sdl2.ext
The sdl2.ext.image
module provides some simple functions for importing images as SDL surfaces and exporting SDL surfaces to image files.
The basic functions load_bmp
and save_bmp
load and save BMP files, and are guaranteed to be available on all systems supported by PySDL2. The load_img
function can be used to import additional image formats (e.g. JPEG, PNG), but requires that the SDL_image library is installed on the target system (can be installed as a Python dependency with pysdl2-dll
on platforms that support it).
In addition to importing images from files, this module also provides the pillow_to_surface
function for converting Image
objects from the Pillow Python library to SDL surfaces.
