![]() ![]() If you have mercurial, git, and pip installed, it’s not too bad (on OSX, you need to install pyglet from HEAD because version 1.2, which switches from using Carbon to Quartz, has not yet been released): pip install hg+ So, I decided to give it a whirl and installed Nodebox-OpenGL (hereafter referred to as “Nodebox”). And although Nodebox lacks Processing’s vibrant community of developers and rich ecosystem (including geomerative and toxiclibs) Nodebox comes with a lot built-in ( flocking, particle systems, graphs), plus easy access to all the goodies you could ever want in Python. Nodebox lets you code in Python instead of Java. Lynn Cherny’s talk, Data Visualization with Nodebox ( Slides, Video) made an excellent case for using Nodebox as a framework for creative data visualization instead of Processing. The good news is: there’s lots of low-hanging fruit. ![]() This function is used for drawing and getting user input.TL DR: Nodebox-OpenGL gives you the sugar and power of Python and the ease of Processing, but with a significant speed penalty. The draw() function is called automatically by Processing 60 times per second. This function is used for doing the initial setup, such as size, and loading of resources such as image and sound files. The setup() function is called automatically by Processing, once at the very beginning of the sketch. However, most Processing sketches will use the predefined setup() and draw() functions. This code creates a 200x200 window, draws a blue background, changes the fill color to green, and then draws a circle in the middle of the screen. Press the run button in the Processing editor, and Processing will run your code. The easiest way to write Processing code is to simply call a series of functions. Android Processing sketches also have access to the underlying Android sensors and devices.Īdvanced users are not constrained to the Processing IDE they can set up Processing projects in Eclipse use proclipsing or alternatively use Sublime Text to build and run sketch via the processing-sublime package. The Android mode allows to run Processing sketches as Android applications with little or no changes in the code by automating tasks from project setup to.
