This module allows for accessing the current state of a connected Xbox controller via the XInput library on Windows.
Simply install using pip
pip install pyxboxcontroller
from pyxboxcontroller import XboxController, XboxControllerState
Connect to the controller with id (starting at 0) using:
controller = XboxController(id)
The current state of the controller can be gotten with:
state: XboxControllerState = controller.state
This returns an XboxControllerState object.
Some examples of accessing the states' values:
left_thumbstick_x: float = state.l_thumb_x
right_thumbstick_y: float = state.r_thumb_y
x_pressed: bool = state.x
lb_pressed: bool = state.lbAlternately the state of the button (e.g. x) can be gotten with:
button_pressed: bool = state.buttons["x"]
To see this code in action, why not try out:
from pyxboxcontroller.examples import example_state_gui
example_state_gui()
