pygravity is a library used for calculating gravity in Python.

Installation

Either install from source: (Note that you will need a C compiler installed)

$ git clone https://github.com/gaming32/pygravity
$ cd pygravity
$ python setup.py install

Or install from pip:

$ python -m pip install python-gravity

Documentation

API documentation can be found at https://gaming32.github.io/pygravity/. Following is some short documentation.

Pygravity is made up of a math module (pygravity.math) for generic gravity-related math, and a subpackage (pygravity.twod) for doing 2D calculations.

For in-depth documentation please install the package and use pydoc (python -m pydoc -b).

pygravity.twod

This package has three lower-level modules for doing gravity math: pygravity.twod.vector, pygravity.twod.physics, and pygravity.twod.gravity. It also provides two higher-level modules for doing simple math: pygravity.twod.util and pygravity.twod.pygame_simulation. Most of pygravity.twod.pygame_simulation should be considered in beta and should not be used without examining it's code first.
