WiringPi for Python
===================

WiringPi: An implementation of most of the Arduino Wiring functions for
the Raspberry Pi.

WiringPi implements new functions for managing IO expanders.

Quick Install
=============

.. image:: https://badge.fury.io/py/odroid-wiringpi.svg
    :alt: PyPI version badge
    :target: https://badge.fury.io/py/odroid-wiringpi

The library is packaged on PyPI and can be installed with pip:

``pip install odroid-wiringpi``

Usage
=====

.. code:: python

    import odroid_wiringpi as wiringpi

    # One of the following MUST be called before using IO functions:
    wiringpi.wiringPiSetup()      # For sequential pin numbering
    # OR
    wiringpi.wiringPiSetupSys()   # For /sys/class/gpio with GPIO pin numbering
    # OR
    wiringpi.wiringPiSetupGpio()  # For GPIO pin numbering

**General IO:**

.. code:: python

    wiringpi.pinMode(6, 1)       # Set pin 6 to 1 ( OUTPUT )
    wiringpi.digitalWrite(6, 1)  # Write 1 ( HIGH ) to pin 6
    wiringpi.digitalRead(6)      # Read pin 6

**Setting up a peripheral:**

WiringPi supports expanding your range of available "pins" by setting up
a port expander. The implementation details of your port expander will
be handled transparently, and you can write to the additional pins
(starting from PIN\_OFFSET >= 64) as if they were normal pins on the Pi.

.. code:: python

    wiringpi.mcp23017Setup(PIN_OFFSET, I2C_ADDR)

This example was tested on a quick2wire board with one digital IO
expansion board connected via I2C:

.. code:: python

    wiringpi.mcp23017Setup(65, 0x20)
    wiringpi.pinMode(65, 1)
    wiringpi.digitalWrite(65, 1)

**Soft Tone:**

Hook a speaker up to your Pi and generate music with softTone. Also
useful for generating frequencies for other uses such as modulating A/C.

.. code:: python

    wiringpi.softToneCreate(PIN)
    wiringpi.softToneWrite(PIN, FREQUENCY)

**Bit shifting:**

.. code:: python

    wiringpi.shiftOut(1, 2, 0, 123)  # Shift out 123 (b1110110, byte 0-255) to data pin 1, clock pin 2

**Serial:**

.. code:: python

    serial = wiringpi.serialOpen('/dev/ttyAMA0', 9600)  # Requires device/baud and returns an ID
    wiringpi.serialPuts(serial, "hello")
    wiringpi.serialClose(serial)  # Pass in ID

**SPI:**

The ``wiringPiSPIDataRW()`` function needs to be passed a ``bytes``
object in Python 3. In Python 2, it takes a string. The following should
work in either Python 2 or 3:

.. code:: python

    wiringpi.wiringPiSPISetup(channel, speed)
    buf = bytes([your data here])
    retlen, retdata = wiringpi.wiringPiSPIDataRW(0, buf)

Now, ``retlen`` will contain the number of bytes received/read by the
call. ``retdata`` will contain the data itself, and in Python 3, ``buf``
will have been modified to contain it as well (that won't happen in
Python 2, because then ``buf`` is a string, and strings are immutable).

Manual Build
============

Get/setup repo
--------------

.. code:: bash

    git clone --recursive https://github.com/WiringPi/WiringPi-Python.git
    cd WiringPi-Python

Don't forget the ``--recursive``; it is required to also pull in the
WiringPi C code from its own repository.

Prerequisites
-------------

To rebuild the bindings you **must** first have installed ``swig``,
``python-dev``, and ``python-setuptools`` (or their ``python3-``
equivalents). WiringPi should also be installed system-wide for access
to the ``gpio`` tool.

.. code:: bash

    sudo apt-get install python-dev python-setuptools swig wiringpi

Build & install with
--------------------

``sudo python setup.py install``

Or Python 3:

``sudo python3 setup.py install``
