pyjacklib

Python bindings for libjack using ctypes, which allow you to write JACK client applications in Python.

The library provides a low-level, almost unaltered mapping of the libjack C API, plus a few additional convenience functions.

The source code repository contains a few example scripts to show its usage.

Note: pyjacklib as a stand-alone project is in beta-stage and the API may still change slightly before a 1.0 release. You have been warned!

Dependencies

To use the library, your system needs to have the following installed at run-time:

  • The JACK library
  • A Python 3 implementation, which supports ctypes

To build and install the library you need:

Building and Installing

You can download and install pyjacklib directly from PyPI using pip:

pip install pyjacklib

Or you can download the latest source archive or clone the git repository and run the following from inside the unpacked source directory resp. the root of your checkout:

python setup.py install

You can also build a wheel with:

pip wheel .

... and install it using pip install.
