Prendre une capture d'écran via un script Python sous Linux

Cela fonctionne sans avoir à utiliser scrot ou ImageMagick.

import gtk.gdk

sz = w.get_size()
print "The size of the window is %d x %d" % sz

if (pb != None):
    pb.save("screenshot.png","png")
    print "Screenshot saved to screenshot.png."
else:
    print "Unable to get the screenshot."

Celui-ci fonctionne sur X11, et peut-être aussi sur Windows (quelqu'un, s'il vous plaît vérifier). Nécessite PyQt4 :

import sys
from PyQt4.QtGui import QPixmap, QApplication
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
QPixmap.grabWindow(QApplication.desktop().winId()).save('test.png', 'png')

Juste pour être complet :Xlib - Mais c'est un peu lent lors de la capture de tout l'écran :

from Xlib import display, X
import Image #PIL

W,H = 200,200
dsp = display.Display()
try:
    root = dsp.screen().root
    raw = root.get_image(0, 0, W,H, X.ZPixmap, 0xffffffff)
    image = Image.fromstring("RGB", (W, H), raw.data, "raw", "BGRX")
    image.show()
finally:
    dsp.close()

On pourrait essayer de lancer certains types dans les fichiers de goulot d'étranglement dans PyXlib, puis de le compiler à l'aide de Cython. Cela pourrait augmenter un peu la vitesse.

Modifier : Nous pouvons écrire le cœur de la fonction en C, puis l'utiliser en python à partir de ctypes, voici quelque chose que j'ai piraté ensemble :

#include <stdio.h>
#include <X11/X.h>
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
//Compile hint: gcc -shared -O3 -lX11 -fPIC -Wl,-soname,prtscn -o prtscn.so prtscn.c

void getScreen(const int, const int, const int, const int, unsigned char *);
void getScreen(const int xx,const int yy,const int W, const int H, /*out*/ unsigned char * data) 
{
   Display *display = XOpenDisplay(NULL);
   Window root = DefaultRootWindow(display);

   XImage *image = XGetImage(display,root, xx,yy, W,H, AllPlanes, ZPixmap);

   unsigned long red_mask   = image->red_mask;
   unsigned long green_mask = image->green_mask;
   unsigned long blue_mask  = image->blue_mask;
   int x, y;
   int ii = 0;
   for (y = 0; y < H; y++) {
       for (x = 0; x < W; x++) {
         unsigned long pixel = XGetPixel(image,x,y);
         unsigned char blue  = (pixel & blue_mask);
         unsigned char green = (pixel & green_mask) >> 8;
         unsigned char red   = (pixel & red_mask) >> 16;

         data[ii + 2] = blue;
         data[ii + 1] = green;
         data[ii + 0] = red;
         ii += 3;
      }
   }
   XDestroyImage(image);
   XDestroyWindow(display, root);
   XCloseDisplay(display);
}

Et puis le fichier python :

import ctypes
import os
from PIL import Image

LibName = 'prtscn.so'
AbsLibPath = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)) + os.path.sep + LibName
grab = ctypes.CDLL(AbsLibPath)

def grab_screen(x1,y1,x2,y2):
    w, h = x2-x1, y2-y1
    size = w * h
    objlength = size * 3

    grab.getScreen.argtypes = []
    result = (ctypes.c_ubyte*objlength)()

    grab.getScreen(x1,y1, w, h, result)
    return Image.frombuffer('RGB', (w, h), result, 'raw', 'RGB', 0, 1)
    
if __name__ == '__main__':
  im = grab_screen(0,0,1440,900)
  im.show()
