A simple interface to everyday GPIO components used with Raspberry Pi
Project description
A simple interface to everyday GPIO components used with Raspberry Pi.
Created by Ben Nuttall of the Raspberry Pi Foundation, Dave Jones, and other contributors.
Latest release
The latest release is 1.0 released on 16th November 2015.
About
Component interfaces are provided to allow a frictionless way to get started with physical computing:
from gpiozero import LED
from time import sleep
led = LED(2)
while True:
led.on()
sleep(1)
led.off()
sleep(1)
With very little code, you can quickly get going connecting your components together:
from gpiozero import LED, Button from signal import pause led = LED(2) button = Button(3) button.when_pressed = led.on button.when_released = led.off pause()
The library includes interfaces to many simple everyday components, as well as some more complex things like sensors, analogue-to-digital converters, full colour LEDs, robotics kits and more.
Install
First, install the dependencies:
sudo apt-get install python-pip python3-pip python-spidev python3-spidev
Install with pip:
sudo pip install gpiozero sudo pip-3.2 install gpiozero
Both Python 3 and Python 2 are supported. Python 3 is recommended!
