Install SDL2 and PyBoy?
-
I’m trying to implement PyBoy, a GameBoy Color Emulator written in Python, into a custom Ui. PyBoy has to be installed by downloading the project folder and then running setup.py, which requires modules that seem to not be supported by Pythonista. So I just moved the pyboy folder into site-packages-3, but running
from pyboy import pyboy
results in
ImportError: could not find any library for SDL2 (PYSDL2_DLL_PATH: unset)
And
pip install pysdl2
doesn’t change anything.
Is there any way to set PYSDL2_DLL_PATH, assuming pysdl2 can run in Pythonista?

@Drizzel, looks like an impossible mission:
”SDL is written in C, works natively with C++, and there are bindings available for several other languages, including C# and Python.”
We cannot install C libraries into Pythonista.
