This library will allow you to control the LEDs and read button presses on the `Adafruit Trellis
Board <https://www.adafruit.com/product/1616>`_. It will work with a single Trellis board, or
with a matrix of up to 8 Trellis boards.
For more details, see the `Adafruit Trellis Learn Guide <https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-trellis-diy-open-source-led-keypad>`_.
Dependencies
=============
This driver depends on:
* `Adafruit CircuitPython 2.0.0+ <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>`_
* `Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>`_
Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.
This is easily achieved by downloading
`the Adafruit library and driver bundle <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Bundle>`_.
Installing from PyPI
====================
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from
PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-trellis/>`_. To install for current user:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-trellis
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
.. code-block:: shell
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-trellis
To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
.. code-block:: shell
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-trellis
Usage Example
=============
See `examples/trellis_simpletest.py <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Trellis/examples/trellis_simpletest.py>`_ for full
usage example.
.. code:: python
import time
import busio
from board import SCL, SDA
from adafruit_trellis import Trellis
# Create the I2C interface
i2c = busio.I2C(SCL, SDA)
# Create a Trellis object for each board
trellis = Trellis(i2c) # 0x70 when no I2C address is supplied
# Turn on every LED
print('Turning all LEDs on...')
trellis.led.fill(True)
time.sleep(2)
# Turn off every LED
print('Turning all LEDs off...')
trellis.led.fill(False)
time.sleep(2)
