gpiozero
========
A simple interface to everyday GPIO components used with Raspberry Pi
Latest release
==============
The latest release is **v0.7.0 beta 2** released on 9th October 2015.
About
=====
With very little code, you can quickly get going connecting your physical
components together::
from gpiozero import LED, Button
led = LED(2)
button = Button(3)
button.when_pressed = led.on
button.when_released = led.off
The library includes interfaces to many simple everyday components, as well as
some more complex things like sensors, analogue-to-digital converters, full
colour LEDs, robotics kits and more.
Install
=======
Install with pip::
sudo pip install gpiozero
sudo pip-3.2 install gpiozero
Both Python 3 and Python 2 are supported. Python 3 is recommended!
