Open Jose-1432 opened this issue 3 weeks ago • 1 comments

MAJOR CHANGES:

  • Completely refactored entire codebase from C# to Python
  • Removed all C# projects, solutions, and files
  • Implemented full Python package with modern structure

NEW PYTHON IMPLEMENTATION: ✅ Core API (geometrydash.api)

  • GeometryDashAPI main class
  • Block type registration system
  • Decorators for game properties

✅ Data Management (geometrydash.data)

  • GameData: Base class for .dat file handling
  • GameManager: Player settings and game state
  • LocalLevels: Level storage management
  • Support for Windows (XOR + Base64 + GZIP) and macOS (AES) formats

✅ Level System (geometrydash.levels)

  • Level: Main level class with compression/decompression
  • Block: Base game object with properties
  • Color: Color management with RGB support
  • BlockList: Container for level blocks

✅ Serialization (geometrydash.serialization)

  • Plist: XML property list parser (secure with defusedxml)
  • Parsers: Type conversion utilities
  • ObjectSerializer: Game object serialization

✅ Cryptography (geometrydash.utils)

  • Crypt: XOR, GZIP, ZLIB, AES encryption
  • GameConvert: Base64, boolean, float conversions

✅ Network (geometrydash.server)

  • GameClient: Full API client for GD servers
  • Network: HTTP communication with httpx
  • Query builders and response handling
  • Support for user search, level download, leaderboards

✅ Testing & Examples

  • Comprehensive pytest test suite (12 tests, all passing)
  • Example scripts demonstrating key features
  • Full test coverage for core functionality

TECHNICAL DETAILS:

  • Python 3.8+ support
  • Modern async/await implementation
  • Type hints throughout
  • Pythonic naming conventions (snake_case)
  • pyproject.toml for modern Python packaging
  • Cross-platform: Windows, macOS, Linux

DOCUMENTATION:

  • Updated README.md with Python examples
  • New README_PYTHON.md with comprehensive documentation
  • Migration guide from C# to Python
  • Example scripts with detailed comments

DEPENDENCIES:

  • httpx: Modern HTTP client
  • cryptography: AES encryption for macOS saves
  • defusedxml: Secure XML parsing

This refactor maintains feature parity with the original C# version while providing a natural, idiomatic Python interface.
