Gobomatic is deprecated!

Goboscript is a new way to write Scratch Projects in text form.

Gobomatic

Gobomatic is a Python library to generate Scratch (3>) projects from Object-Oriented representation of Scratch projects in Python code.

Example

A build.py file is used to build the Scratch project. It also defines the Stage sprite.

build.py

from gobomatic import *

from main import Self as main

stage = Sprite(
    "Stage",
    costumes = [
        "assets/blank.svg"
    ]
)

Self = Project(
    sprites = [
        stage,
        main
    ]
)

Self.export("project.sb3", debug=True)

Each sprite is defined in its own Python file.

main.py

from gobomatic import *

Self = Sprite(
    name=__name__,
    costumes = [
        "assets/scratchcat.svg"
    ]
)

Self.WhenFlagClicked(
    Goto(-100, 0),
    Glide(0, 0, 0.5),
    Say("Hello, World!"),
)

Mentions

Thanks to @DavidBuchanan314, They too are working on a similar project but with different goals boiga which was the inspiration for this project.
