<p>The joystick module manages the joystick devices on a computer.
Joystick devices include trackballs and video-game-style
gamepads, and the module allows the use of multiple buttons and &quot;hats&quot;.
Computers may manage multiple joysticks at a time.</p>
<p>Each instance of the Joystick class represents one gaming device plugged
into the computer. If a gaming pad has multiple joysticks on it, then the
joystick object can actually represent multiple joysticks on that single
game device.</p>
<p>For a quick way to initialise the joystick module and get a list of Joystick instances
use the following code:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">pygame</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">joystick</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">init</span><span class="p">()</span>
<span class="n">joysticks</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="p">[</span><span class="n">pygame</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">joystick</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">Joystick</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">x</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="k">for</span> <span class="n">x</span> <span class="ow">in</span> <span class="nb">range</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">pygame</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">joystick</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">get_count</span><span class="p">())]</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The following event types will be generated by the joysticks</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">JOYAXISMOTION</span> <span class="n">JOYBALLMOTION</span> <span class="n">JOYBUTTONDOWN</span> <span class="n">JOYBUTTONUP</span> <span class="n">JOYHATMOTION</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>And in pygame 2, which supports hotplugging:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">JOYDEVICEADDED</span> <span class="n">JOYDEVICEREMOVED</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Note that in pygame 2, joysticks events use a unique &quot;instance ID&quot;. The device index
passed in the constructor to a Joystick object is not unique after devices have
been added and removed. You must call <a class="reference internal" href="#pygame.joystick.Joystick.get_instance_id" title="pygame.joystick.Joystick.get_instance_id"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Joystick.get_instance_id()</span></code></a> to find
the instance ID that was assigned to a Joystick on opening.</p>
<p>The event queue needs to be pumped frequently for some of the methods to work.
So call one of pygame.event.get, pygame.event.wait, or pygame.event.pump regularly.</p>
<p>To be able to get joystick events and update the joystick objects while the window
is not in focus, you may set the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">SDL_JOYSTICK_ALLOW_BACKGROUND_EVENTS</span></code> environment
variable. See <a class="reference internal" href="pygame.html#environment-variables"><span class="std std-ref">environment variables</span></a> for more details.</p>

<p>Returns the number of input axes are on a Joystick. There will usually be
two for the position. Controls like rudders and throttles are treated as
additional axes.</p>
<p>The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pygame.JOYAXISMOTION</span></code> events will be in the range from <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-1.0</span></code>
to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">1.0</span></code>. A value of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">0.0</span></code> means the axis is centered. Gamepad devices
will usually be <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-1</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">0</span></code>, or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">1</span></code> with no values in between. Older
analog joystick axes will not always use the full <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-1</span></code> to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">1</span></code> range,
and the centered value will be some area around <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">0</span></code>.</p>
<p>Analog joysticks usually have a bit of noise in their axis, which will
generate a lot of rapid small motion events.</p>
