My Py

Provides the library functions for my Circuit Python efforts. I'm using it here on a LED lamp project for the Steelyard. https://github.com/sourcetonuts/SteelYard1

Usage:

To include in another project, use GIT Submodules https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Submodules

In your project's source directory: git submodule add https://github.com/sourcetonuts/MyPy

Which creates a directory MyPy w/ the library and a .gitsubmodules file that you need to check in.

API:

TouchMode API:

These 3 lines are supporting to pass a CapSense input into TouchMode

import board
import touchio
inputMode = touchio.TouchIn( board.A0 )

Create a TouchMode

This is how to create an instance of TouchMode.

# this will create TouchMode object w/ 3 states: 0, 1, & 2
import MyPy.touchmode
modeMachine = MyPy.touchmode.TouchMode( inputMode, 3 )

update() checks for a change in state and returns the state

This will check for a change in state and return that state

mode = modeMachine.update()

This will force a state change/

modeMachine.value = 1

RainMan API:

These 5 lines are supporting to pass a neopixel or other strip input into RainMan. 12 Leds Neopixel RGBW in this case.

import board
import neopixel
num_pixels = 12
strip = neopixel.NeoPixel( 
    board.D4, num_pixels, brightness = 1.0,
    auto_write = False, pixel_order= neopixel.RGBW )

Create a RainMan

This is how to create an instance of RainMan.

3 this will create a RainMan object
import MyPy.rainman
display = MyPy.rainman.RainMan( strip )

This will put a rainbow on the LED strip the passed in offest between 0 and 1 will define the 1st LED color with the rest of strip the rainbow from there.

palette_cycle() will put a rainbow on your LED strip

display.palette_cycle( offset )

show_static() will put a color on all LEDs in your LED strip

This will make all LEDs the static color at offset 0 - 1.

display.show_static( offset )

show_static_white() will make all LEDs white

This will make all LEDs white.

display.show_static_white()
