uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.DebugLedDev module

class uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.DebugLedDev.DebugLedDev(n: int, colored: bool = True)

Bases: LedDev

Virtual debugging LED device.

This can be used to debug applications without hardware LED devices at hand.

Parameters

  • n – number of LEDs

  • colored – attempt to use colored output in console (requires package colored to be installed), default to True. For Windows, import package colorama and run colorama.init() before working with this package.

uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.GPIODev module

class uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.GPIODev.GPIODev(pins: List[int], pin_mode: str)

Bases: LedDev

Create a pin-based light strip. Each pin controls exactly one light pixel.

Parameters

  • pins – list of pin numbers to be contained in the strip

  • pin_mode – either “BCM” for RPi.GPIO.BCM or “BOARD” for RPi.GPIO.BOARD

Raises

ValueError – if pin_mode is none of the above

uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.I2CPixelDev module

exception uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.I2CPixelDev.ChipError

Bases: Exception

class uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.I2CPixelDev.I2CPixelDev(n: int, addr: int = 32, i2c_bus: int = 1)

Bases: LedDev

A pixel-based LED device operated via I2C IO Expander.

This module is customized to communicate with MCP20316 GPIO expander, but might be easily extended to other GPIO expanders.

This module was developed with idea of a hardware setup consisting of the microcontroller (Raspberry Pi) connected to GPIO expander over I2C which in turn controls individial LEDs. The GPIO expander is present in case of high power consumption of LEDs.

Parameters

  • n – number of LEDs

  • addr – I2C address of the chip, default 0x20

  • i2c_bus – ID of I2C bus on Raspberry, defaults to 1

Raises

ValueError – If n is bigger than max_n supported by underlying chip; max_n=16

class uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.I2CPixelDev.mcp23016(addr=32, active: str = 'HIGH', block1_direction: int = 0, block2_direction: int = 0, i2c_bus=1)

Bases: object

Helper class for interfacing with MCP23016 GPIO expander over I2C. Beware, commands sent in quick succession might cause the chip to error and ignore some instructions (important when rapidly blinking for example).

close()
pinAllOff()
pinOff(group, pin)
pinOn(group, pin)

Set pin active.

This and the following function take parameters:

Parameters

  • group – ID of group (0 or 1)

  • pin – pin ID in group (0-7)

pinRead(group, pin)
readINTCAP()
resetGP(group, pin)
resetIPOL(group, pin)
setGP(group, bitmask)

Set whole group of pins using bitmask.

Warning: Set pins as output (using block_direction in constructor, IODIR0/1) first!

Parameters

  • group – ID of group (0, 1)

  • bitmask – 8 bits - 0 bit on i-th position means turn off i-th pin, similarly with bit 1

setIPOL(group, pin)
setOLAT(group, bitmask)

Set whole group of pins using bitmask.

Warning: Set pins as output (using block_direction in constructor, IODIR0/1) first!

Parameters

  • group – ID of group (0, 1)

  • bitmask – 8 bits - 0 bit on i-th position means turn off i-th pin, similarly with bit 1

uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.LedDev module

class uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.LedDev.LedDev(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: ABC

Abstract class interface for the underlying hardware implementation of LED strip.

Pixel colors are written in RGB tuple format directly into derived objects using list index syntax. Call show() to propagate the written values. Some derived class accept parameter autoshow to control automatic show-after-write behaviour.

Example

ledd = DebugLedDev(16)
ledd[0] = (100, 200, 255)
print(ledd[0])

>>> (100,200,255)
_abc_impl = <_abc._abc_data object>
_n: int
abstract show()

uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.NeopixelDev module

class uun_iot_libledstrip.devices.NeopixelDev.NeopixelDev(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: NeoPixel, LedDev

See Adafruit NeoPixel. autowrite is always False, set it instead at level of LedStrip

_abc_impl = <_abc._abc_data object>
