.. currentmodule:: gpiozero
|
|
|
|
The following recipes demonstrate some of the capabilities of the gpiozero
|
|
library. Please note that all recipes are written assuming Python 3. Recipes
|
|
*may* work under Python 2, but no guarantees!

Pin Numbering
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
This library uses Broadcom (BCM) pin numbering for the GPIO pins, as opposed
|
|
to physical (BOARD) numbering. Unlike in the `RPi.GPIO`_ library, this is not
|
|
configurable.
|
|
|
|
.. _RPi.GPIO: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/RPi.GPIO
|
|
|
|
Any pin marked ``GPIO`` in the diagram below can be used for generic
|
|
components:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: images/pin_layout.*
|
|
|
|
LED
|
|
===
|
|
|
|
.. image:: images/led.*
|
|
|
|
Turn an :class:`LED` on and off repeatedly::
|
|
|
|
from gpiozero import LED
|
|
from time import sleep
|
|
|
|
red = LED(17)
|
|
|
|
while True:
|
|
red.on()
|
|
sleep(1)
|
|
red.off()
|
|
sleep(1)
|
|
|
|
Alternatively::
|
|
|
|
from gpiozero import LED
|
|
from signal import pause
|
|
|
|
red = LED(17)
|
|
|
|
red.blink()
|
|
|
|
pause()
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Reaching the end of a Python script will terminate the process and GPIOs
|
|
may be reset. Keep your script alive with :func:`signal.pause`. See
|
|
:ref:`keep-your-script-running` for more information.

Button
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
.. image:: images/button.*
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
from gpiozero import Button
|
|
|
|
button = Button(2)
|
|
|
|
while True:
|
|
if button.is_pressed:
|
|
print("Button is pressed")
|
|
else:
|
|
print("Button is not pressed")
|
|
|
|
Wait for a button to be pressed before continuing::
|
|
|
|
from gpiozero import Button
|
|
|
|
button = Button(2)
|
|
|
|
button.wait_for_press()
|
|
print("Button was pressed")
|
|
|
|
Run a function every time the button is pressed::
|
|
|
|
from gpiozero import Button
|
|
from signal import pause
|
|
|
|
def say_hello():
|
|
print("Hello!")
|

|
|
blue_pot = MCP3008(channel=2)
|
|
|
|
while True:
|
|
led.red = red_pot.value
|
|
led.green = green_pot.value
|
|
led.blue = blue_pot.value
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, the following example is identical, but uses the
|
|
:attr:`~SourceMixin.source` property rather than a :keyword:`while` loop::
|
|
|
|
from gpiozero import RGBLED, MCP3008
|
|
from signal import pause
|
|
|
|
led = RGBLED(2, 3, 4)
|
|
red_pot = MCP3008(0)
|
|
green_pot = MCP3008(1)
|
|
blue_pot = MCP3008(2)
|
|
|
|
led.source = zip(red_pot.values, green_pot.values, blue_pot.values)
|
|
|
|
pause()
|
|
|
|
Please note the example above requires Python 3. In Python 2, :func:`zip`
|
|
doesn't support lazy evaluation so the script will simply hang.
