can be done with the following pip command:
python -m pip install -e C:\path\to\this\directory\on\your\harddrive
If the src/bgfx, src/bx, src/bximg or src/glfw are empty after cloning this repo you will need to manually pull down these submodules like so. See Cloning a Project with Submodules here.
git submodule init
git submodule update
Building bgfx is straight forward on windows. Detailed instructions are here, but as a quick reminder:
cd bgfx..\bx\tools\bin\windows\genie --with-examples --with-dynamic-runtime vs2017start .build\projects\vs2017\bgfx.sln- Pick Release and x64 and build the whole solution.
Sometimes it is necessary to have to debug the bindings to see how the data is being passed between Python and C. This article shows how to do mixed mode debugging in Visual Studio.
- Build debug versions of the bgfx dll. Place bgfx-shared-libDebug.dll and bgfx-shared-libDebug.pdb in the pybgfx/pybgfx directory.
- Setup a python project in visual studio.
todo: fillout more details and set up an example project.
Requirements: pip install twine
- Clean pybgfx.egg-info, dist, and build directories.
- Bump version in setup.py
- python setup.py sdist
- twine upload dist/*
