Actually, this isn't so much a fix as a re-working of RGBLED. This
renames the `rgb` property to `color` because that's what the property
really represents (combined with `picamera.Color` this lets you do stuff
like `rgb_led.color = Color('red')`), and simplifies the internals of
the class. It also adds the common `close` method and context manager
capabilities.
Finally, it corrects an error I hadn't noticed earlier where
PWMOutputDevice isn't properly cleaning up PWM threads on close.
Make MotionSensor more responsive by effectively removing the averaging
queue. Also add note on how to smooth out "jittery" PIR sensors by
increasing the queue length back up to 5.
Something fishy going on with the Markdown for the code examples in the
Notes page. Might be down to the indentation of the list item's content?
The vim markdown parser seems to think so anyway; let's see what
pythonhosted.org says ...
This refactors the GPIOOutputDevice to have an internal `_write` method
similar to the `_read` method used to grab the value of a GPIO device.
This is used for simple 1s and 0s until we get to PWMOutputDevice which
replaces the value with the PWM device's duty cycle level. As a result,
all the DigitalOutputDevice base methods (including blink) "just work".
This commit also, for the moment, removes min_pwm and max_pwm because
I'm not 100% certain how they should interact with the notion of
is_active at the moment. They'll probably get added back in at some
point but I need a bit more time to think about it!
This isn't a full fix but I can't seem to reproduce the issue in #50 at
the moment. So for now this just ensures that exceptions in the
constructors get cleaned up properly (so they don't block future
construction attempts against the same pin)
Big push on getting the docs cleaned up before 1.0. Proper wrapping of
everything so it's decently viewable from the command line (or as
decently viewable as markdown can be - the tables will never look great
from the command line).
Only one code change in this PR: rename bouncetime to bounce_time
(everything else is PEP-8, so this probably should be too) and change
its units to seconds from milliseconds (again, all other durations in
the library are in seconds, so it feels inconsistent that this one
isn't; for the sake of those who won't read the docs - which is most
people - I figure consistency helps with guessing!).
Permit devices to be explicitly closed and used as context managers.
Also deal with cleanup properly at script end and ensure objects don't
step on the global cleanup function.
