# pyobjc-framework-PHASE — Wrappers for the framework PHASE on macOS

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 630.4K/mo

## What it is and what it does

pyobjc-framework-phase is a thin wrapper layer that exposes Apple's PHASE audio framework to Python developers on macOS. It is built on top of pyobjc-core and pyobjc-framework-AVFoundation, allowing you to call PHASE framework methods and access its classes directly from Python code. The package does not include its own documentation; instead, it relies on Apple's official PHASE documentation and PyObjC's general translation guides to explain how to use the framework.

This package is intended for developers building macOS applications that need low-level access to Apple's audio processing capabilities. It is actively maintained, supports Python 3.10 through 3.15 (including free-threading builds), and carries no known security vulnerabilities. Installation is straightforward via pip, though it is restricted to macOS systems.

Use it for:

- Build macOS audio applications that require spatial audio or advanced audio processing via the PHASE framework.
- Integrate Apple's audio capabilities into cross-platform Python projects targeting macOS.
- Develop audio middleware or plugins for macOS that need direct access to system-level audio APIs.
- Create real-time audio processing tools on macOS using Python with native framework performance.

## Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts above — verify before relying.

Provides Python bindings to Apple's PHASE framework on macOS, enabling audio processing and spatial audio capabilities through PyObjC.

Yes, if you are developing on macOS and need access to the PHASE audio framework from Python. The package is actively maintained, carries no security issues, installs with low friction, and is licensed permissively. However, it is only useful on macOS; Windows and Linux users cannot use it. Verify that the PHASE framework's capabilities match your audio processing requirements before committing.

## Install

pip install pyobjc-framework-phase
uv add pyobjc-framework-phase
poetry add pyobjc-framework-phase

## Installing pyobjc-framework-PHASE

Before you install: Low friction installation with a pure-wheel distribution. Actively maintained as of 3 days ago with recent commits and no known vulnerabilities. Requires Python 3.10 or later.

License in practice: MIT license permits unrestricted use, modification, and distribution with minimal restrictions—suitable for both open-source and proprietary projects.

Quickstart:

pip install pyobjc-framework-phase

import PHASE
# Access PHASE framework classes and methods through the binding

macOS operating system required; PHASE is an Apple framework and not available on other platforms.

Verify before relying:

- Specific audio processing capabilities and use cases within the PHASE framework beyond the generic wrapper description.
- Whether spatial audio features are fully exposed through the Python bindings or have limitations.
- Performance characteristics and latency expectations for real-time audio applications.
