Python MSS

from mss import mss


# The simplest use, save a screenshot of the 1st monitor
with mss() as sct:
    sct.shot()

An ultra fast cross-platform multiple screenshots module in pure python using ctypes.

• Python 2 & 3 and PEP8 compliant, no dependency;
• very basic, it will grab one screen shot by monitor or a screen shot of all monitors and save it to a PNG file;
• but you can use PIL and benefit from all its formats (or add yours directly);
• integrate well with Numpy and OpenCV;
• it could be easily embedded into games and other softwares which require fast and plateforme optimized methods to grab screenshots;
• get the source code on GitHub;
• learn with a bunch of examples;
• you can report a bug;
• need some help? Use the tag python-mss on StackOverflow;
• and there is a complete, and beautiful, documentation :)
• MSS stands for Multiple ScreenShots;

Installation

You can install it with pip:

pip install --upgrade mss
