Backend: `pycairo`

The pycairo backend allows to generate pre-configured ImageSurface objects, see pycairo documentation.

import cairo
from bewegung import Video

v = Video(width = 480, height = 270, seconds = 1.0)

@v.sequence()
class Foo:

    @v.layer(canvas = v.canvas(backend = 'cairo'))
    def bar(self, canvas): # a pyrairo ImageSurface, mode ARGB32

        ctx = cairo.Context(canvas)

        ctx.move_to(5, 5)
        ctx.line_to(v.width - 5, v.height - 5)
        ctx.set_source_rgba(1, 0, 0, 1)
        ctx.set_line_width(3)
        ctx.stroke()

        return canvas

v.reset()
v.render_frame(v.time(0))

Similar to cairo.ImageSurface, the function call v.canvas(backend = 'cairo') accepts the following additional keyword arguments:

format, by default cairo.FORMAT_ARGB32. If a format other than ARGB32 is specified, the layer method is supposed to return a Pillow Image object of mode 'RGBA' instead of an ImageSurface object, i.e. in this case the conversion to Pillow’s image format is left to the user. Alternatively, the user may also convert the non-ARGB32 ImageSurface object to an ARGB32 ImageSurface object before returning it from the layer method.
width, width of the video by default
height, height of the video by default
