Description

======== gpiozero ======== .. image:: https://badge.fury.io/py/gpiozero.svg :target: https://badge.fury.io/py/gpiozero :alt: Latest Version 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. 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, update your repositories list:: sudo apt-get update Then install the package of your choice. Both Python 3 and Python 2 are supported. Python 3 is recommended:: sudo apt-get install python3-gpiozero or:: sudo apt-get install python-gpiozero Documentation ============= Comprehensive documentation is available at https://gpiozero.readthedocs.org/.
