Project description
Introduction
CircuitPython driver for the VEML6070 UV Index Sensor Breakout
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-veml6070To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-veml6070To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-veml6070Usage Example
import time
import board
import busio
from adafruit_veml6070 import VEML6070
with busio.I2C(board.SCL, board.SDA) as i2c:
uv = VEML6070(i2c)
# Alternative constructors with parameters
#uv = VEML6070(i2c, 'VEML6070_1_T')
#uv = VEML6070(i2c, 'VEML6070_HALF_T', True)
# take 10 readings
for j in range(10):
uv_raw = uv.uv_raw
risk_level = uv.get_index(uv_raw)
print('Reading: {0} | Risk Level: {1}'.format(uv_raw, risk_level))
