+        Specify the GPIO pins that the buttons of the board are attached to.
+        You can designate as many pins as necessary.
+
+    :param bool pull_up:
+        If ``True`` (the default), the GPIO pins will be pulled high by
+        default. In this case, connect the other side of the buttons to
+        ground. If ``False``, the GPIO pins will be pulled low by default. In
+        this case, connect the other side of the buttons to 3V3. This
+        parameter can only be specified as a keyword parameter.
+
+    :param float bounce_time:
+        If ``None`` (the default), no software bounce compensation will be
+        performed. Otherwise, this is the length of time (in seconds) that the
+        buttons will ignore changes in state after an initial change. This
+        parameter can only be specified as a keyword parameter.
+
+    :param float hold_time:
+        The length of time (in seconds) to wait after any button is pushed,
+        until executing the :attr:`when_held` handler. Defaults to ``1``. This
+        parameter can only be specified as a keyword parameter.
+
+    :param bool hold_repeat:
+        If ``True``, the :attr:`when_held` handler will be repeatedly executed
+        as long as any buttons remain held, every *hold_time* seconds. If
+        ``False`` (the default) the :attr:`when_held` handler will be only be
+        executed once per hold. This parameter can only be specified as a
+        keyword parameter.
+
+    :param \*\*named_pins:
+        Specify GPIO pins that buttons of the board are attached to,
+        associating each button with a property name. You can designate as
+        many pins as necessary and use any names, provided they're not already
+        in use by something else.
