Popsicle: Python integration for JUCE with pybind11



Overview
Popsicle is a groundbreaking project designed to extend the accessibility of JUCE by seamlessly integrating it with Python. Leveraging the power of pybind11, Popsicle offers a Pythonic interface to the JUCE framework. This integration allows developers to utilize JUCE in a manner similar to using Qt with PySide, offering a simplified yet robust approach.
Popsicle serves multiple purposes, each contributing to its significance in the development landscape.


Features

Effortless JUCE App Prototyping: Effortlessly prototype JUCE apps. Popsicle streamlines the development process, allowing developers to focus on creativity by eliminating the need for intricate build configurations and setups.
Python Scripting Integration: Seamlessly integrate Python scripting by embedding Popsicle into existing JUCE applications as a dedicated module. Extend and enhance your JUCE projects with the flexibility and ease of Python within the familiar JUCE framework.
Unit Testing Made Easy: Ensure the robustness and reliability of JUCE classes with Popsicle’s built-in unit testing support. Leverage Python’s testing infrastructure for a seamless testing process.
Cross-Platform Compatibility: Enjoy cross-platform compatibility with Popsicle. Work consistently across Windows, macOS, and Linux environments for a unified development experience.

Popsicle stands as a humble yet powerful solution, aimed at enriching the development experience with JUCE by simplifying, extending, and enhancing its integration with Python.


Example Usage
A single 80 lines script is better than thousand of words:
import popsicle as juce


class MainContentComponent(juce.Component, juce.Timer):
def __init__(self):
juce.Component.__init__(self)
juce.Timer.__init__(self)

self.setSize(600, 400)
self.startTimerHz(60)

def __del__(self):
self.stopTimer()

def paint(self, g):
g.fillAll(juce.Colours.black)

random = juce.Random.getSystemRandom()
rect = juce.Rectangle[int](0, 0, 20, 20)

for _ in range(100):
g.setColour(juce.Colour.fromRGBA(
random.nextInt(256),
random.nextInt(256),
random.nextInt(256),
255))

rect.setCentre(random.nextInt(self.getWidth()), random.nextInt(self.getHeight()))
g.drawRect(rect, 1)

def timerCallback(self):
if self.isVisible():
self.repaint()


class MainWindow(juce.DocumentWindow):
component = None

def __init__(self):
super().__init__(
juce.JUCEApplication.getInstance().getApplicationName(),
juce.Desktop.getInstance().getDefaultLookAndFeel()
.findColour(juce.ResizableWindow.backgroundColourId),
juce.DocumentWindow.allButtons,
True)

self.component = MainContentComponent()

self.setResizable(True, True)
self.setContentNonOwned(self.component, True)
self.centreWithSize(800, 600)
self.setVisible(True)

def __del__(self):
if self.component:
del self.component

def closeButtonPressed(self):
juce.JUCEApplication.getInstance().systemRequestedQuit()


class Application(juce.JUCEApplication):
window = None

def getApplicationName(self):
return "JUCE-o-matic"

def getApplicationVersion(self):
return "1.0"

def initialise(self, commandLine):
self.window = MainWindow()

def shutdown(self):
if self.window:
del self.window


if __name__ == "__main__":
juce.START_JUCE_APPLICATION(Application)
As easy as that ! You will find more example on JUCE usage in the examples folder.
