Description:

PyFFI 2.2.3

The Python File Format Interface, briefly PyFFI, is an open source
Python library for processing block structured binary files:

Simple: Reading, writing, and manipulating complex binary files
in a Python environment is easy! Currently, PyFFI supports the
NetImmerse/Gamebryo NIF and KFM formats, CryTek’s CGF format, the
FaceGen EGM format, the DDS format, and the TGA format.
Batteries included: Many tools for files used by 3D games, such
as optimizers, stripifier, tangent space calculator, 2d/3d hull
algorithms, inertia calculator, as well as a general purpose file
editor QSkope (using PyQt4), are
included.
Modular: Its highly modular design makes it easy to add support
for new formats, and also to extend existing functionality.


Download
Get PyFFI from Github,
or install it with:
easy_install -U PyFFI
or:
pip3 install PyFFI


Developing
To get the latest (but possibly unstable) code, clone PyFFI from its
Git repository:
git clone --recursive git://github.com/niftools/pyffi.git
virtualenv -p python3 venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
Be sure to use the –recursive flag to ensure that you also get all
of the submodules.
If you wish to code on PyFFI and send your contributions back upstream,
get a github account and fork PyFFI.


Testing
We love tests, they help guarantee that things keep working they way
they should. You can run them yourself with the following:
source venv/bin/activate
nosetest -v test
or:
source venv/bin/activate
py.test -v tests


Documentation
All our documentation is written in ReST and can be generated into HTML,
LaTeX, PDF and more thanks to Sphinx. You can generate it yourself:
source venv/bin/activate
cd docs
make html -a


Examples

The Blender NIF Plugin
QSkope PyFFI’s general purpose file editor.
The niftoaster (PyFFI’s “swiss army knife”) can for instance
optimize NIF files,
and much more.
