Pyvrui is a python interface for the VRUI library.

On Ubuntu, pyvrui can be installed from the KeckCAVES PPA.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:keckcaves/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-pyvrui

To manually build and install pyvrui you will need to install SWIG along with some other dependencies. On Ubuntu, you can run the following command.

sudo apt-get install build-essential swig2.0

NOTE: You must install the 2.0 version of SWIG (swig2.0). The earlier release (swig) will not work.

You will also need to have the VRUI development library installed. This is also available in KeckCAVES PPA.

sudo apt-get install libvrui3.1-dev

To build and install the python module, simply run the following commands in the project's root directory.

python ./setup.py build
sudo python ./setup.py install

See the examples/ directory in this repository for examples of using pyvrui.
