screeninfo
Fetch location and size of physical screens.
Supported environments
- MS Windows
- MS Windows: Cygwin
- GNU/Linux: X11 (through Xinerama)
- GNU/Linux: DRM (experimental)
- OSX: (through PyOBJus)
I don't plan on testing OSX or other environments myself. For this reason, I strongly encourage pull requests.
Installation
pip install screeninfo
If you install it from sources:
python3 setup.py install
Usage
from screeninfo import get_monitors
for m in get_monitors():
print(str(m))Output:
Monitor(x=1920, y=0, width=1920, height=1080, name=None)
Monitor(x=0, y=0, width=1920, height=1080, name=None)
Forcing environment
In some cases (emulating X server on Cygwin etc.) you might want to specify the
driver directly. You can do so by passing extra parameter to get_monitors()
like this:
from screeninfo import get_monitors, Enumerator
for m in get_monitors(Enumerator.OSX):
print(str(m))Available drivers: windows, cygwin, x11, osx.
