CircuitPython helper for LED colors and animations.

Project description

Introduction

Documentation Status Discord Build Status Code Style: Black

Perform a variety of LED animation tasks

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle.

Installing from PyPI

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-led-animation

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-led-animation

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-led-animation

Usage Example

import board
import neopixel
from adafruit_led_animation.animation.blink import Blink
import adafruit_led_animation.color as color

# Works on Circuit Playground Express and Bluefruit.
# For other boards, change board.NEOPIXEL to match the pin to which the NeoPixels are attached.
pixel_pin = board.NEOPIXEL
# Change to match the number of pixels you have attached to your board.
num_pixels = 10

pixels = neopixel.NeoPixel(pixel_pin, num_pixels)
blink = Blink(pixels, 0.5, color.PURPLE)

while True:
    blink.animate()

Building locally

Zip release files

To build this library locally you’ll need to install the circuitpython-build-tools package.

python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install circuitpython-build-tools

Once installed, make sure you are in the virtual environment:

source .venv/bin/activate

Then run the build:

circuitpython-build-bundles --filename_prefix circuitpython-led_animation --library_location .

Sphinx documentation

Sphinx is used to build the documentation based on rST files and comments in the code. First, install dependencies (feel free to reuse the virtual environment from above):

python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install Sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme

Now, once you have the virtual environment activated:

cd docs
sphinx-build -E -W -b html . _build/html

This will output the documentation to docs/_build/html. Open the index.html in your browser to view them. It will also (due to -W) error out on any warning like Travis will. This is a good way to locally verify it will pass.
