gpioRap - A wrapper class for the RPi.GPIO module
gpioRap simplifies interfacing with the RPi.GPIO module by introducing classes to manage common components, e.g. led & button.
Version history 0.1 - first beta release
Example - light and unlight an led when a button is pressed
import gpioRap as gpioRap import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
print "An example of gpioRap, when the button is pressed it will light the led, and pressed again it will turn off the led"
#Create GpioRap class using BCM pin numbers gpioRapper = gpioRap.GpioRap(GPIO.BCM)
#Create an LED, which should be attached to pin 17 led = gpioRapper.createLED(17) #Create a button, which should be monitored by pin 4, where a False is read when the button is pressed button = gpioRapper.createButton(4, False) try: #Loop while True: #Wait for the button to be pressed if button.waitForPress(3) == True: led.toggle()
except KeyboardInterrupt: #Cleanup gpioRapper.cleanup()
