Got an error when passing an io.BytesIO to the Font() Test Code:

import pygame
import pygame.font
import io

pygame.init()
pygame.font.init()

with open("fusion-pixel.otf","rb") as f:
    fnt=f.read()

f=io.BytesIO(fnt)

font=pygame.font.Font(f)
print(font.path)

Error:

pygame-ce 2.3.0.dev3 (SDL 2.26.4, Python 3.10.6)
AttributeError: '_io.BytesIO' object has no attribute 'name'

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "x:\python\pygame_test\font_path.py", line 13, in <module>
    font=pygame.font.Font(f)
SystemError: <built-in function __import__> returned a result with an exception set

@yunline thanks for the review. I think this fails with existing Freetype too. Not sure how to handle this. It should probably return None in this case.

@dr0id I tested yunline's example with freetype and it didn't fail.

It produced "<_io.BytesIO instance at 0x0000013EEE554860>"

@yunline @Starbuck5 updated, please review again

Currently, if a BytesIO object is passed, the path will be like "<_io.BytesIO object at 0x0000021FCE34C130>"

Is it better to set the path to None if the font is not loaded from a file? Since "<_io.BytesIO object at 0x0000021FCE34C130>" is not a path.

I agree, but I just copied the behavior from the existing module. Should I change both to return None in that case?

@dr0id On a quick scan through it looks like this changes the API for freetype.path, that change should be reflected in the docs and stubs for that module.

Also, is this ready for review? I hadn't checked it in a long time partially because it's marked as a draft.

Well, the existing documentation says that 'path' returns the path of the font.

Currently, if a BytesIO object is passed, the path will be like "<_io.BytesIO object at 0x0000021FCE34C130>"

In the case of a BytesIO object it returned some string which was no path. I just changed that to return None instead and either way the code would need to check if it is an actual file anyway before doing something with that.

But you are right, its not documented, will mention that this can be None.

In my opinion, font.path should return string, from which you are able to reconstruct given font. For fonts from non-file location (like from this io.BytesIO) could return "raw" paths. Such raw paths are used, for example in browsers. Such path (let's say of an image) contains the contents of this image in it (which in context of browsers, additional request for some server is unnecessary). An example of such raw image uri path:

Of course, it is long, but that's rather expected. If similar string would be returned by font_from_bytes.path, there would be necessity of implementing parsing such string. What format and whether this is even a good idea, I'm not sure, but this is some option for dealing with this.

In my opinion, font.path should return string, from which you are able to reconstruct given font. For fonts from non-file location (like from this io.BytesIO) could return "raw" paths.

Of course, it is long, but that's rather expected. If similar string would be returned by font_from_bytes.path, there would be necessity of implementing parsing such string. What format and whether this is even a good idea, I'm not sure, but this is some option for dealing with this.

You would need to help me out here, I have no idea how this can be done.

Sorry for my late response. It seems like github didn't send it. Would something like base64-encoded raw content of the font work? Maybe with some "magic text" at the start to mark the fact that the input isn't a real path... But I'm not sure if it is a good idea and rather I'm interested about feedback for it.

I would not support automatic copying of the entire contents of font files into an internal buffer for this, that would be a significant runtime and memory cost relative to the current cost of the font objects.

Really what we need is a way to copy the fonts, but it seems like SDL_ttf does not provide that.

For the purposes of this PR I'd be happy to have it stay how it was with a string representing the BytesIO object, or with None. The advantage of keeping it how it was with a string representing the BytesIO object is that it won't weigh on my conscience when I tell someone we're 100% compatible with pygame.

Another strategy could be to store a reference to the BytesIO object (increase its refcount, then decrease on dealloc). This would allow font.path to always be used to load a new font. However I'm not sure how I feel about keeping a reference to these objects, as it would prevent them from getting deallocated.

I'll close this PR, as it has been inactive for 2 years now (minus my review). Feel free to reopen if you come back and work on it!
