Introduction ============ .. image:: https://readthedocs.org/projects/adafruit-circuitpython-ads1x15/badge/?version=latest :target: https://circuitpython.readthedocs.io/projects/ads1x15/en/latest/ :alt: Documentation Status .. image :: https://img.shields.io/discord/327254708534116352.svg :target: https://adafru.it/discord :alt: Discord .. image:: https://travis-ci.org/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_ADS1x15.svg?branch=master :target: https://travis-ci.org/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_ADS1x15 :alt: Build Status Support for the ADS1x15 series of analog-to-digital converters. Available in 12-bit (ADS1015) and 16-bit (ADS1115) versions. Installation & Dependencies =========================== This driver depends on: * `Adafruit CircuitPython `_ * `Bus Device `_ Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This can be most easily achieved by downloading and installing `the Adafruit library and driver bundle `_ on your device. Installing from PyPI -------------------- On the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from PyPI `_. To install system-wide, use: .. code-block:: shell sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ads1x15 To install in a virtual environment in your current project: .. code-block:: shell mkdir project-name && cd project-name python3 -m venv .env source .env/bin/activate pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ads1x15 Usage Example ============= Single Ended ------------ .. code-block:: python import board import busio from adafruit_ads1x15.single_ended import ADS1015 i2c = busio.I2C(board.SCL, board.SDA) adc = ADS1015(i2c) while True: # channel 0 print(adc[0].value, adc[0].volts) Differential ------------ .. code-block:: python import board import busio from adafruit_ads1x15.differential import ADS1015 i2c = busio.I2C(board.SCL, board.SDA) adc = ADS1015(i2c) while True: # channel 0 - channel 1 print(adc[(0,1)].value, adc[(0,1)].volts) Contributing ============ Contributions are welcome! Please read our `Code of Conduct `_ before contributing to help this project stay welcoming. Building locally ================ To build this library locally you'll need to install the `circuitpython-build-tools `_ package. .. code-block:: shell python3 -m venv .env source .env/bin/activate pip install circuitpython-build-tools Once installed, make sure you are in the virtual environment: .. code-block:: shell source .env/bin/activate Then run the build: .. code-block:: shell circuitpython-build-bundles --filename_prefix adafruit-circuitpython-ads1x15 --library_location . Sphinx documentation -------------------- Sphinx is used to build the documentation based on rST files and comments in the code. First, install dependencies (feel free to reuse the virtual environment from above): .. code-block:: shell python3 -m venv .env source .env/bin/activate pip install Sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme Now, once you have the virtual environment activated: .. code-block:: shell cd docs sphinx-build -E -W -b html . _build/html This will output the documentation to ``docs/_build/html``. Open the index.html in your browser to view them. It will also (due to -W) error out on any warning like Travis will. This is a good way to locally verify it will pass.
